Measurement Rules (4)
Where components are to be enumerated, the number of components is to be stated.
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.
The percentage additions for testing and commissioning are to be applied to the total cost of the items comprising the sub-element. A single combined percentage addition can be applied to cover the costs of both testing and commissioning.
Included Items (8)
Wind turbines, including rooftop wind energy systems.
Photovoltaic devices, including cells, panels, modules, etc., both roof mounted and building mounted.
Solar collectors, including supporting framework (fish plate collectors, evacuated tube collectors, etc.).
Other transformation devices.
Generators in connection with transformation devices.
Ancillary cables and wiring, conduits and cable trunking, and controls required to connect transformation devices to other systems.
Sundry items.
Where works are to be carried out by a subcontractor, the subcontractor’s preliminaries, design fees, risk allowance, overheads and profit, with allowance for these to be made within unit rate applied to element or component.
