rules and fee information. Fees charged by Construction Dispute Resolution Services
(http://www.constructiondisputes-cdrs.com) will usually be less. Arbitrators are chosen from the National Roster
of Construction Arbitrators and are paid a fee by the parties. Legal representation, if desired (although
not necessary), is at the expense of each party. These fees do not include rental of a hearing room. An
initial filing fee is payable in full by a filing party when a claim, counterclaim or additional claim is filed. A
case service fee is payable at the time the first hearing is scheduled. This fee will be refunded at the
conclusion of the case if no hearings have occurred so long as the Association was notified of
cancellation at least 24 hours before the first scheduled hearing. The minimum AAA filing fee for any
case having three or more arbitrators is $2,750 plus a $1,000 case service fee.

Building Permit Fees Fees are set by each jurisdiction and can vary widely. Building departments publish
current fee schedules. The permit fee will usually be doubled when work is started without securing a permit.
When the valuation of the proposed construction exceeds $1,000, plans are usually required. Estimate the
plan check fee at 65% of the permit fee for residences and 100% of the permit fee for non-residential
buildings. Estimate the fee for reinspection at $145 per hour. Inspections outside normal business hours are
about $145 per hour with a two hour minimum. Estimate the fee for additional plan review required by
changes, additions or revisions to approved plans at $155 per hour with a one-half hour minimum. Plumbing,
electrical and mechanical work will usually require a separate permit based on a similar fee schedule.
Valuations are based on a table published by the I.C.C. at: http://www.iccsafe.org/cs/Pages/BVD.aspx

Steel Framing, Rule of Thumb Light-gauge steel framing cost per square foot of living area. These
figures will apply on most crawl space and basement homes. Labor and material cost will be about 30%
less for framing over a slab on grade. Complex framing jobs will cost more. The seven lines of cost data
under “Steel framing rule of thumb cost breakdown” below show the cost breakdown for framing a
medium cost house. Add $1.50 to $3.00 per SF of floor if engineer approval is required (plans not based
on code tables). Material cost assumes precut materials fastened with screws. Labor cost includes
layout, assembly, plumb and align.

Piecework Steel Framing Steel framing on residential tracts is sometimes done by sub-
contractors who bid at piecework rates (such as per square foot of floor). The figures below list typical
piecework rates for repetitive framing and assume all materials are supplied to the framing
subcontractor. No figures appear in the Craft@Hrs column because the work is done for a fixed price per
square foot and the labor productivity can be expected to vary widely.

Insulated Concrete Forms (ICFs) Expanded polystyrene (EPS) forms for residential and commercial
reinforced concrete walls 4", 6" or 8" thick. Based on standard sized block connected with plastic clips
and reinforced with steel bars before cores are filled with concrete. Costs assume forms are left in place
as wall insulation and that no concrete finishing is required. See www.eco-block.com. The crew is a
carpenter and a laborer. Material costs include EPS forms and connectors as described but no concrete
or rebar.

Cement and expanded polystyrene forms Similar to EPS forms above but with cement added to the
mix: Recycled polystyrene (85%) and concrete (15%) building blocks with a grid of internal chambers
designed to be placed either horizontally or vertically. Available brands are Rastra Block and Grid-WALL.
Once the panels are in place they are filled with concrete providing a high strength, fireproof structural
grid. Includes cement filling and grouting. When cut for odd sizes use per sq ft pricing.

Use to calculate concrete and rebar costs:
1.1 cubic yards of concrete are required to fill 100 square feet of Grid-WALL.
1 Grid-WALL block will take 8 ft. of rebar, unless engineered otherwise.
Concrete Formwork Multiple use of forms assumes that forms can be removed, partially disas-
sembled and cleaned and that 75% of the form material can be reused. Costs include assembly, oiling,
setting, stripping and cleaning. Material costs in this section can be adjusted to reflect your actual cost of
lumber. Here's how: Divide your actual lumber cost per MBF by the assumed cost (listed in paren-
theses). Then multiply the cost in the material column by this adjustment factor. For expanded coverage
of concrete and formwork, see the National Concrete & Masonry Estimator at http://CraftsmanSiteLicense.com.

Concrete Footings
Concrete Footings, Grade Beams and Stem Walls Use the figures below for preliminary estimates.
Concrete costs are based on 2,000 PSI, 5.0 sack mix with 1" aggregate placed directly from the chute of
a ready-mix truck. Figures in parentheses show the cubic yards of concrete per linear foot of foundation
(including 5% waste). Costs shown include concrete, 60 pounds of reinforcing per CY of concrete, and
typical excavation using a 3/4 CY backhoe with excess backfill spread on site.
Footings and grade beams Cast directly against the earth, no forming or finishing required. These
costs assume the top of the foundation will be at finished grade. For scheduling purposes estimate that
a crew of 3 can lay out, excavate, place and tie the reinforcing steel and place 13 CY of concrete in an
8-hour day. Use $900.00 as a minimum job charge.

