Specification : A specification is a specific description of a particular subject. An engineering specification contains detailed description of all workmanship and materials which are required to complete an engineering project in accordance with it’s drawings and details.The technical drawings of a structure will show the proportions and relative positions of the various components of the structure. The data regarding the drawings, quality of materials and workmanship is conveyed in a separate contract document which is known as the “specifications” for the work. Thus the drawings with the engineering specifications will completely define the structure. The specification is furnished separately along with the drawings and is an essential part of all engineering contracts.

Necessity of Specifications: The necessity of specifications are the following:-

1)The cost of the unit quantity of work is governed by it’s specification.
2)Specifications of a work are required to describe the quality and quantity of different materials required for a construction work and is one of the essential contract documents. Thus a contractor can make a programme to procure the materials required for a project and the owner can check the quality of materials conforming to the specifications.
3)This also specifies the workmanship and the method of doing work. Thus, specification of a work serves as a guide to the supervising staff of the contractor as well as to the owner to execute the work to their satisfaction.
4)A work is carried out according to it’s specification and the contractor is paid for the same .Any change in specification tends to change the tendered rate.

5)As the rate of work is based on specification, a contractor can calculate the rates of various items of works in a tender with his procurement rates of materials and labour.
6)Specification is necessary to specify the equipments ,tools and plants to be engaged for a work and thus enables to procure them beforehand.
