  The ability to Take off Quantities from drawings should be number one requirement, otherwise they should be called a cost consultant.

  I believe the impact will vary depending on the sector. For example, AI can be more effectively utilised in bill preparation & commercial management, particularly in the construction of BIM-friendly new builds & large civil projects. However, when it comes to restoration or refurbishment work, which are often less formulaic and rely on specialist trades and techniques, AI may be of less use and thus pose less of a threat. Difficult to say though. It's a powerful tool capable of disrupting a number of jobs. Ultimately it will come down to how protectionist your government is of workers in face of disruptive tech and competition.

  Hi there, thanks for this video. I’m a quantity surveyor with 5 years experience of working in the residential and civil sector so I have been privy to both JCT and NEC Contract Management. I enjoy both aspects to each sector and I’m still relatively young in my profession. However I am unclear in which sector I want to permanently remain in the long term but I am looking to start my APC for my RICS in the next month or two. I’m also about to start my new QS role in telecommunications at the end of next month. My question to you is this: If I were to continue working in the civil sector, would it prevent me from crossing back over to working in other construction sectors?

  Quantity Surveyor means we specifically survey, measure/calculate & manage only costing of 5M Quantitative items (Man power, machinery, material, money & minutes - 5 main cost factors for the price of any goods/product & services in this world), not qualitative items like a sin, numbers of stars or demons or angels, body of God or angel, genie, love, recipe, metabolic or mystic illness, the beauty of artwork etc. which are no unit & tools/yardstick & benchmarks to measure the quantity accurately, except only for observation & assumption.

  The choice between a degree in Quantity Surveying and Commercial Management and a degree in Finance depends on your career goals and interests. Both fields offer distinct career paths and opportunities but within different industries. On the face of it, you are perhaps correct that Finance could potentially open more doors to different types of industries rather than merely just Construction.

  We don't believe its too late at all! According to data online, the average age of a Quantity Surveyor is 55. It'd be great if you could reach out to prospective companies during your MSc too. Please remember, you'd likely be hired as a Graduate QS so your salary may be a little lower, however the progression in this field is great. We can definitely anticipate a solid QS salary within 3 years of qualifying. Best of luck on your journey. Definitely keep us updated as much as you can!

• 
  @MetrounАй бұрын

  In general terms; Instruction Issuance: The client issues instructions for work covered by provisional sums as the project progresses and details become clear. Quotations and Valuation: The contractor provides a quotation for the instructed work. The work is valued based on actual costs, quotations, or pre-agreed rates. Inclusion in Interim Payment Applications: The contractor includes the value of work done under provisional sums in their interim payment applications. Supporting documentation, such as invoices, receipts, and measurement records, is provided. Assessment and Certification: The contract administrator or client’s representative assesses the value of work done under provisional sums. They certify the amount to be included in the interim payment. Adjustment of Provisional Sums: Any variations between provisional sums and actual costs are adjusted in the final account. Unspent provisional sums are deducted from the contract price.

  @Metroun2 ай бұрын

  In the United Kingdom, building regulations are statutory instruments. Statutory law and statutory instruments are both important elements of the legislative framework in places like the UK, but they serve different roles and are created through different processes. Statutory Law: This refers to laws that are enacted by a legislative body, such as Parliament. Statutory laws, also known as Acts of Parliament, are primary legislation. They typically outline broad legal principles and frameworks. For instance, the Building Act 1984 is a statutory law that provides the overarching legal authority for regulating building standards in the UK. Statutory Instruments: These are a type of secondary or delegated legislation. Statutory instruments are used to set detailed regulations under the framework established by a statutory law. They are usually made by an individual or a body under powers given to them by an Act of Parliament. Statutory instruments can be used to fill in more specific details, update regulations, or adapt to new situations without needing to pass a new Act of Parliament. For example, the specific building regulations that enforce parts of the Building Act 1984 are statutory instruments.

  The entry requirements for a Higher National Diploma (HND) can vary significantly between institutions and specific courses. Generally, HND courses are more flexible about entry requirements compared to university degrees. The standard entry requirement usually includes a certain number of GCSEs (often five) at grades A* to C (or 9 to 4 with the new grading system) and sometimes specific A-levels for more specialised courses. I would suggest you speak with the educational provider to see if they can assist however.