Tricks of the trade: To estimate the cost of footing or grade beam sizes not shown, multiply the width in
inches by the depth in inches and divide the result by 3700. This is the CY of concrete per LF of footing
including 5% waste. Multiply by the “Typical cost per CY” in the prior table to find the cost per LF.
Continuous concrete footing with foundation stem wall These figures assume the foundation stem
wall projects 24" above the finished grade and extends into the soil 18" to the top of the footing. Costs
shown include typical excavation using a 3/4 CY backhoe with excess backfill spread on site, forming
both sides of the foundation wall and the footing, based on three uses of the forms and 2 #4 rebar. Use
$1,200.00 as a minimum cost for this type work.

Markup Typical markup for light construction, percentage of gross contract price. No insurance or taxes
included. See also Insurance and Taxes sections. Markup is the amount added to an estimate after all
job costs have been accounted for: labor and materials, job fees, permits, bonds and insurance, job site
supervision and similar job-related expenses. Profit is the return on money invested in the construction
business.
Contingency (allowance for unknown and unforeseen conditions)
Varies widely from job to job, typically — % — — 2.0
Overhead (office, administrative and general business expense)
Typical overhead expense — % — — 10.0
Profit (return on the money invested in the business, varies with competitive conditions)
Typical profit for residential construction — % — — 8.0
Total markup (add 25% to the total job cost to attain 20% of gross contract price)
Total for Contingency, Overhead & Profit — % — — 20.0
Note that costs listed in this book do not include the general contractor’s markup. However, sections
identified as “subcontract” include the subcontractor’s markup. Here’s how to calculate markup:
Project Costs
Material $ 50,000
Labor (with taxes & insurance) 40,000
Subcontract 10,000
Total job costs 100,000
Markup (25% of $100,000) $ 25,000
Contract price $125,000
Markup is $25,000 which is 25% of the total job costs ($100,000) but only 20% of the contract price
($25,000 divided by $125,000 is .20).
208
Masonry, Brick
Markup For General Contractors On larger commercial and industrial projects, a markup of 24.8% on
the total job cost is suggested. See the paragraph General Contractor Markup at the beginning of the
section General Requirements in the Industrial and Commercial Division of this manual. For example,
note how markup is calculated on a project with these costs:
Material $ 3,000,000
Labor (with taxes and insurance) 4,500,000
Equipment 1,000,000
Subcontracts 1,500,000
Total job cost $10,000,000
Indirect overhead (8%) 800,000
Direct overhead (7.3%) 730,000
Contingency (2%) 200,000
Profit (7.5%) 750,000
Contract price $12,480,000
Note that the total job cost includes both work done with the general contractor’s crews and work done
by subcontractor-specialists. Markup for the general contractor (overhead, including supervision
expense, contingency and profit) is $2,480,000. This is 24.8% of the total job costs but only 19.87% of
the contract price ($2,480,000 divided by $12,480,000 is 0.1987).

Masonry, Brick Wall Assemblies Typical costs for smooth red clay brick walls, laid in running bond
with 3/8" concave joints. These costs include the bricks, mortar for bricks and cavities, typical ladder type
reinforcing, wall ties and normal waste. Foundations are not included. Wall thickness shown is the
nominal size based on using the type bricks described. “Wythe” means the quantity of bricks in the
thickness of the wall. Costs shown are per square foot (SF) of wall measured on one face. Deduct for
openings over 10 SF in size. The names and dimensions of bricks can be expected to vary, depending
on the manufacturer. For more detailed coverage of brick and masonry see the National Concrete &
Masonry Estimator at http://CraftsmanSiteLicense.com.

Paint Removal

Paint Removal Dustless removal of lead-based paints. The removal system is a mechanical process
and no water, chemicals or abrasive grit are used. Containment or special ventilation is not required.
Based on Pentek Inc. Costs shown are for a 5,000 SF or larger job. For estimating purposes figure one
55-gallon drum of contaminated waste per 2,500 square feet of coatings removed from surfaces with an
average coating thickness of 12 mils. Waste disposal costs are not included. Use $5,000 as a minimum
charge for work of this type. On pre-1978 homes, child care facilities and schools, rules adopted by the
Environmental Protection Agency require that: (1) a trained supervisor be on site during paint removal,
(2) those affected be given a copy of the EPA pamphlet on lead paint removal, (3) records be retained
for three years and (4) steps be taken to prevent the spread of dust and debris. For more information,
see http://www.epa.gov/lead/pubs/sbcomplianceguide.pdf.

Plumbing Fixtures and Equipment

Plumbing Fixtures and Equipment Costs are for good to better quality fixtures and trim installed with
the accessories listed. All vitreous china, enameled steel, cast iron, and fiberglass fixtures are white
except as noted. Colored acrylic fiberglass fixtures will cost about 6% more. Colored enameled steel,
cast iron, or vitreous fixtures will cost about 25% more. No rough plumbing included. Rough plumbing is
the drain, waste and vent (DWV) piping and water supply piping that isn’t exposed when construction is
complete. See costs for rough plumbing at the end of this section. Minimum quality fixtures and trim will
cost 10% to 20% less. Deluxe fixtures will cost much more. Installation times assume standard quality
work and uncomplicated layouts. For expanded coverage of plumbing cost estimates, see the National

Whole House Plumbing Rough-In
Rough plumbing is the drain, waste and vent (DWV) piping and water supply piping that isn’t visible
when construction is complete. Rough plumbing costs vary with the number of fixtures and length of the
pipe runs. The figures in this section show rough plumbing costs for a typical single family home using
plastic drainage and copper water supply materials. No plumbing fixtures, equipment or their final
connections are included in these costs. See Plumbing Fixtures and Equipment for fixture and fixture
connection costs. These costs include the subcontractor’s markup. Add the general contractor’s markup
when applicable. For more complete information on plumbing and piping costs, see National Plumbing

The figures under the column “$ per SF of Floor” show construction costs for building a good quality home in a suburban
area under competitive conditions in each calendar quarter since 1997. This home is described below under the section
“Residential Rule of Thumb.” These costs include the builder’s overhead and profit and a 450 square foot garage but no
basement. The cost of a finished basement per square foot will be approximately 30% of the square foot cost of living
area. If the garage area is more than 450 square feet, use 50% of the living area cost to adjust for the larger or smaller
garage. To find the total construction cost of the home, multiply the living area (excluding the garage) by the cost in the
column “$ per SF of Floor.”

Hourly Labor Costs
The hourly labor costs shown in the column headed “Hourly Cost” have been used to compute the manhour costs for the
crews on pages 8 and 9 and the costs in the “Labor” column on pages 310 to 639 of this book. All figures are in U.S. dollars
per hour.
“Hourly Wage and Benefits” includes the wage, welfare, pension, vacation, apprentice and other mandatory contributions.
The “Typical Employer’s Burden” is the cost to the contractor for Unemployment Insurance (FUTA), Social Security (FICA)
and Medicare, state unemployment insurance, workers’ compensation insurance and liability insurance. Tax and insurance
expense included in these labor-hour costs are itemized in the sections beginning on pages 184 and 285.
These hourly labor costs will apply within a few percent on many jobs. But wages may be much higher or lower on the job
you are estimating. If the hourly cost on this page is not accurate for your jobs, use the labor cost adjustment procedure on
page 11.
If your hourly labor cost is not known and can’t be estimated, use both labor and material figures in this book without
adjustment. When all material and labor costs have been compiled, multiply the total by the appropriate figure in the area
modification table on pages 12 through 15.

01 General Requirements
General Contractor’s Markup Costs in this manual do not include the general contractor’s markup. Costs in
sections identified as subcontract are representative of prices quoted by subcontractors and include the
subcontractor’s markup. See pages 3 through 5 for more on subcontracted work and markup. Typical markup
for general contractors handling commercial and industrial projects is shown at the bottom of this page. The two
sections that follow, Indirect Overhead and Direct Overhead, give a more detailed breakdown.
Indirect Overhead (home office overhead)

This cost, usually estimated as a percentage, is calculated by dividing average annual indirect overhead costs by
average annual receipts. Temporary increases or decreases in revenue usually won’t affect indirect overhead
expense as much as direct overhead expense.
The figures below show typical indirect overhead costs per $1,000 of estimated project costs for a general contractor
handling $600,000 to $1,000,000 commercial and industrial projects. Indirect overhead costs vary widely but will be
about 8% of gross for most profitable firms. Total indirect overhead cost ($20.00 per $1,000 for materials and $60.00
per $1,000 for labor) appears as 2.0% and 6.0% under Total General Contractor’s Markup at the bottom of this page.

Rent, office supplies, utilities, equipment, advertising, etc. — M$ 20.00 — 20.00
Office salaries and professional fees — M$ — 60.00 60.00
General Contractor’s indirect overhead — M$ 20.00 60.00 80.00
Direct Overhead (job site overhead)

The figures below show typical direct overhead costs per $1,000 of a project’s total estimated costs for a general
contractor handling a $600,000 to $1,000,000 job that requires 6 to 9 months for completion. Use these figures for
preliminary estimates and to check final bids. Add the cost of mobilization, watchmen, fencing, hoisting, permits,
bonds, scaffolding and testing. Total direct overhead cost ($14.30 per $1,000 for materials and $58.70 per $1,000 for
labor) appears as 1.4% and 5.9% under Total General Contractor’s Markup at the bottom of this page. These costs
can be expected to vary and will usually be lower on larger projects.

Project Financing Construction loans are usually made for a term of up to 18 months. The maximum loan will be
based on the value of the land and building when completed. Typically this maximum is 75% for commercial,
industrial and apartment buildings and 77.5% for tract housing.
The initial loan disbursement will be about 50% of the land cost. Periodic disbursements are based on the
percentage of completion as verified by voucher or inspection. The last 20% of loan proceeds is disbursed when an
occupancy permit is issued. Fund control fees cover the cost of monitoring disbursements. Typical loan fees, loan
rates and fund control fees are listed below.

