The object of the Author has been to place in the hands of students and practical men — of masters and workmen — architects, builders, and their employers, no less than in those of " 'pren- tices in the craft," young men learning their profession or calling, an easier method for taking Quantities and Measurements of different work in the Building Trade, than that usually gleaned from books, and one that has reference to the practice now generally adopted by Surveyors. The Rules for Abstracting, and the Hints for preparing a Bill of Quantities, together with the carefully prepared lists of Prices for "Work in all Branches of the Building Trade, now added, will enable every workman to prepare his own bill, and save him both trouble and expense. The prices can be implicitly relied upon. 27, New Street, Brompton : July, 1874. 6 o I 8 CONTENTS.

It is strongly recommended to adopt, without deviation, one course. In taking the dimensions of external work, always commence in the front, at the left hand of the building, working round to the right. In excavations, brickwork, &c, take the front and back wall from out to out the end, and other walls in the clear. In internal dimensions, in every trade, take floor by floor, beginning at the left hand side and working round. For all figures in the dimension book adopt the same plan, and if it happens that months after the measurement is referred to, no difficulty will arise in easily finding any given dimension. Excavation (per foot cube). — Take the dimen- sion of front, allowing 6 inches at each end to work in, beyond the external quoin of the brick- work; then measure the back front to ascertain A3 10 THE WOKKMA^'S GUIDE TO if the building is built at right angles ; take ends with same allowances. Providing the building is at right angles, the dimensions would be iOu-0 6 -ft. deep. 100-0 after cubing it, divide the quantity by 27, the cumber of cubic feet in a yard, and the excavatior is given. If wheeled above 15 yards, describe how much, the cost varying as the distance increases ; also if excavated deeper than 6 feet. If carted away, say to what distance. All excavations for cess- pools and drains are measured in the same way, with a small allowance to work in; describe depth, distance wheeled, carted, &c. Trenches (cubic yard). — Digging trenches for foundations should be separate from excavating for the whole site, the former being usually filled in, levelled and rammed at bottom and sides. Suppose the building to be at right angles, and widths the same, the four walls for digging may be collected together, forming a distinct dimension, 10 °-° the front and back from outside 0 to outside, and ends in clear. If _ s the building is not at right angles, or of different widths, each length must be taken separately, beginning at front and 10 deep. QUANTITIES AND MEASUEEMEN working round. Describe which is outside to out- side, and which is clear ; after having taken out- side, proceed to digging piers, internal walls, &c. Concrete (cubic yard.) — Measured like exca- vation to trenches, but the nett quantity; describe the proportion of stuff and the height thrown from ; take all depths, and in cases of large areas filled in, take a super, dimension of all upper surfaces levelled. 12 THE WORKMAN'S GUIDE TO BRICKWORK. In London and its vicinity brickwork is re- duced to the rod of 272 feet super., of a standard thickness of 1^ brick. This operation is per- formed as follows : — 400 feet in 2 bricks is taken as 800 feet in 1 brick ; 200 feet in 2£ bricks as 200 feet in 1 brick, and 200 feet in 1£ brick ; 200 feet in 1* brick as 250 feet in 1 brick ; 250 feet in If brick as 250 feet in 1 brick and 125 in 1-| brick; 200 feet in J brick as 50 feet in 1 brick ; 200 feet in § brick as 100 feet in 1 J brick. When the quantity of 1 brick thick is added ap, multiply by 2 (the number of \ bricks in 1 brick), and divide by 3 (number of J bricks in \\ brick), then add the same to the column of \\ bricks, dividing the whole by 272 to bring it into rods. Solids, as piers, &c, to be cubed. To reduce them to standard thickness of \\ brick, multiply the quantity by 8 (number of 1 \ in a foot), and divide by 9; then divide by 272, thus bringing to rods. Suppose a pier to be 30 feet high and 4 feet square — 30 x 4 x 4 = 480. 3840-1-9 = 426. 480 x 8 = 3840. 