Although the QS admitted he did not rationalise rates, the failure was inconsequential because the valuation did not involve items with material quantity changes and any front-loading would have been beneficial to the contractor; the respondent's counterclaim was substantiated by photographs, consultant instructions and a quotation but unrelated items in the quotation were disallowed, leading the High Court to reduce the rectification award from RM124,000.00 to RM86,000.00 and otherwise uphold the Sessions Court judgment.
