C-3 Reinforcement:

The measurement will be on the basis of calculated weight of reinforcement only (i.e. without considering
the weight of tying wires) actually consumed in the finished work as per drawing and design or as per
direction of the Engineer-in-Charge. If the length of any rod be more than that shown in the drawing but
has been allowed to be used, the length will be taken as the length shown in the drawing. Hooks and laps
as per standard practice will be measured and paid for.

C-4 Plaster, Lime punning, Plaster of Paris rendering:

For measurements of plaster (exterior or interior) deduction is to be made for door, window or opening of
similar dimension and allowance is to be made for jambs, sills and soffits. Payment will be made on the
basis of surface measurement of wall deducting one-third the measurement of such opening and without
any separate measurement of jambs, sills and soffits. In case of large openings, exceeding three sq.m.
however, as in the case of verandahs with columns, payment will be on actual measurements.

C-5 White Washing and Colour Washing:

(i) Payment will be made on the basis of surface measurement without any deduction for door,
window or opening or similar dimension and without any separate measurement for jambs. sills
and soffits of such openings.

measurements shall be the same as in plaster.

roofing etc. shall be on the following basis. In all such cases the “Area” shall be measured flat
(and not girthed). For door and windows, no separate payment shall be made for the frames
(chowkats), the “Area” in such cases represents the area of the wall opening covered by the
frames (including exposed surface of the frames). For grills, gratings etc. the area represents the
area of the opening covered by outer frames.

(b) The area measured as above shall be multiplied by the factor given below and the works of
painting shall be paid on the quantities thus arrived at:
