Method of Measurement of Construction Works is becoming increasingly used in civil engineering works, under the NEC, ICE and FIDIC forms of contract, both in the GCC and overseas.
It has a format designed for more efficient costing and ease of computerization and has features that differ from other forms of measurement. It is therefore essential that both engineers and quantity surveyors are familiar with its form and content.
The Course is designed to provide knowledge, skills, and an additional qualification to a career in construction management or quantity surveying. In addition to the critical site measurement skills under CESMM, other areas of study include; BOQ preparation, Claims analysis, review, and recommendation.
Measurement is the base upon which decisions are made and underpins all the work we do. It is not just about numbers; it is about the thinking and analysis they enable.
Strategic Axis advocates international measurement standards so we can have more authentic cross-border comparison and regulation, and produce a truly global industry.
The course includes a deep understanding of Civil Engineering Standard Method of Measurement (commonly known as CESMM3) sets out a procedure for the preparation of a bill of quantities for civil engineering works, for pricing and for expression and measurement of quantities of work.