Sewer Connection Fees Check with the local sanitation district for actual charges. These costs are typical for work
done by city or county crews and include excavation, re-compaction and repairs to the street. Note that these costs
are set by local government and will vary widely. These costs do not include capacity fees or other charges which are
often levied on connection to new construction. The capacity fee per living unit may be $3,000 or more. For commer-
cial buildings, figure 20 fixture units equal one living unit. A 6" sewer connection will be required for buildings that
include more than 216 fixture units. (Bathtubs, showers and sinks are 2 fixture units, water closets are 4, clothes
washers are 3 and lavatories are 1.) The costs shown assume that work will be done by sanitation district crews.

Formwork for Concrete Labor costs include the time needed to prepare formwork sketches at the job site,
measure for the forms, fabricate, erect, align, brace, strip, clean and stack the forms. Costs for reinforcing and
concrete are not included. Multiple use of forms shows the cost per use when a form is used several times on the
same job without being totally disassembled or discarded. Normal cleaning and repairs are included in the labor
cost on lines that show multiple use of forms. Costs will be higher if plans are not detailed enough to identify the work
to be performed. No salvage value is assumed except as noted. Costs listed are per square foot of form in contact
with the concrete (SFCA). These costs assume Standard and Better lumber price of $653 per MBF and $1,310 per
MSF for 3/4" plyform before waste allowance. For more detailed coverage of concrete formwork, see National
Concrete & Masonry Estimator, http://CraftsmanSiteLicense.com
Wall footing, grade beam or tie beam forms These figures assume nails, stakes and form oil costing $.25 per
square foot and 2.5 board feet of lumber are used for each square foot of form in contact with the concrete (SFCA).
To calculate the quantity of formwork required, multiply the depth of footing in feet by the length of footing in feet.
Then double the results if two sides will be formed. For scheduling purposes, estimate that a crew of 5 can lay out,
fabricate and erect 600 to 700 SF of footing, grade beam or tie beam forms in an 8-hour day.

Steel-framed plywood forms Rented steel-framed plywood forms can reduce forming costs on many jobs. Where
rented forms are used 3 times a month, use the wall-forming costs shown for 3 uses at the appropriate height but
deduct 25% from the material cost and 50% from the labor manhours and labor costs. Savings will be smaller where
layouts change from one use to the next, when form penetrations must be made and repaired before returning a
form, where form delivery costs are high, and where non-standard form sizes are needed. For more detailed
coverage of steel-framed plywood forms, see National Concrete & Masonry Estimator, http://CraftsmanSiteLicense.com
Column forms for square or rectangular columns Quantities in parentheses show the cross-section area of a

Column capitals for square columns Capital forms for square columns usually have four symmetrical sides.
Length and width at the top of the capital are usually twice the length and width at the bottom of the capital. Height is
usually the same as the width at the capital base. These costs assume capitals installed not over 12' above floor
level, use of nails, form oil, shores and accessories with 1.5 SF of plyform and 2 BF of lumber per SF of contact area
(SFCA). Complexity of these forms usually makes more than 3 uses impractical.
For scheduling purposes estimate that a crew of 5 can lay out, fabricate and erect the following quantities of capital
formwork in an 8-hour day:
70 to 80 SF for 12" to 16" columns 90 to 100 SF for 20" to 24" columns

Column forms for round columns Use the costs below to estimate round fiber tube forms (Sonotube is one
manufacturer). Add the cost of column footings or foundations. These forms are peeled off when the concrete has
cured. Costs shown include setting, aligning, bracing and stripping and assume that bracing and collars at top and
bottom can be used 3 times. Column forms over 12'0" long will cost more per linear foot. Costs are per linear foot for
standard weight column forms. Plastic lined forms have one vertical seam. For scheduling purposes, estimate that a
crew of 5 can lay out, erect and brace the following quantities of 10' to 12' high round fiber tube forms in an 8-hour
day: twenty 8" to 12" diameter columns; sixteen 14" to 20" columns and twelve 24" to 48" columns. For more detailed

Column capitals for round columns

Use these figures to estimate costs for rented prefabricated steel conical-shaped capital forms. Costs assume a
minimum rental period of 1 month and include an allowance for nails and form oil. Labor shown assumes the capital
will be supported from the deck formwork above the capital and includes laying out and cutting the hole in the deck
to receive the capital. Capital bottom diameter is sized to fit into the column tube form. The column form size
(diameter) does not significantly affect the capital form rental cost. Dimensions shown below are the top diameter.
Form weights are shown in parentheses. Only 3 uses of these forms are usually possible in a 30-day period. Setting
forms and installing reinforcing steel takes one day, concrete placing takes another day, curing requires 7 to 10 days,
removing and cleaning forms takes another day. For scheduling purposes estimate that a crew of 5 can lay out, cut
openings in floor deck formwork and install an average of 8 or 9 round column capital forms in an 8-hour day.

