Construction Measurements For Substructure Made Easy
Construction Measurement Course to improve quantity surveying skills in construction estimation
What you'll learn
How to measure for removal of trees, site clearance, site preparation (excavation of top soil)
How to measure for the mean girth of a building (regular and irregular complex shaped plan)
How to measure for foundation trench excavation
How to measure for the earth work support, leveling and compaction, anti termite treatment, concrete in foundation and blockwork in foundation
How to measure for imported filling (Laterite and Hardcore filling), BRC Mesh, Damp Proof Membrane (DPM), Oversite concrete and Formwork
Requirements
Some knowledge of how to read building construction drawings (Site plan, Floor plans, Sections etc)
Description
This course offers a comprehensive guide to construction measurements for substructure of a simple bungalow, simplifying key processes involved in laying the foundation for any building project. It covers essential steps, from site clearance to the final foundation works, focusing on accuracy and efficiency.
You’ll learn how to measure and quantify tasks such as:Removal of Trees & Site Clearance: Techniques for clearing vegetation and debris to prepare the site.Site Preparation & Foundation Trench Excavation: Best practices for trenching and excavating for the foundation.Earthwork Support & Leveling: Methods to manage earthworks, ensuring proper leveling and compaction.
Anti-Termite Treatment & Imported Filling: Procedures for treating the site to prevent termite infestation and accurately measuring imported materials like hardcore and laterite.Damp Proof Membrane & BRC Mesh: How to install and measure damp proof membranes and steel reinforcement (BRC mesh).Concrete & Blockwork in Foundation: Understanding the measurements for foundation concrete and blockwork.Oversite Concrete: Techniques for measuring oversite concrete preparation.
This course is ideal for Quantity Surveying students, construction professionals, and anyone seeking to understand the detailed measurements and processes involved in substructure work. By the end, you'll be able to measure and calculate these critical tasks with confidence, ensuring precision and cost-effectiveness on any construction site.
Who is this course for:
This course is ideal for:Quantity Surveying Students: Those looking to deepen their understanding of substructure measurements and learn the practical skills needed for accurate cost estimation in construction projects.Construction Professionals: Engineers, project managers, and site supervisors who want to improve their knowledge of site preparation, excavation, and foundation work, ensuring efficiency in the field.
Aspiring Builders and Contractors: Individuals involved in the construction industry who wish to gain a solid foundation in measuring substructure works for residential, commercial, and industrial projects.
Anyone Interested in Construction: Whether you’re just starting out or seeking to expand your knowledge, this course provides essential insights into the substructure phase of construction, which is crucial for all building projects.By the end of the course, you'll have the practical knowledge to accurately measure and manage substructure activities, improving your skills in construction planning, execution, and budgeting.
