Notes On Costing For Civil Engineering Projects
Involve large amount of uncertainty owing to
nature of ground conditions, temporary works, etc.

Notes On Costing For Civil Engineering Projects
Bill of quantities comprise large quantities of comparatively few items.
Quantities usually approximate and
remeasurement required when work is actually carried out.
Different method of measurement is used for civil engineering works (CESMM).

Notes On Costing For Civil Engineering Projects
Costing can be carried out by breaking
down works into smaller cost items and price the quantities against a rate.

Notes On Costing For Civil Engineering Projects
Costing similar to building works but more
towards method of construction rather than material cost.