272 ft -)426(l rod 54. QUANTITIES AND MEASUREMENT^^ 13 < Footings are taken as they occur, by taking' the thickness on the average. ! - _ ~ 1 Ground average 2' 3" wide, then J ^ I *' I | J say 10 feet long by 3 feet — , i i ■ 10' x 3'x2' 3"=67' 6" digging and carting. Brickwork. — Commence with the footings ; thus, if the erection is at right angles : — 100-0 Should this not be the case, each wall must be taken separately— the front and back walls from outside to outside, the flank walls in the clear. If the thickness of the footings can be averaged, one dimension will do ; if not, each course should be taken by itself. Then take the walls im- mediately above the footings to the top of the joists of the ground story, describing the number of bricks thick, and so on, floor by floor, to the roof. Should the walls of upper floors be of the same thickness, it is still suggested to take them floor by floor, clearing off all additions, as breasts, trimmers, &c, with the deductions to each. Chimney Breasts and Trimmers— -For chimney breasts take width by height on each floor ; state thickness; allow for openings as they occur; measure length of trimmers by girth. Cornices.— Take the length of all projections 14 THE WORKMAN'S GUIDE TO for cornices, fascias, strings, &c, by their several widths ; say thickness of brick. Cement. — If any brickwork is carried up in cement, take quantity and add to general brick- work ; but make a separate item in bill. Circular Work. — Measure as directed for other work, but take the girths instead of width; heights, &c, as before. Ovens and Coppers. — Measure solid ; allow for ash-holes. Facings (per foot super.) — Take the width of the front wall, and returns by height ; allow cor- nice and strings, if any; subtract all openings, adding reveals ; also front of all gauged arches, and state nature of facing. Pointing (per foot super.) — Measured as facing, or by the 100 feet. Brick-nogging (per yard super.) — Take length by height ; allow apertures (doors only) ; divide by 9 for yards; say how bricks are laid. All quarters and other wood given in. Cuttings (per foot super.) — Measure the length by width for wide splays ; if rubbed bricks, spe- cify. This part of the work requires particular attention. Splays (per foot run). — All splays are measured by lineal measure ; if bricks are circular, and rubbed, &c, mention same. QUANTITIES AND MEASUREMENTS. 15 Gauged Arches. — Take lowest line between reveals ; add skewback, by front of gauged work, thus : — 6 , ZZ7\ < 3 e— > sr\ Arched Work. — Where common vaults occur, take the quantity on dotted line. Arches described as 14" should be taken as 12" on face. Where 9" reveals occur to large openings, the arches should be measured solid and separately regarded. Occasions seldom occur to specify work in seconds, as invariably the work is exe- cuted in malms. Measure herring-bone arches extra face only ; for example, arches in cement, if cut. Mention separately all frames bedded and pointed; all flues cored; and ends of any bars to grates which have been restored. Circular Gauged Arches are measured as fol- lows — for example : Semicircular arch & to be 3' 6" between reveals. Take half i circumference by front of arch, then half circumference at 3' 6" diameter by depth of reveal for soffit ; subtract outer face of arch from facing. 16 THE WORKMAN'S GUIDE TO Chimney Caps. — Specify separately; how finished ; and give sketch in dimension book. Creasing (Plaintile) is measured by lineal measure ; state if single course or otherwise ; mention thickness of wall, and how the work is rendered. Drains are measured by foot run. Take all dimensions, and how work is rendered. Cesspools measured as common brickwork. Drains not measured through the traps. Specify ends of all pipes made good ; collect number of stones and gratings. Paving is measured by the superficial yard. Multiply length by width ; if plan is irregular, take the average. Kun cutting and waste where it requires it; say how laid and how rendered; also state the description of bricks used. Deductions. — It is suggested to let the width of all openings appear first, and then the height. If this rule is adopted as the universal one, there will be but little trouble in reference. Chimney bars average 2£" x J" and 2 ft. 3 in. longer than openings. Abstract window openings in two distinct di- mensions : 1. External, between reveals of win- dows ; 2. Internal, ditto. Deduct from all brick- work any material more than 8" high, allowing iy for bedding in mortar. QUANTITIES AND MBASUREMENTlS^^ Pantiling (per square 100 feet super. y^i^eY^ extreme length of eaves, by depth of same. If a hipped roof with valleys, the return b will make good the front a. If the edifice is at right angles, double the dimension for front and back; take the centre of the two hips marked c, by 1' 3" in width, and the cutting to the four hips also by 1' 3" in width, abstracting for shafts, &c. Specify generally how the work is performed ; take the dimen- sion of the circular tiling to ridges and hips ; enumerate T-nails and hooks ; if any filleting, measure lineally. In the case of plain tile eaves, collect