METHODS & UNITS OF MEASUREMENTS OF CIVIL WORKS
The units of measurements (UOM) for civil engineering works are mainly categorised for their nature, shape and size and for making payments to the contractor and also. The principle of units of measurements normally consists the following: a) Single units work like doors, windows, trusses etc., are expressed in numbers. b) Works consists linear measurements(…)
