Quantities shown here are for reference only. Every rate should be supported by market data or a rate analysis, and every quantity by a takeoff from approved drawings.

A good BOQ does three things

  • Gives every bidder the same items, units and quantities to price
  • Becomes the baseline for re-measurement and running bills
  • Makes variations and extra items easy to price against known rates

Struc-Arch prepares BOQs and cost estimates for private and public projects, and supports quantity surveying and re-measurement through the life of the project.
