Methods of Measurement of Works of Civil Engineering (Excluding River Valley Projects) SectionalCommittee, CEO 44
FOREWORD
This Indian Standard ( Fifth Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draftfinalized by the Methods of Measurement of Works of Civil Engineering (Excluding River ValleyProjects) Sectional Committee had been approved by the Civil Engineering Division Council.
Measurement occupies a very important place in planning and execution of any civil engineering workfrom the time of first estimates to final completion and settlement of payments of the project. Themethods followed for measurement are not uniform and considerable differences exist between practicesfollowed by different construction agencies and also between various Central and State Governmentdepartments. While it is recognized that each system of measurement has to be specifically related tothe administrative and financial organizations within the department responsible for work, a unificationof the various-systems at technical level has been accepted as very desirable. specially as it permits awider circle of operation for civil engineering contractors and eliminates ambiguities and misunder-standings arising out of the inadequate understanding of various systems followed.
Among various civil engineering items, measurement of building had been first to be taken up forstandardization and this standard, having provisions relating to all building works, was first publishedin 1958 and then revised in 1964. In its second revision, the standard was issued in different partscorresponding to different trades in building and civil engineering works. This part covering methods ofmeasurement of white-washing, colour washing, distempering and painting applicable to building as wellas civil engineering works was, therefore, issued as a second revision in 1970. The third revision of thestandard was published in 1976 and the fourth revision in 1987.
This fifth revision has been brought out to incorporate the changes found necessary in light of theusage of this standard and the suggestions made by various bodies implementing it. The principalmodifications made are in respect of conversion of areas of uneven surfaces into equivalent plainareas, wherein provision for sponge finished plaster has also been included.
The composition of the technical committee responsible for preparation of this standard is given atAnnex A.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the finalvalue, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a measurement, shall be rounded off in accord-ance with IS 2 : 1960 'Rules for rounding off numerical values ( revised y. The number of significantplaces retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in thisstandard.
