SMM In Water & Wastewater Works - a consulting engineers perspective
Introduction Current Practice in Malaysia SMM for Water & Wastewater INTRODUCTION
What is a Bill of Quantities?
A document with detailed information about the type, nature and quantities of the finished work in a construction. Compiled together with Forms of Tender, Specification and Drawings. INTRODUCTION Why Use Bills of Quantities? Avoid unnecessary effort from multiple contractors to prepare the tender Provide standard basis for tender Provide Quality control Assist tender evaluation Provide rates for valuation of variations Provide the basis for payment purpose Provide basis for financial reporting/cash flow INTRODUCTION
Standard Method of Measurement
An agreed set of rules defining what and how an item is to be measured First produced in 1922 by RICS, UK Now…many Standard Method of Measurement (SMM) in use everywhere INTRODUCTION International usage of BQ and SMM Europe UK, Gibraltar and Cyprus follow the British model Germany, France and Spain have their own method. Used only for evaluating bids not for payment Middle East BQ used widely. Measurement based on POM (I) published by RICS INTRODUCTION International usage of BQ and SMM Africa Many African nations were influenced by Europe and tend to adopt the use of BQ and SMM Americas In general, the US and Canada do not use BQ although some form of BQ is occasionally used in civil engineering works Central and South America, due to their Spanish heritage use BQ for their construction works INTRODUCTION International usage of BQ and SMM Asia and Australia Hong Kong, Indonesia, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand and Malaysia all use BQ mainly based on the British model. The BQ is prepared by the quantity surveyor (or by the architect or engineer) generally based on locally produced Standard Method of Measurement. CURRENT PRACTICE IN MALAYSIA
The method of measurement used is dictated
by the relevant contract provisions or sometimes by the nature of the works involved The Standard Method of Measurement of Building Works as published by the Institute of Surveyors, Malaysia is normally used for essentially building works CURRENT PRACTICE IN MALAYSIA
Although the Civil Engineering Standard
Method of Measurement (CESMM) by ICE UK is often used for works of a civil engineering nature but there are many occasions particularly for road works, water supply, wastewater, etc. that utilise their own Standard Method of Measurement prepared by the Engineer. CURRENT PRACTICE IN MALAYSIA
Presently, there are no generally accepted
Standard Method of Measurement for M&E works. Schedule of Prices are often used rather than BQ for M&E works. Where BQ is used the method of measurement is usually spelt out either in the Preamble to the BQ or in the Specification. CURRENT PRACTICE IN MALAYSIA
PAM Contract (2006)
Clause 12 requires the BQ to be prepared in accordance with the SMM for Building Works prepared by Institute of Surveyors, Malaysia CURRENT PRACTICE IN MALAYSIA
JKR 203A (Rev. 10/83)
Clause 26 (a) calls for the BQ to form part of the Contract Clause 26(b) requires the BQ to be prepared in accordance with the SMM for Building Works prepared by Institute of Surveyors, Malaysia CURRENT PRACTICE IN MALAYSIA
JKR 203A (2007)
Clause 26.4 in the new form allows SMM for preparation of BQ to be also based on CESMM by ICE or any Method of Measurement as set out in the BQ in addition to the SMM for Building Works by ISM. SMM IN WATER AND WASTEWATER
Presently, no Standard Method of
Measurement for water and wastewater industry. Engineers indicate methods of measurement in the Preamble to the BQ, the Specification and the Drawings. Different consultants may have different methods of measurements. SMM IN WATER AND WASTEWATER Measurement of piles and piling `Pile driving measured by total length of penetration obtained below formation, river or stream bed level, as appropriate.’ - Some use the excavated pile cap level rather than formation level. `Piles delivered to site and cut piles not incorporated in the Works shall on completion be removed and no payment of any kind shall be due to the Contractor for such piles.’ - Some provide additional items for cutting of piles and removal from site. SMM IN WATER AND WASTEWATER
Measurement for pipe laying
`Joints shall be measured in numbers.’ - Some measure both slip and collar joints separately whereas others measure only collar joints on the basis that slip joints form part of pipework. `The sides of trench excavation shall be deemed to be vertical in all materials and shall apply to any depth of trench….’ - Some allow for measurement of the splay in trench excavation. SMM IN WATER AND WASTEWATER
Measurement for laying of sewer
`The measurement for payment for supply and laying of sewer pipes shall be taken as a linear measure along their centre line…’ - Some measure supply and laying of the sewer line separately. Some even include depth bands on the laying of the sewer main. SMM IN WATER AND WASTEWATER
In view of the differing methods of
measurements adopted, there is a real need to provide a uniform basis for measuring and valuation of the Works within the industry and hence a Standard Method of Measurement. SMM IN WATER AND WASTEWATER
A Standard Method of Measurement for the
Water and Wastewater industry will ensure a standard basis for contractor’s to tender and a uniform basis for valuation and payment to the contractor. Thank You
