Subject Measurement (Builders)
Pre-requisites NIL
Aims and Objectives
To introduce the basic skills of measurement. Conditions of contract will generally nominate a set of rules of measurement and so the development of measurement skills devolves on the correct interpretation of these rules as well as with unambiguous and repeatable sets of measurements resulting in quantities of work in place.
Learning Outcomes
Understand and apply the standard rules for measurement. Standard Method of Measurement (SMM).
Interpret drawings and recognise items of work in place and categories then into elements.
Demonstrate the booking of dimensions in a neat and orderly fashion using the Trade-by-Trade Method of taking-off.
Understand the difference between the Trade-by-Trade and Group methods of taking-off.
Prepare of draft Bill of Quantities (BQ) for some of the more basic forms of construction.
Assessment Assignment and Written Examination

Subject Measurement (M&E)
Pre-requisites Nil
Aims and Objectives
To interpretation of rules of measurement by further study of SMM7 and CESMM.
recognising items of work in place by the use of more complex forms of construction, particularly temporary works such as support, inserts, testing and commission.
Learning Outcomes
Apply and interpret the proper application of rules of measurement to complex structures
Recognise items of work in place whether or not these are displayed formally on architectural or engineering drawings.
Have a working knowledge of the Trade-by-Trade method of taking-off and billing
Understand the processes of the Group Method of taking-off and the subsequent processes which lead to the production of a bill of quantities.
Understand the computerisation of the measurement process.
