Description

this course is developed only for civil engineering students or worker in different sites as quantity surveyors or cost estimators, this course include all detail calculations that are needed to be covered as per site need.

Quantity surveyors estimate and control costs for large construction projects. They make sure that structures meet legal and quality standards. Quantity surveyors are involved at every stage of a project. Whether they’re working on residential, commercial or industrial projects, clients rely on them to ensure that the final outcome is value for money. There are several routes to becoming a quantity surveyor. You can gain the qualifications you need by doing a university course or an apprenticeship. If you already have relevant experience you may be able to apply directly to an employer or train on the job.

You could complete an undergraduate degree in quantity surveying or another relevant subject, such as:

Construction
Structural engineering
Civil engineering
Maths
Geography
Economics
Urban or land studies.

As a quantity surveyor you will be responsible for helping to estimate costs, quantities, and project timelines and providing this information to clients. You will be liasing with a variety of other teams and helping to keep a project on track.
