Preamble

Preambles are clauses usually inserted at thehead of each work section bills, and principally

contained descriptions of material and

workmanships as found in specifications,

together with another relevant information of

Inserting the preamble in the B.O.Q, the lenth of

the work descriptions are reduced and thespecifications is not necessary if they provide the

information



Functions of Preambles

Specify quality of materials,

Specify the standard of the workmanship

required,Assist in pricing measured work,

Repetition of same information item by item

will be avoided and hence the work descriptionswill be more concise.
