Summary
This book addresses the procurement of engineering services for a quality project. This guide, a comprehensive revision of the 2003 edition, outlines the functions of the consulting engineer in serving an owner/client. It explains common types of engineering services, the various methods of determining compensation for these services, and the general ranges of remuneration that competent consulting engineers receive for their services. This Manual provides a recommended procedure for interviewing and selecting a consulting engineer and guidance on contracts for engineering services.