Cast-in-Place Concrete Steps-on-Grade Assemblies Typical in-place costs, including layout, fabrication and
placing forms, setting and tying steel reinforcing, installation of steel nosing, placing 2,000 PSI concrete directly from
the chute of a ready-mix truck, finishing, stripping forms and curing. Costs assume excavation, back filling and
compaction have been completed by others. Crew is a carpenter, laborer and finisher. Formwork is based on using
standard & better lumber and concrete and includes a 5% waste allowance. For scheduling purposes, estimate that
a crew of 3 can set forms and place steel for and pour 4 to 5 CY of concrete cast-in-place steps in an 8-hour day.
Costs shown are for concrete steps with a 6" riser height and 12" tread depth supported by a 6" thick monolithic slab.
The “tricks of the trade” next page explains how to use these unit prices to estimate stairways of various widths and
heights. Note: Total cost per CY has been rounded. For more detailed coverage of formed concrete stairs, see the

Total cost per CY of concrete [email protected] CY 330.00 257.00 587.00
Tricks of the trade:

To quickly estimate the cost of cast-in-place concrete steps-on-grade, do this:
Multiply the width of the steps (in feet) times their height in feet and multiply the result times 2.
This will give the total linear feet (LF) of risers in the steps. Multiply the total LF by the costs per LF.
Sample estimates for cast-in-place concrete steps-on-grade using the procedure and costs from above:
2'6" wide by 3' high (6 steps) would be: 2.5' x 3' x 2 = 15 LF x $17.61 = $264.15
3' wide by 3' high (6 steps) would be: 3' x 3' x 2 = 18 LF x $17.61 = $316.98
4' wide by 4' high (8 steps) would be: 4' x 4' x 2 = 32 LF x $17.61 = $563.52
7' wide by 4'6" high (9 steps) would be: 7' x 4.5' x 2 = 63 LF x $17.61 = $1,109.43
Tip for using these estimates with The National Estimator computer estimating program:
Calculate the linear feet of stair, copy and paste the line “Total cost per LF of risers” and type the quantity.

Foundations and footings for tilt-up Costs assume normal soil conditions with no forming or shoring required
and are based on concrete poured directly from the chute of a ready-mix truck. Soil excavated and not needed for
backfill can be stored on site and used by others. For scheduling purposes, estimate that a crew of 5 can set forms
for and pour 40 to 50 CY of concrete footings and foundations in an 8-hour day.

Floor slabs for tilt-up These costs assume that the site has been graded and compacted by others before slab work
begins. The costs below include fine grading the site, placing a 2" layer of sand, a vapor barrier and a second 2" layer of
sand over the barrier. Each layer of sand should be screeded level. Reinforcing may be either wire mesh or bars. When
sand and vapor barrier are used, concrete may have to be pumped in place. If inspection of the reinforcing is required,
the cost will usually be included in the building permit fee. Floor slabs are usually poured 6" deep in 14' to 18' wide strips
with edge forms on both sides and ends. Edge forms are used as supports for the mechanical screed which
consolidates the concrete with pneumatic vibrators as the surface is leveled. The screed is pulled forward by a winch
and cable. Edge forms should have an offset edge to provide a groove which is filled by the adjacent slab. The slab
perimeter should end 2' to 3' inside the finished building walls. This “pour strip” is filled in with concrete when the walls
are up and braces have been removed. About 2 days after pouring, the slab should be saw-cut 1-1/2" to 2" deep and
1/4" wide each 20' both ways. This controls cracking as the slab cures. For scheduling purposes, estimate that a
finishing crew of 10 workers can place and finish 10,000 to 12,000 square feet of slab in 8 hours.

Tilt-up wall panels Wall thickness is usually a nominal 6" (5-1/2" actual) or a nominal 8" (7-1/2"). Panel heights over
40' are uncommon. Typical panel width is 20'. When the floor area isn't large enough to form all wall panels on the
floor slab, stacking will be required. Construction period will be longer and the costs higher than the figures shown
below when panels must be poured and cured in stacked multiple layers. When calculating the volume of concrete
required, the usual practice is to multiply overall panel dimensions (width, length and thickness) and deduct only for
panel openings that exceed 25 square feet. When pilasters (thickened wall sections) are formed as part of the panel,
add the cost of extra formwork and the additional concrete. Use the production rates that follow for scheduling a job.

03 Concrete
Production rates for tilt-up

Lay out and form panels, place reinforcing bars and install embedded lifting devices:
2,000 to 3,000 SF of panel face (measured one side) per 8-hour day for a crew of 5. Note that reinforcing may have
to be inspected before concrete is poured.
Place and finish concrete: 4,000 to 5,000 SF of panel per 8-hour day for a crew of 5.
Continuous inspection of the concrete pour by a licensed inspector may be required.
The minimum charge will usually be 4 hours at $50 per hour plus travel cost.
Install ledgers with embedded anchor bolts on panels before the concrete hardens:
150 to 200 LF of ledger per 8-hour day for a crew of 2.
Sack and patch exposed panel face before panel is erected:
2,000 to 3,000 SF of panel face per 8-hour day for a crew of 2.
Install panel braces before lifting panels:
30 to 40 braces per 8-hour day for a crew of 2. Panels usually need 3 or 4 braces. Braces are usually rented for
30 days.
Tilt up and set panels 20 to 24 panels per 8-hour day for a crew of 11 (6 workers, the crane operator, oiler and
3 riggers). If the crew sets 22 panels averaging 400 SF each in an 8-hour day, the crew is setting 1,100 SF per hour.
These figures include time for setting and aligning panels, drilling the floor slab for brace bolts, and securing the
panel braces. Panel tilt-up will go slower if the crane can’t work from the floor slab when lifting panels. Good planning
of the panel lifting sequence and easy exit of the crane from the building interior will increase productivity. Size and
weight of the panel has little influence on the setting time if the crane is capable of making the lift and is equipped
with the right rigging equipment, spreader bars and strongbacks. Panels will usually have to cure for 14 days before
lifting unless high early strength concrete is used.
Weld or bolt steel embedded in panels: 16 to 18 connections per 8-hour day for a crew of 2 working from ladders.
Work more than 30 feet above the floor may take more time.
Sack and patch panel faces after erection: 400 SF of face per 8-hour day for a crew of 2.

Trash enclosures for tilt-up These usually consist of a 6" concrete slab measuring 5' x 10' and precast concrete tilt-
up panels 6' high. A 6" ledger usually runs along the wall interior. Overall wall length is usually 20 feet. Cost for the trash
enclosure foundation, floor slab and wall will be approximately the same as for the tilt-up foundation, floor slab and wall.
The installed cost of a two-leaf steel gate measuring 6' high and 8' long overall will be about $460 including hardware.
Equipment Foundations Except as noted, no grading, compacting, engineering, design, permit or inspection fees
are included. Costs assume normal soil conditions with no shoring or dewatering required and are based on
concrete poured directly from the chute of a ready-mix truck. Costs will be higher if access is not available from all
sides or if obstructions delay the work.
Labor costs include the time needed to prepare formwork sketches at the job site, measure for the
forms, fabricate, erect, align and brace the forms, place and tie the reinforcing steel and
embedded steel items, pour and finish the concrete and strip, clean and stack the forms.
Reinforcing steel costs assume an average of #3 and #4 bars at 12" on center each way. Weights
shown include an allowance for waste and laps.
Form costs assume 3 uses of the forms and show the cost per use when a form is used on the
same job without being totally disassembled. Normal cleaning and repairs are included. No
salvage value is assumed. Costs listed are per square foot of form in contact with the concrete,
assume using #2 & Btr lumber
For scheduling purposes, estimate that a crew of 5 can set the forms and place and tie the reinforcing steel for and
pour 8 to 10 CY of concrete equipment foundations in an 8-hour day.
Rule-of-thumb estimates The costs below are based on the volume of concrete in the foundation. If plans for the
foundation have not been prepared, estimate the quantity of concrete required from the weight of the equipment
using the rule-of-thumb estimating data below. Design considerations may alter the actual quantities required. Based
on the type foundation required, use the cost per CY given in the detailed cost breakdown section which follows the
table on the next page.
Estimating concrete quantity from the weight of equipment:
1. Rectangular pad type foundations —
Boilers and similar equipment mounted at grade:
Allow 1 CY per ton
Centrifugal pumps and compressors, including weight of motor:
Up to 2 HP, allow .5 CY per ton
Over 2 to 10 HP, allow 1 CY per ton
Over 10 to 30 HP, allow 2 CY per ton
Over 30 HP, allow 3 CY per ton
Reciprocating pumps and compressors, including weight of motor:
Up to 2 HP, allow .75 CY per ton
Over 2 to 10 HP, allow 1.5 CY per ton
Over 10 to 30 HP, allow 2.5 CY per ton
Over 30 HP, allow 4.5 CY per ton
2. Rectangular pad and stem wall type foundations — Horizontal tanks
or shell and tube heat exchangers, allow 6 CY per ton
3. Square pad and pedestal type foundations — Vertical tanks not over 3' in diameter, allow 6 CY per ton
4. Octagonal pad and pedestal type foundations — Vertical tanks over 3' in diameter, allow 4 CY per

Chemical-Resistant Brick or Tile, Subcontract (also known as acid-proof brick).Typical prices for chemical-
resistant brick or tile meeting ASTM C-279, types I, II, and III requirements. Installed with 1/8" thick bed and mortar
joints over a membrane of either elastomeric bonded to the floors or walls, sheet membrane with a special seam
treatment, squeegee hot-applied asphalt, cold-applied adhesive troweled on, or special spray-applied material. The
setting bed and joint materials can be either 100% carbon-filled furan or phenolic, sodium or potassium silicates,
silica-filled epoxy, polyester, vinyl ester or other special mortars. Expansion joints are required in floor construction,
particularly where construction joints exist in the concrete. Additional expansion joints may be required, depending
on the service conditions to which the floor will be subjected. Brick or tile will be either 3-3/4" x 8" face, 1-1/8" thick
(splits); 3-3/4" x 8" face, 2-1/4" thick (singles); or 4" x 8" face, 1-3/8" thick (pavers). Costs are based on a 2,000 SF job.
For smaller projects, increase the cost 5% for each 500 SF or portion of 500 SF less than 2,000 SF. For scheduling
purposes estimate that a crew of 4 can install 75 to 100 SF of membrane and brick in an 8-hour day. These costs
assume that the membrane is laid on a suitable surface prepared by others and include the subcontractor’s
overhead and profit.

Structural Steel Costs shown below are for 60 to 100 ton jobs up to six stories high where the fabricated structural
steel is purchased from a steel fabricator located within 50 miles of the job site. Material costs are for ASTM A36
steel, fabricated according to plans, specifications and AISC recommendations and delivered to the job site with
connections attached, piece marked and ready for erection. Labor includes time to unload and handle the steel,
erect and plumb, install permanent bolts, weld and all other work usually associated with erecting the steel, including
field touch-up painting. Equipment includes a 60 ton crawler mounted crane, plus an electric powered welding
machine, an oxygen/acetylene welding and cutting torch, a diesel powered 100 CFM air compressor with pneumatic
grinders, ratchet wrenches, hoses, and other tools usually associated with work of this type. Structural steel is usually
estimated by the tons of steel in the project. Labor for erection will vary with the weight of steel per linear foot. For
example a member weighing 25 pounds per foot will require more manhours per ton than one weighing 60 pounds
per foot.
Structural shapes Estimate the total weight of “bare” fabricated structural shapes and then add 15% to allow for
the weight of connections.

Panelized Wood Roof Systems The costs shown will apply on 20,000 to 30,000 SF jobs where roof panels are
fabricated near the point of installation and moved into place with a forklift. Costs will be higher on smaller jobs and
jobs with poor access. 4' x 8' and 4' x 10' roof panels are made of plywood or OSB nailed to 2" x 4" or 2" x 6" stiffeners
spaced 24" on centers and running the long dimension of the panel. Based on fabricated panels lifted by forklift (with
metal hangers attached) and nailed to 4" x 12" or 4" x 14" roof purlins spaced 8' on center. Equipment cost is for a 4-
ton forklift (40' lift), a truck with hand tools, a gas powered air compressor with air hoses and two pneumatic-
operated nailing guns. Costs are per 1,000 square feet (MSF) of roof surface and do not include roof supports
except as noted.
For scheduling purposes, estimate that a crew of 5 can fabricate 6,000 to 6,400 SF of 4' x 8' or 4' x 10' panels in an 8-

Exterior Wall Insulation and Finish System (EIFS) Polymer based exterior non-structural wall finish applied to
concrete, masonry, stucco or exterior grade gypsum sheathing (such as Dryvit). System consists of a plaster base
coat approximately 1/4" thick, and a glass fiber mesh embedded in the adhesive base coat. The base coat is applied
over polystyrene insulation boards bonded to an existing flat vertical wall surface with adhesive. Costs shown are per
SF of finished wall surface. These costs do not include surface preparation or wall costs. Add the cost of scaffolding
if required. Add 50% to the labor costs when work is done from scaffolding.
For scheduling purposes, estimate that a crew of three can field apply 250 SF of exterior wall insulation and finish
systems in an 8-hour day.

Cast-in-Place Concrete Fireproofing Costs per linear foot (LF) of steel beam, column or girder. Use these figures
to estimate the cubic feet (CF) of concrete per linear foot and square feet (SF) of form required per linear foot for
each type of beam, column or girder. Quantities include concrete required to fill the void between the web and flange
and provide 2" protection at the flanges. A small change in concrete thickness at flanges has very little effect on cost.
Use $7,500.00 as a minimum job cost for work of this type. Concrete thickness for fireproofing will usually be:
Members at least 6" x 6" but less than 8" x 8" — 3" for a 4 hour rating, 2" for a 3 hour rating, 1-1/2" for a 2 hour
rating, and 1" for a 1 hour rating.
Members at least 8" x 8" but less than 12" x 12" — 2-1/2" for a 4 hour rating, 2" for a 3 hour rating, 1" for a 1 or
2 hour rating.
Members 12" x 12" or greater — 2" for a 4 hour rating and 1" for a 1, 2, or 3 hour rating.
Labor costs include the time needed to prepare formwork sketches at the job site, measure for the forms, fabricate,
erect, align and brace the forms, cut, bend, place and tie the reinforcing steel, install embedded steel items, place
and finish the concrete and strip, clean and stack the forms. Labor costs assume a concrete forming, placing and
finishing crew of 1 carpenter, 1 laborer and 1 cement finisher. Concrete placing equipment assumes the use of a
concrete pump.
407

For scheduling purposes, estimate that a crew of 3 will fireproof the following quantities of steel in an 8-hour day:
15 LF of W21 through W36 members,
25 LF of W8 through W18 members, 22 LF of S12 through S24 members, and 42 LF of M4 through W6 or S6
through S8 members.
Material costs assume reinforcing steel is #3 and #4 bars at 12" on center each way and includes waste and laps.
Form cost assumes 3 uses without completely disassembling the form. Normal cleaning and repairs are included.
No salvage value is assumed. Cost for forms, before allowance for waste, is based on Standard & Better lumber and
3/4" plyform.

