For our first ICI (Introduction to Industry) and ITD (Introduction to Drawing), in a group of six, we were to carry out a research on quantity surveyors and give a presentation about what is their job about and what they do.
Quantity Surveying Course
1. -> A quantity surveying Course (QSC) is a construction industry professional with expert knowledge on construction costs and contracts.
-> Qualified professional quantity surveyors are known as Chartered Surveyors.
-> Quantity surveyors provide expert advice on construction costs.
2. RESPONSIBILITY & ROLE
-> Quantity Surveying Course help to ensure that proposed projects are affordable and offer good value for money, helping the client and the design team assess and compare different options, and then track variations, ensuring that costs remain under control as the project progresses.
-> Quantity surveyors can specialise in a specific aspect of construction costs, or in a particular type of construction.
3. Cost Planning
-> Quantity Surveying Course the cost plans evolve through the life of the project, developing in detail and accuracy as more information becomes available about the nature of the design, and then actual prices are provided by contractors and suppliers.
-> Initial cost appraisal, Elemental cost plan, Approximate quantities cost plan, Pre-tender estimate, Tender pricing document, Contract sum, Contract sum analysis, Final account
4. Green Figure Technique ()
-> Quantity Surveying Course Service Quantity Take-Off and BOQ Preparation for all the items related to Civil and MEP Works based on the Drawings and Specification for any type of projects in GCC
-> GFT company started in 2005 intending to serve the market with the latest technologies.
-> GFT is a team of IT and Construction experts, and with their diverse capabilities, they are here to offer you the best construction software and service in the Middle East.
Introduction to Estimation, Costing, Quantity Surveying, SOR, DSR, DAR, PAR, Cost Index, Estimates - Approximate, Detailed, Schedule of Rates, Rate Analysis, Kerala PWD cost index, Longwall-Shortwall method; Centreline Method; IS 1200; CPWD Specifications; Determination of Quantities of different Items of Building Works; Earthwork, Brickwork, Masonrywork, Concreting, Centering and Shuttering, Plastering, Painting, woodwork, Levelling, Lead, Lift, Mid-section, Trapezoidal, Prismoidal formula.

Presentation on practical approach of costing in construction industry has been prepared with the objective of spreading and sharing knowledge of flow of costing and key areas among industry, professionals and other related people.
it may be very useful to understand the basic concepts and approach of costing of this fastest growing industry.
For civil engineer quantity surveying and estimation costing is very important for any project.
In this presentation we study about the Important terms used in estimation and costing, contingencies, work charge establishment, tools and plants, etc. types of estimates and their functions.
A brief introduction and overview of construction management and its application. A guidance for civil engineers teachers and students.

The capacity of doing work by an artisan or skilled labour in the form of quantity of work per day is known as the task work or out turn of the labour.
The out-turn of work per artisan varies to some extent according to the nature, size, height, situation, location, etc., In bigger cities where specialized and experienced labour is available the out-turn is greater than small towns and country sides. In well organized work less labour is required.

12. 1. Architectural drawings
v It
is
a
technical
drawing
of
a
building
that
an
architect
draw
according
to
the
clients’
requirements.
ü QS
will
have
to
then
estimate
the
cost
of
the
building
while
mechanical
engineers
&
structural
engineers
prepare
the
structural
requirements
etc.
13. 2. Tender drawings
When
the
clients
agree
to
the
preliminary
drawings,
the
drawings
are
then
proceeded
to
a
more
developed
one
&
with
clearer
details.
Tender
drawings
are
therefore
completed:
developed
architectural
drawings
+
the
structural
engineer’s

+
M&E

If
clients
disagree,
redesign
until
meets

ü These
are
then
ready
for

and
QS
will
quantify

14. Bills of
Quantities (BQ)
• provides
fair
&
accurate
system
for

analysis
• assists
tenderes
in
the
calculation
of

• issued
