A bill was raised by contractor which read as follows
1.) Excavation in normal soil upto 1.5m - 250 cum
2.) Excavation in normal soil 1.5m to 3m - 240 cum
3.) Excavation in soft rock - 350 cum
4.) Excavation in hard rock - 250 cum
5.) Filling with available soil - 825 cum
6.) Filling with bought out soil - 1100 cum
How can I verify the above quantities, especially for item
no. 5 & 6?
What checks are necessary before releasing the bill ?
Answer Posted / rao
The total qty of filling should always be less than or
equal to the total qty of excavation of all types of soils.
Here in this case, the total qty of filling exceeds the
total qty of excavation, Hence the contractor has raised a
incorrect bill.
Before releasing the bill, the quantities are to be cross
checked with drawings and also practically on site visit.
