Quantity Survey Interview Questions

What is quantity surveying, and why is it important in civil projects?

Quantity surveying involves estimating, monitoring, and controlling construction costs. It ensures budget control, accurate billing, contract management, and financial transparency in civil projects.

How do you calculate the quantity of concrete for a slab/beam/column?

Concrete Quantity = Length × Breadth × Height (Wet Volume). Multiply by 1.54 to get Dry Volume for material estimation.

What is the difference between dry and wet volume of concrete?

Wet volume is the actual required concrete. Dry volume includes allowances for voids and is about 1.54 times the wet volume.

What is IS 1200, and how is it applied in quantity estimation?

IS 1200 is a set of Indian Standard codes that define the method of measurement for civil works like concrete, plaster, brickwork, etc., ensuring uniform estimation.

How do you calculate earthwork excavation quantities?

For rectangular pits: Volume = L × B × D. For irregular shapes: Volume = (A1 + A2)/2 × Length, using the average end area method.

What is a bar bending schedule (BBS), and how do you prepare it?

BBS is a table showing type, size, shape, length, and quantity of reinforcement bars. It is prepared using structural drawings as per IS 2502.

What are the key elements of a rate analysis?

Material cost, labor cost, equipment cost, overheads, and contractor’s profit are key components of rate analysis.

How do you calculate brickwork quantity?

Brickwork Volume = L × T × H. Number of bricks = Volume / Volume of one brick (with mortar). Deductions made for openings.

What is the difference between BOQ and estimation sheet?

BOQ lists item-wise quantities for tendering. Estimation sheet includes detailed cost calculations for budgeting.

What is the significance of lead and lift in rate analysis?

Lead is horizontal distance and lift is vertical height for material transport. Both affect cost in rate analysis.

How do you determine the wastage percentage for construction materials?

Based on IS codes and site practice: Cement – 2%, Steel – 3–5%, Bricks – 2–3%, Concrete – 2–3%.

What are prime cost and provisional sum?

Prime cost is an allowance for unfinalized items. Provisional sum is a lump sum for undefined work likely needed later.

What is the standard deduction for plastering in openings?

No deduction for openings ≤ 0.5 m². Full area deducted for 0.5–3 m² (except sides). Full deduction for >3 m² including all sides.

What are the different types of estimates used in civil engineering?

Preliminary, detailed, revised, supplementary, plinth area, and cube rate estimates are commonly used.

What is tendering? What are the stages in the tendering process?

Tendering is inviting bids for work. Stages: Tender notice, bid submission, bid opening, evaluation, and contract award.
