| Scope item | Measurement basis | Review before pricing |
|---|---|---|
| Slabs and thickened edges | Area and thickness converted to volume | Separate slab fields, edge beams and depressions to avoid overlapping volumes. |
| Reinforcing and embeds | Bar size, spacing, length and detail counts | Keep laps, dowels, chairs and cast-in items identifiable; do not apply a blanket steel weight to every slab. |
| Placement package | Pour sequence, access and specified finish | Identify pumping, testing, curing and temporary protection separately from concrete supply. |
