Synopsis

This popular and well-established book has been rewritten to conform to the seventh edition of the Standard Method of Measurement of Building Works (SMM7) The author explains in detail the practical measurement of building works, using some twenty-five worked examples covering all the main building components, supplemented by extensive explanatory notes that clarify the basic principles and show how they are best interpreted and applied. As in previous editions, a chief aim has been to emphasise the usefulness of the book as a practical student guide to the measurement of relatively simple building work.
