Engineering Measurement (BLD60208)

Assignment 2

Assignment Learning Outcome

1. Make use of the appropriate software as a tool to complement their skills and knowledge
in their discipline of study for example in the preparation of Bills of Quantities, Estimating,
Tendering, Progress Payments, and preparation of Final Accounts.

Project Requirement: -

A group of students is required to develop 3D models based on a real construction building, and
prepare measurement, bill of quantities and an analysis report in this assignment.

A. Prepare 3D models by using Autodesk Revit for architecture and structural components listed
below: -

Architectural components & structural components

i. Walls & Wall Finishes

ii. Roof Structure & Roof Coverings
iii. Floor Finishes & Ceiling Finishes
iv. External Finishes & other architectural works
v. Beams
vi. Slabs & Sundries
vii. Column & foundation
viii Windows, Doors and others structure components

Next, students are required to prepare the measurement and Bill of Quantities for the building.

B. Analysis report for the quantities of 3D models.

Students are required to prepare an analysis of the quantities differences between the 3D models
(Revit and CostX) and manual measurement. Compare the quantities differences and identify the
causes of quantities differences with supporting facts and references.
Submission Requirement-

1. You will need to submit a report and it should be presented as a neatly document as per
following: -

a) All font should be in Arial 12 font with 1.5 spacing.

b) Front cover - University logo, name, ID number, Semester Intake, Course, Module &
Lecturer
c) Preparation of 3D models, measurement and Bill of Quantities – 10 Marks
d) Analysis on the quantities differences – 10 Marks

Submission Dateline: -

1. The students are required to submit the assignment 2 by Week 12 (15th November 2022
(Tuesday) before 12noon).
Marking Scheme: -

Marks will be given based on the quality of the overall submission in terms of breadth and depth of the contents and assessment will be
based on the following criteria both as a group and individual performance:-
