Hi
Pradeep !

In CESMM , The Eight ( 8 ) most common types of component in each division of the class are compiled , but ,its not attempted to list all types component in any class,because the digit 9 is to be used for any type of component which is not among the eight listed.

Enjoy.

Cheers

Hi
Samuel !

CESMM is well designed to organize any civil engineering work.

It classifieds in to different categories like

Class A - Preliminaries
Class B - Ground Investigation
Class C - Geotechinal & other processes
Class D - Demolition & site clearance
like wise,it is easy to remember E-earth works,R-road works...
the work classification divides in to 3 divisions(each has max of 8 levels)
first division is of type of member
second division is of part of member with unit
third division is of required dimension

it cant be explained here,but you have to thouroughly read CESMM third edition.

please keep in mind,its not complicated.

Cheers
