Overview

CESSM 3 Explained provides a detailed and highly illustrated guide to the use of the new civil engineering standard methods of measurements. This book, prepared by a practitioner with many years experience in the measurement of civil engineering work, provides a detailed guide to the standard method, and also lists alternative methods of measurement where circumstances require it. General information on measurement is included but the core of the book lies in its full coverage of all the sections in the standard method, including explanations of the measurement conventions, drawings and model take-offs (with notes), model bills (with abstracts if needed) and a standard library of descriptions. The book is written and presented in a style that will be understood and appreciated by working quantity surveyors, civil engineers and students.
