ItemunitMethod of measurement
Site levelingLump sumIt takes into consideration all site leveling including the excavation, fill, till reach 0+B.M according to design drawing.
Excavation (cut)m3Measured by 2 methods :1- footings areas according to blinding area * depth of excavation according to drawings.2- external dimensions of the building *depth of footings
Fill (backfill)m3= excavation – concrete work for footings and columns under ground level. = ground plan *depth of ground beams – (concrete for ground beams and ground floors)
Measurement of works / Earth Work
Concrete works measures engineering measurement
All openinng more than 0.1m2 or 0.1 m3 are deducted.
The concrete works more than the areas, volumes in the drawings doesn’t included.
Measurement of works / concrete works
Measurement of works / concrete worksItemunitMethod of measurement
Blinding concrete, ground concrete, benching, and slabs concrete with fixed thickness
m2= length * width (the thickness should be specified in the drawings and specifications) Ribs blocks don’t subtract from the slabs concrete.
Footings, columns, ground beams, stairs, and canopies,
m3= length*width*thickness-Ground beams are measured from its connection with columns- concrete stars include the stairs , steps, stair slabs, walls supporting the stairs.
Concrete decoration works as curves.
No.The dimensions must be specified in the drawings.
Measurement of works / block worksItemunitMethod of measurement
Block worksm2= length * width (the thickness should be specified in the drawings and specifications) - subtracting all openings more than 0.1 cm2.
Measurement of works / Plastering/ painting works
ItemunitMethod of measurement
Length * widthM2= length * width (engineering measurement after subtracting the openings, more than 0.1 m2) - the area is measured above the skirting (terrazzo chips)
Internal plastering = walls + slabs
Measurement of works / tilling works
ItemunitMethod of measurement
Terrazzo, marble, ceramic
m2= length * width (engineering measurement)
Measurement of works / Plastering/ painting works
ItemunitMethod of measurement
Plastering & painting
M2= length * width (engineering measurement after subtracting the openings, more than 0.1 m2) - the area is measured above the skirting (terrazzo chips)
Internal plastering = walls + ceiling
Measurement of works / Doors
ItemunitMethod of measurement
DoorsNo.The exact dimensions should be specified in the design drawings.Sometimes carpentry works measured in m2 or m length according to the item described in BOQ.
Measurement of works / Windows
ItemunitMethod of measurement
windowsNo.The exact dimensions should be specified in the design drawings.Sometimes carpentry works measured in m2 or m length according to the item described in BOQ.
Measurement of works / electrical & sanitary works
ItemunitMethod of measurement
Electrical and sanitary pieces / accessories
No.The dimensions should be specified clearly in the design drawings as the sockets, lamps, fluorescent lighting,…etc(W.C. , washing basins, sinks, manholes, pumps…etc)
pipingM.RThe dimension and details should be specified in the drawings, as (cables, pipes, ..etc)
Works with special detail
Lumps sumAll details should be specified in the drawings, as earthing, gas network,
Bill of Quantities The results in the quantities book, are recorded in the
BOQ table. It is preferable to add 5-10% percentage on the
quantities for contingency to avoid any errors or any.
