Summary: "This edition begins with an overview of the need for measurement and the differing rules governing measurement at the various stages of the design or project cycle. As in previous editions, the focus remains on the detailed measurement of building elements, but the text has been fully revised in line with the NRM2 rules. A range of new and revised examples illustrating the use of NMR2 rules are a key feature of the book, which concludes with guidance on how to use the data collected during the measurement process to create the tender documents."--Back cover
