The units of measurements for components of work can be either one of the following :
Volume : Voluminous and mass components are measured in volume basis (viz. cubic metre)
Area : Thin, shallow and surface works are measured in square unit, or over area. The thickness is specified in the description of the item and the measurement of length and breadth or projection shall be taken to calculate the area (viz. square metre)
Length : Components, which are long and unidirectional in nature, are quantified in linear or running unit (viz. running metre)
Number : Pieces of material in a finished state are quantified in numbers.
The following are the conventional units of dimensions used while specifying/describing materials and works.
