Description
We have come to expect excellence from the author and this work continues his record. A necessary manual for engineer, project manager, quantity surveyor and student alike. Building Technology and Management, reviewing a previous edition.
This third edition of the handbook has been specifically produced to be used alongside the Civil Engineering Standard Method of Measurement, third edition - CESMM3
The handbook has been completely updated and includes new text to bring it in line with the changes and new material contained within CESMM3. The handbook explains the amendments which have been made to bring CESMM3 into line with the ICE Conditions of Contract: 6th edition and with the changes in British Standards. It also covers in detail the rationale behind the new method of measurement for water mains renovation and the completely new Class Z covering simple building works incidental to civil engineering works.
The CESMM3 Handbook will remain indisputably the essential reference tool for all users of the CESMM and students of civil engineering and quantity surveying. Contents