lengths, inclusive of hip ends, by their depth ; they would, collected, be 300 feet. Plaintiling\% calculated by the square of 100 feet. Measure in like manner as pantiling, but add the whole round of 300 feet by a width of 4J for eaves. Barge or other course, by foot run. Generally. — To every portion of the work state the quality of material used. 18 THE WORKMAN'S GUIDE TO SLATER. All slates are measured on the same principle, i.e. per square of 100 feet super. Take the description given for measurement of tiling — the hip or valley made good by the return. Take the 300 feet by a depth being the average of the five last courses ; calculate the cutting of hips or valleys by 1' 3" in width (as in tiling). Give description of nails used. For all hips and valleys allow 1' 3" wide by their length. If the building is of irregular shape, multiply length of walls by 7" for cutting " countess" and "ladies," 10" for "duchess," 12" for "queens." Take all edges of curbs as eaves. To all gable walls, stacks, or any work against which slates are fitted, allow a dimension by 7" for cutting, excepting always large skylights, which will do away with cutting Cisterns (per foot super.) — Take the length of the bottom by the width, and the dimensions of sides by height. Describe the workmanship. Slate cisterns are usually enumerated, and the quantity of water they hold is mentioned, or an inside super, dimension is taken ; and the bolts and all fastenings are generally specified, as well as the thickness and quality of the slate. Specify separately where sawn edges occur. QUANTITIES AND MEASUREMENTS. 19 CARPENTER. Describe the quality and colour of timber and deals. Generally.— k\\ timber work is measured by the foot cube ; allow for all framings, dovetailings, &c, &c. ; take the extreme length from out to out by scantling. Keep separate all wall-plates, lintels, and wood bricks, also framed timbers and any trussed work, as they are of different value. Calculate the cuttings and waste to hips, and any irregular lines, by lineal measure. Measure floor by floor ; booking all items of one before another is commenced. The wall-plates, wood bricks, lintels, &c, may be added up at the side of the general mass of collections, forming one dimension for each scant- ling. As before suggested, commence measuring at one given point throughout each floor, first taking such as wall-plates, bond wood bricks ; secondly, all centering, presently described ; then the joists and all partitions, with their mems. of additions and deductions ; lastly, take the roof. Pole-plates to roof are always taken as framed timbers. Note all the smith's and founder's work as the measuring is proceeded with. 20 THE WORKMAN'S GUIDE TO Wall-plates and Wood Bricks, $c. (per cubic foot). — Add up lengths by the scantling ; parti- cularise all framing, &c. Lintels, fyc. — Measure lengths, to which add what they bear on the walls, by the scantling. Floor Joists (per foot cube) 3 as framed timbers. — Measure length of joist, and what they bear on the wall, by scantling ; deduct chimney breasts, and openings for slabs, but add trimmers, and any centering that occurs. Springing pieces are mea- sured as presently described (deduct well-hole to staircase, and add trimmers). Strutting is taken by foot run ; mention if her- ring-bone. Partitions are measured as framed timbers. — Take the lengths of the head and sill, including part in wall, by scantling ; the height of the door and principal posts, inclusive of tenoning, by scantling ; braces and quarters in a similar way ; the length of the door heads, inclusive of framing in posts and the quarters, by their scantling. The quarters generally are merely nailed in. Roof. — Measure the various lengths of the dif- ferent portions of roof: ridge hips and valley pieces by their depths, which will give a super, dimen- sion ; describe the thickness as framed ; take the entire lengths by foot run, for cutting and waste. Take the extreme length of the rafters from end QUANTITIES AND MEASUREMENTS. 21 to end, by the scantling ; specify them along the front as all long rafters, leaving the short ones at the hip end to make good. If the building is square, double the number of rafters for the back, and add one for the centre of each hip end. Pole-plates, collar- beams, purlins, angle or dragging ties, struts, ceiling joists, are always taken the full length, including every dovetail and all framing, by their several scantlings. Trussed work being generally worth 20 per cent, more, should be kept separate. The King and Queen Posts, Principal Rafters, &c, ought to be calculated by their mean lengths and particular scantlings. All rolls by the foot run, stating sizes. Subtract one shoulder in a roof, with a king