Abstract

Brickwork and blockwork are measured in m2 stating the actual thickness, for example 215 mm, the plane where other than vertical, such as battering or tapering, and whether it has facework (finished fair) on one or both sides (SMM F10.1.1–3.1–4). It must include full particulars of the bricks or blocks, type of bond, composition and mix of mortar and type of pointing (SMM F10.S1–4).
