ABSTRACT
Class
work alone on measurement of building work is not enough to equipped the
student with the required knowledge and skill required on the measurement of
building work, in accordance with standard procedure laid down by
BESMM3(Building & Engineering Standard Method of Measurement). It is
against this background that the introduction of project work was introduce to
expose the student to practical and theoretical method of taking off of
building work apart from class work so as to increase their skill and knowledge
in addition to class work.
The
chapter one of this project demonstrate the aims, objectives of this research
and the scope and limitation while the chapter two and three represent a
literature review on the procedure of measurement of building work in order to
have a better understanding of taking off, abstracting and billing processes
prepared in chapter four for the proposed four (4) bedroom fully detached
duplex.

This project is also aimed at exposing
us to practical aspect of what were not taught in class and also enable us know
more better about what has already been taught in the class.