post. Wrought and Framed Partitions (per foot cube). — All prepared timbers in scantlings above 4x2 to be measured by the foot cube; the entire lengths, including framing, by the scantling. It timbers run large, take them as rough and framed, and measure the prepared face by the foot super. ; rebating, beading, &c, by foot run ; but give the sizes. Circular Timbers (per foot run). — Measure as 22 THE WORKMAN'S GUIDE TO they occur, adding scarfings, laps, &c. In the price, the cutting should be allowed. Describe what sweep, whether quick, elliptic, &c. &c. Gutters (per foot super.) — Take length by width ; state thickness, the size of bearers, and how far apart; also state where any framing occurs. Calculate length, and multiply by width ; describe thickness ; measure drips, rolls for leads, &c, by the foot run. Specify cesspools to gutters, giving all dimensions. Slate Battening (per square).— Measure batten- ing by depth ; specify width and thickness. Tako the whole dimension of building, including hip ends for tilting fillets, and calculate by the foot run ; state the width, if necessary. Wall Battening (per square).— Collect the di- mension of walls; multiply by the height; say what thickness and width, and how far separate, allowing for any openings. Ceiling Battening (per square) is measured as wall battening. Describe, if not level face, the thickness, &c. Angle Staves (per foot run). — Take height down to the skirting line; state if square, staff-beaded, or otherwise. Sound Boarding (per square). — Measure length by width ; say what thickness, and how filleted, inclusive of timbers. If the plan is irregular, take the average ; state how edges are left, if worked for current, and give all sizes, so that, if occasion require it, the refer- ence will be easy. Bracketing (per foot super.) — Add up lengths of bracketing to cornices, forming the whole di- mension of the room, by the girth ; state thick- ness. Enumerate angular and other brackets. Ribbed Centering (per foot super.) — All the cen- tering to wide reveals should be taken by the foot super. Centering to Vaults (per square). — Take the length by the girth ; state how many ribs, and the thickness of the boards they are covered with, if shifted. Allow for removing centres and re- fixing. Centering to Chimney Trimmers (per foot super.) — Measure the length by the girth. All turning pieces to be calculated by the foot run. Centering to Rough Arches (per foot run). — Take the length between reveals, adding 1 \ inch. Centering to Gauged Arches. — In like manner, including struts ; name the width of reveal ; if a semi-head, calculate as before directed, but by the foot run. 24 THE WOKKMAN'S GUIDE TO JOINER. Generally. — State the quality and colour of the deals and battens. Keep to one methodical way in taking the measurements throughout. Take floors first; the doors, jamb linings, and archi- traves, grounds, &c. ; then the skirtings; then, fronts to cupboards, and general framing ; finish with angle beads, soffits, and margins. Floors (per square).— Measure all lengths by their widths, inclusive of skirtings on each side ; if plan is not at right angles, then take the aver- age. Cutting and waste are measured by foot run, which should be calculated on all and every line where such cutting, &c, occurs. Deduct chim- ney breasts, and all slabs taking super, dimen- sion. Take full lengths of glued and mitred border to slabs, and also flooring in recesses ; mentioning the thickness, and if wrought and laid folding. Number all heading joints, and say if splayed, or ploughed and tongued. Should the boards be gauged to any width, say so, and specify if batten floors. Measure room nett, but no deduction to be made for slab. For splay, or any irregular plan, run the dimension, and allow for waste. Enumerate scribing, notching, &c. QUANTITIES AND MEASUREMENTS. 25 In the case of floors joining stone, allow foi cross joint. Plinths are measured per foot super., including mitres, tonguings, housings, &c, by the width. State the thickness ; also say if double or single rebated, backed, &c. Take the lowest moulding by the foot super. ; but if 5'' girth, or under, by the foot run. Enumerate all mitres and housings to all mouldings to each plinth ; also state if straight, circular, bent, or glued up in thickness. All Thicknesses (per foot super.) — Multiply all dimensions on the face, the height by width, stating the several thicknesses from J" up to 4"; if under 3'' wide, then measure them by the foot run. State if rough edges, shot, wrought one or both sides, ploughed and tongued, or otherwise ; ditto and beaded, rebated ; ditto and beaded, dovetailed ; mortice clamped, keyed, glued, blocked, backed, tongued, moulded, beaded, staff beaded, &c.
