Description
Book SynopsisCurrent practice on most contracts dictates that the engineer deals with engineering matters and the quantity surveyor covers the commercial aspects. As a result, engineers have become increasingly uneasy at setting rates, evaluating claims and of pricing work generally. This book provides engineers with a sound all round ability and commercial adeptness in price estimating.
Author Trevor Holroyd draws on his experience of consulting and professional training in his latest book which will appeal to civil and structural engineers, surveyors, contractors, consulting practices and more.
