10040 Measure Schedules of Quantities for Advanced Trade Sections for Quantity Surveying

Explanatory notes

Measuring at this level relates to civil engineering and all trade sections additional to those covered by Unit 10039, Measure schedules of quantities for selected trade sections for quantity surveying, and includes the application of computer programmes to the scheduling of quantities.

Outcomes and evidence requirements

Outcome 1

Assemble quantity surveying documentation relevant to advanced trade sections.

Evidence requirements

1.1 Documentation covering all aspects of construction is identified, assembled, and integrated, ready for schedule of quantity preparation.

1.2 Discrepancies in assembled documents are identified, and procedures are implemented to correct them in accordance with industry procedures.

Outcome 2

Measure schedules of quantities for advanced trade sections from project information.

Evidence requirements

2.1 Quantities of items required are checked against documentation in accordance with current industry standards.

2.2 Complete schedules of quantities for advanced trade sections are compiled in accordance with current industry standards.

Outcome 3

Apply measuring techniques to specific sections of civil engineering and special services.

Range areas may include but are not limited to – site earthworks, civil engineering structures, complex drainage schemes, security, building management systems, lifts and escalators; a minimum of four must be selected.

Evidence requirements

3.1 Specific sections of civil engineering and special services are identified and evaluated in accordance with current industry standards.

3.2 Schedules of quantities for specific sections of civil engineering and special services are measured in accordance with current industry standards.

This unit standard is expiring. Assessment against the standard must take place by the last date for assessment set out below.

Please note

Providers must be granted consent to assess against standards (accredited) by NZQA, before they can report credits from assessment against unit standards or deliver courses of study leading to that assessment.

Industry Training Organisations must be granted consent to assess against standards by NZQA before they can register credits from assessment against unit standards.

Providers and Industry Training Organisations, which have been granted consent and which are assessing against unit standards must engage with the moderation system that applies to those standards.

Requirements for consent to assess and an outline of the moderation system that applies to this standard are outlined in the Consent and Moderation Requirements (CMR). The CMR also includes useful information about special requirements for organisations wishing to develop education and training programmes, such as minimum qualifications for tutors and assessors, and special resource requirements.
