ABSTRACT
These sections are structured around methods of measurement for Civil Engineering Work and Highway Works and gives ‘trade by trade' unit rates for those circumstances where the application of unit rates to measured quantities is possible and practical. Again, it is stressed that the rates are exclusive of the items costed with preliminaries and of financing charges, head office overheads and profit. Both materials and plant costs are adjusted to allow a normal level of discount, with allowances for materials wastage and plant usage factors.
