The Committee has therefore produced the following Guidance Notes to assist users of CESMM3' in the compilation of bills and measurement of construction work. Paragraph 5.6 - Dayworks There has been considerable misunderstanding over the effects of a percentage addition or reduction as applied by CESMM to the Schedules of Dayworks carried out incidental to Contract Work issued by the Federation of Civil Engineering Contractors. The example below will assist in demonstrating the result of a 10% addition and a 30% reduction tothe Schedule:- Addition Deduction Hourly Rate £5.00 £5.00 ‘Schedule of Dayworks Rate ~ add 148%. £7.49. £7.40 Total before adjustment E1240 1240 Adjustment addition of 10% £1.24 : eduction of 30% : (3.2) Total Rate for Daywork £13.68 £8.68 Class G - Concrete Ancillaries G1-4,*,* - Formwork. The measurement of formwork for concrete components of constant cross-section is referred to in the Note at the bottom of Page 43 for CESMM3' or Page 41 for CESMM2'. In a situation where there is @ requirement for inserts, intrusions etc. in the linear measure, it should be dealt with by applying the principles of rule M6.
