详情	:	Traditionally, quantity surveyor (QS) is responsible for the cost and contract management functions in building projects, including preparation of construction contract documents, provision of cost advice and construction cost and contract administration. However, the cost significant activities in engineering projects may be different from that in building projects, and such differences may shed some light to the development of the role of QS in infrastructure projects. A research study has been held to investigate how QS is involved in these cost significant activities in typical engineering projects in order to find out how the impact of the problem of cost overrun for engineering projects can be minimized from QS’s perception. This talk is to report on the quantitative and qualitative results collected from the study, and to consolidate the recommendations made in the study for members’ reference. The content will touch upon cost management, contract management, the independent role of QS in infrastructure projects and the comparison with building projects.
