  • are of even more conventional style
  • are constructed from typical building materials
  • are in a practical problem, as far as you can inform

However, if you’re without a degree, there’s still an option. Simply start work as a technical surveyor ( also referred to as surveying technician ) and then apply for a part time study while working to qualify as a quantity surveyor.
