Measurement Rules (9)
Where components are to be enumerated, the number of components is to be stated.
The length of linear components measured is their extreme length, over all obstructions.
The area measured for each type of floor finish is the surface area of the floor to which the finish is to be applied.
The area measured for finishings to swimming pool tanks is the area of the swimming pool on plan, measured to the internal face of the swimming pool walls.
Other cost-significant components are to be described and measured by area (m2) or linear measurement (m), or enumerated (nr) separately, as appropriate.
Descriptions should include the amount of any PC sum included in the unit rates applied to the item.
Curved work is to be described and identified separately.
Work to existing buildings is to be described and identified separately.
Where the contractor is only responsible for designing specific elements and/or components of the building project (i.e. not the entire building project), contractor-designed work is to be described and identified separately.
