Aims
To consolidate learning to date in the subject of measurement using information technology; and to choose among available measurement protocols to quantify complex construction and engineering projects.
Learning Outcomes
1.
Appraise and apply the rules of the standard method of measurement to prepare project documentation related to complex construction, building services and civil
engineering projects.
2.
Evaluate emerging practices of the Quantity Surveyor in relation to sustainable design, and environmental and performance considerations.
3.
Critically evaluate the building information modelling protocols, processes, and software appropriate to the role of the Quantity Surveyor / Estimator working in a collaborative environment throughout the project life cycle.
