Summary, etc. Briefly describes a history of quantity surveying, from the recording of payments to workmen and contractors on clay tablets, dated pre-331 BC to present day. Suggests the construction industry has changed drastically in the last 140 years, when quantity surveying was founded in England. Lists key areas of expertise which quantity surveyors have developed. Concludes that globalisation and the development of a tighter knit world community have led to the adoption of quantity surveying as a profession in countries other than Britain.
