ABSTRACT

Infrastructure work is still declining, although there are plans to release £1.3bn worth of road network schemes over the next few years.

Network rail has published plans to spend £38bn on upgrade works over the next five years.

Water firms are to bring forward $400m of work into this financial year.

Spon's Civil Engineering and Highway Works Price Book 2015 from AECOM gives costs for both general and civil engineering works and highway works, and provides a full breakdown of labour, plant and material elements, with labour rates updated in line with the latest CIJC wage agreement. Beyond prices, it can be used as a comprehensive work manual for the UK’s civil engineering, surveying and construction business.

Use the access code inside the front cover of the book to get set up with internet access to this edition until the end of December 2015. We now provide SPON’S Online, a versatile and powerful online data viewing package, which replaces the estimating software and ebook of recent years.

This 29th edition incorporates a comprehensive review throughout:

  • Updated to come into line with the CESSM4 structure as well as MMHW
  • And with an expanded range of rail elements
