What’s difference between client side and commercial QS,I’ve been told that client side there’s greater wage potential.

Did you pass your APC?

Im am upcoming quantity surveyor

Hi my name risi my dream surveying 😢but one halp you please 🥺

Can someone study project management and become a QS?

Plumber here

A Quantity Surveyor, at professional level is an Accountant of a Construction project. So, it implies that a Quantity Surveyor should be able to give the maximum possible value for the money spend by their clients. Unfortunately, this is not achieved in the construction industry. The loss owing to frauds and mismanagement is estimated to be 10-30% of the project costs. Happening in all countries. It is an affront to the profession. Therefore, it is a requirement that all Quantity Surveyors and their unions should concentrate on Technical Auditing. Auditing is considered to be the “Check &Balance Mechanism “for Government expenditure. Carried out by Financial Accountants only and they maintain a firm grip and lot of financial vested interests. Govt. funded constructions were simple structures when auditing started a century ago and it was easy to audit. Govt. funded construction now, is huge, complex, done in several phases with complicated Contractual arrangements. Auditing such constructions is difficult even for highly experienced construction professionals. The loss owing to frauds and mismanagement in these audited (Financial) Govt. constructions is a world record. It was reported as US $ 4 Trillion per year by Transparency Internationals. Global Organistion of Parliamentarians Against Corruption (GOPAC) submitted a proposal in 2015 to have an additional Technical Audit with a functioning Technical Auditing mechanism to salvage this avoidable loss in public funds. This is a good opportunity for Quantity Surveyors to audit around US $ 12 Trillion Govt. funded constructions per year. There a is scope for other constructions as well as the loss is estimated to be 10 -30% of the project costs. There is a big opportunity (in excess of millions per year) for Quantity Surveyors to work as Technical Auditors.

Good Job... please keep it up, this is very helpful to us

To me liquid paint stripper is ok to remove smaller bits. But heat gun you can't go wrong in the long term

Not only human health collapse every thing the lifes will Dissapear

Please please please cut down on loud music, specifically the one that's distracting. It becomes much more engaging to watch with a soothing and calming background music such as nice and subtle instrumental melody. So unless u are going to jump off a cliff or go roller skating down on a busy expressway, subtle sounding instrumental music is the best BG music for any video.😊

How can I become Quantity Surveyor?

2nd year QS uni student here! Any advice in terms of what I can do and/or should be doing until I graduate to better my chances of securing a graduate role/scheme? I currently have a PT job however, it has no relevance to the job I am studying for. I have tried and failed to get a PT QS or related job even if unpaid. Also, any tips for me in relation to studying? Did you change anything whilst studying that drastically improved your time at uni and grades? Are there any resources particular helpful for QS students? Currently, doing very well but, what's the harm in asking ;)

wow nice videos

also have huge quantity of milk😂

Thanks! V helpful.

Can a structural engineer can apply for RICS?? With previous experience in QS.

Hi, came across you from the recent Mind event...I just wanted to say you are amazing!

This was so helpful 😊

Airplanes are OK. Helicopters on the other hand annoy the Hell out of me. Especially the Hospital near me with that damn Helicopter going back and forth.

You can also do both and save more money on time! There are good paint strippers out there with just one coat you can remove more than 6 layers of paint

Thanks for your effort, Please can you send me a sample of spreadsheet ? :) please I'm learning to being a quantity surveyor ?

Word of warning from an APC assessor… get this competency wrong and your heading for a referral.

I love you video, thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge as a Qs. I am looking you have a chat with you

This video was very helpful for my construction class, thank you.

That's werid I was feeling like this song

I hate that song…

I didn't even think of a heat gun! I have one already too🙏

Which is easy mathod to apply a job offer

❤Superb,

helpful video for someone currently studying quantity surveying, and looking to drop down to part time study to gain work experience at the same time. There's always some type of trade-off it seems, either with level of achievement or mental health

As a military brat, I definitely had issues with feeling like I dont' belong anywhere, wanting true friendship but not finding it, and got addicted to the internet that when I fought with my sibling over it I tried to act all dramatic and suicidal.

Trail blazing! Now I know. Thank you😅

Thanks for charing!

Qs jobs is demand in your country?

So angry at being put through this. Ruined my life!

You are cute and smart , well done

Myself and my partner have been able to renting for the last 5 years, we moved to a nice area while she was between 4-6 then we got an opportunity to live near family for the last two years. Now we finally saved up enough to buy a house but we could only afford an hour and 20 minutes away. Like that it will be my daughter's third time. She is 7. I am anxious putting her through this again but i promised this would be the last time.

❤❤

Finally someone talking about this

Love the graphics in this. How you zoom and move to the next circle and then zoom back in. It helps to see how the dots are connected.

fascinating, Jessa!

I would like to see this video in English.

Moved a lot between countries,cities, untill 18...no army brat, no big job, just survival. DR,chile,montreal,usa

Really useful, concise and informative! - Thanks and good luck!

Paint stripper used to be much more effective than it is now. The formulas have changed to comply with modern health and safety standards. 20 years ago you could get the job done in 1 coat, and the paint would blister right in front of your eyes!

A good sand with some 100 grit paper would have been fine, you dont need to remove the existing paint if it is stuck well.
