ABSTRACT

The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors formally abolished the standard Quantity Surveyors fee scales with effect from 31 December 1998. To date the Institution has not published a guidance booklet to assist practitioners in compiling fee proposals and we believe that they are unlikely to do so. The last standard Quantity Surveyors fee scales, although now out of date, are nevertheless repeated below in order to assist the reader. Information considered to be relevant to Landscape and Extemal works projects has been extracted from the published document and summarized. For the sake of clarity and brevity, scale descriptions are listed, followed by notes common to all, and finally by the scales themselves.
