While architects decide what to build, the quantity surveyor works out how to build it: who will do it, when, and for how much. So you need to understand how a building is built, from the first brick up.A Higher National Diploma (HND) in construction and quantity surveying will get ...
Anyway, the different types of surveyors got me thinking about which roles (in addition to quantity surveyors) could be caught under the heading “surveying work” in section 104(2) of the Construction Act 1996 or, for that matter, any other part of section 104. Establishing whether a role...
What is IMU and how does it relate to surveying and construction? IMU stands for Inertial Measurement Unit. IMU sensors provide navigational data and can be found in smartphones, vehicles, UAVs and more. In the survey and construction context, combining IMU withGNSSenables new features for smart...
Quantity takeoffs reflect a pivotal part of the decision-making process in construction. They make up one of the essential parts of understanding a project’s scope and requirements. Regardless of a project’s size, it is necessary to have a quantity takeoff. The type of data collected for q...
