or more of construction costs. This type of work is very
specialized and includes materials and installations which

fans, chillers, condensers, conduit, and transformers. All
of these areas are thoroughly covered in this costbook. Over

costs, and complete man-hour tables provide maximum coverage
and flexibility
Material costs for thousands of items based on current national averages
(including allowances for transport, handling and storage).
Labor costs based on the prevailing rates for each trade and type of
work, PLUS man-hour tables tied to each unit costs, so you can clearly see
exactly how the labor cost was calculated and make any necessary adjustments.
Equipment costs -- including rental and operating costs.
Square-foot Tables based on the cost-per-square-foot of hundreds of
actual projects -- invaluable data for quick, ballpark estimates. |
