Measurement & Deliverable Parameters
How are Berkshire commercial packages measured and delivered?
| Estimating Parameter | Technical Specification | Standard / Audit Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Measurement Section & Units | NRM2 Commercial Tender Packages measured in m2, m, nr, m3, item | Scaled GA plans at 1:50 / 1:100 or structural details in mm |
| Local Statutory Framework | Building Regulations (Approved Documents Parts A–S) & Building Safety Act (BSA) Gateways 1–3 | England statutory & local tender compliance notes |
| Wastage & Prelim Separation | Net quantities isolated with 5%–10% typical trade waste allowances | Berkshire County logistics and phased delivery allowances |

Commercial Estimating FAQs for Berkshire
What does a Berkshire commercial estimate include?
Every workbook provides net measured quantities in m2, m, nr, m3, item, colour-coded PDF drawing mark-ups, separated material vs labour lines, and clarifications covering Berkshire site requirements.
Can you split commercial estimates by RIBA stage or JCT subcontractor trade package?
Yes. Workbooks can be organised by NRM2 trade package (for issuing subcontractor enquiries) and rolled up to an executive tender summary.
Do you measure acoustic, fire-rated, and specialist commercial partition build-ups separately?
Yes. Every wall type (single/twin stud, dB rating, 30/60/90-minute fire rating, deflection heads) is tracked as its own line item.
