ABSTRACT
Building Measurement provides a practical guide to the purpose and techniques of construction measurement, based on the current edition of the standard of measurement, SMM7.
The introductory section identifies established practices in measurement, including booking dimensions and documents production, and provides an overview of the new technologies associated with computer-based methods.
