Definitions
Industry standards include New Zealand standards relevant to quantity surveying,
and also enterprise and organisational standards.
Small buildings are small scale, light weight buildings, generally of non-specific
design, and of domestic scale with lightweight framing and/or concrete or concrete
masonry construction.
Trade sections are a breakdown of individual trades involved in a building project,
outlining their input into the construction of a building.
2
Measuring at this level relates to specific trade sections that relate to small buildings. It
does not relate to such areas as services, elaborate finishes, or civil engineering.
3
Documents related to selected trade sections include drawings and specifications.
4
All activities must comply with any policies, procedures, and requirements of the
organisation/s involved; the ethical codes of relevant professional bodies; and any
relevant legislative and/or regulatory requirements.

Please note
Providers must be granted consent to assess against standards (accredited) by NZQA, or
an inter-institutional body with delegated authority for quality assurance, before they can
report credits from assessment against unit standards or deliver courses of study leading
to that assessment.
Industry Training Organisations must be granted consent to assess against standards by
NZQA before they can register credits from assessment against unit standards.
Providers and Industry Training Organisations, which have been granted consent and
which are assessing against unit standards must engage with the moderation system that
applies to those standards.
Consent requirements and an outline of the moderation system that applies to this
standard are outlined in the Accreditation and Moderation Action Plan (AMAP). The
AMAP also includes useful information about special requirements for organisations
wishing to develop education and training programmes, such as minimum qualifications for
tutors and assessors, and special resource requirements.
