Codes, measurement and contracts in Saudi Arabia

Saudi Building Code

The SBC sets requirements across disciplines, including SBC 201 for general building, SBC 301 for loads, SBC 304 for concrete, SBC 401 for electrical, SBC 501 for mechanical and SBC 801 for fire protection.

Measurement

Bills of quantities commonly follow the Principles of Measurement (International), known as POMI, or a method of measurement written into the tender. We follow the method in your tender documents.

Contracts and tenders

Private projects commonly use FIDIC-based conditions. Public tenders follow the government procurement rules and portals, which set their own BOQ and submission formats.

Approvals

Building permits are issued through the municipal system, with civil defense requirements for fire and life safety. We confirm the submission requirements with your local consultant.

Questions answered

Can you price a client-issued BOQ?

Yes. Many Saudi tenders issue an unpriced BOQ that must be priced line by line without changing descriptions or item numbers. We check the BOQ quantities against the drawings, flag discrepancies and missing items for clarification, and price each line in the required format so your submission stays compliant.

Do you design to the Saudi Building Code?

Yes. Architectural drawings follow the relevant SBC parts, and structural design follows SBC 301 for loads and SBC 304 for concrete, with steel to the applicable SBC part. Final approval and stamping are carried out by a locally registered office where the authority requires it.

Do you support large residential developments?

Yes. Residential developments with repeated villa or apartment types are estimated per type and multiplied by the number of units, with shared infrastructure, amenities and external works priced separately. When the unit mix changes, the estimate updates without remeasuring the whole project.
