🎓 Online Course – Civil Engineering
🧱 Master Quantity Estimation
From Drawings to Final Bill
Stop guessing. Start mastering accurate quantity takeoff, BOQ, and billing documentation.
You know the theory – now learn the practical workflow used by top quantity surveyors.
📐 What You’ll Learn – Course Overview
This is a step‑by‑step system that takes you from a blank drawing sheet to a fully priced Bill of Quantities (BOQ). Each module builds on real project examples and CPWD / IS 1200 guidelines.
By the end, you will:
- Read any civil drawing with confidence
- Compute earthwork, concrete, formwork, reinforcement, brickwork, finishes
- Calculate exact material consumption (cement, sand, aggregate, steel, bricks)
- Prepare BOQ, Measurement Book, RA bills, and Bar Bending Schedule