Spray-Applied Fireproofing, Subcontract Fire endurance coating made from inorganic vermiculite and Portland
cement. Costs assume a 10,000 board foot job. (One BF is one square foot covered 1" thick.) For smaller jobs,
increase the cost by 5% for each 500 BF less than 10,000 BF. Use $2,000 as a minimum subcontract price. For
thickness other than 1", adjust these costs proportionately. For scheduling purposes, estimate that a crew of
2 plasterers and 1 helper can apply 200 to 250 board feet per hour.

Metal-Framed Shaft Walls Shaft walls are used to enclose vertical shafts that surround plumbing and electrical
chases, elevators and stairwells. A 2-hour wall can be made from 1" gypsum wallboard screwed to a 2-1/2" metal
stud partition on the shaft side with two layers of 5/8" gypsum wallboard screwed to the partition exterior face. The
wall cavity is filled with fiberglass batt insulation and the drywall is taped and finished on both sides. This wall will be
4-3/4" thick. Labor includes installing metal studs, installing the insulation, hanging, taping and finishing the drywall,
and cleanup. Metal studs and insulation include a 10% allowance for waste. Wallboard costs include corner and
edge trim and a 15% allowance for waste. Costs shown are per square foot of wall measured on one side. For
scheduling purposes, estimate that a crew of 4 can install metal studs and insulation, hang, tape and finish 320 SF
of shaft wall per 8-hour day.

Decontamination and Surface Preparation Dustless removal of undesirable surface contamination and paint
from steel and concrete substrates. Applications include PCBs, radioactivity, toxic chemicals and lead-based paints.
The removal system is a mechanical process and no water, chemicals or abrasive grit are used. Containment or
special ventilation is not required. Based on Pentek Inc. For estimating purposes figure one 55-gallon drum of
contaminated waste per 2,500 square feet of coatings removed from surfaces with an average coating thickness of
12 mils. Waste disposal costs are not included. Unit prices shown are based on a crew of three. Use $4,500 as a
minimum charge for work of this type. Equipment is based on using three pneumatic needle scaler units attached to
one air-powered vacuum-waste packing unit. Equipment cost includes one vacuum-waste packing unit, three needle
scalers, and one 150 CFM gas or diesel powered air compressor including all hoses and connectors. Add the one-
time charge for move-on, move-off and refurbishing of equipment as shown.

ABS DWV Pipe and Fittings Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ASTM D 2661-73) pipe is made from rubber-based
resins and used primarily for drain, waste and vent systems. The Uniform Plumbing Code limits ABS to residential
buildings and below grade applications in commercial and public buildings. Solvent-weld ABS is easier to install than
cast iron or copper drainage pipe. ABS does not rot, rust, corrode or collect waste and resists mechanical damage,
even at low temperatures.

Rough-in Plumbing Assemblies Includes rough-ins for commercial, industrial and residential buildings. This
section shows costs for typical rough-ins of drain, waste and vent (DWV) and water supply piping using either plastic
or metal pipe and fittings. Plastic ABS or PVC DWV pipe can be combined with plastic “poly b” supply pipe for a
complete residential rough-in assembly. Cast iron or copper drainage DWV pipe can be combined with copper
supply pipe for a complete commercial rough-in assembly. (Check local plumbing and building codes to determine
acceptable materials for above and below grade installations in your area.) Detailed estimates of the piping
requirements for each type plumbing fixture rough-in were made using the Uniform Plumbing Code as a guideline.
For scheduling purposes, estimate that a plumber and an apprentice can install rough-in piping for 3 to 4 plumbing
fixtures in an 8-hour day. The same plumber and apprentice will install, connect and test 3 to 4 fixtures a day. When
roughing-in less than 4 fixtures in a building, increase the rough-in cost 25% for each fixture less than 4. Add the cost
of the fixture and final connection assembly (as shown in Fixtures and Final Connection Assemblies) to the rough-in
assembly cost. Rule of Thumb: Use plastic drainage and supply pipe in economy residential applications. Use
plastic drainage and copper supply in quality residential applications. Use cast iron or copper DWV drainage and
copper supply pipe in quality commercial applications. In some jurisdictions, plastic drainage pipe is allowed below
grade for commercial applications only. In residential applications, plastic drainage pipe may be allowed in above
and below grade applications. The difference is the liability of the owner to the patrons of a public building vs. the
liability of the owner of a private residence in case of fire. ABS pipe releases toxic gases when it burns.

Snow-Melting Cable For concrete pavement. Self-regulating heater cable 208-277 volt AC, encased in concrete
pavement for walkways, steps, loading ramps or parking garages. Based on Raychem ElectroMeltTM System for
concrete pavement. Cable is cut to length at the site and laid in a serpentine pattern using 12-inch center-to-center
spacing. Use nylon cable ties to fasten cable to the top of reinforcing before concrete is placed. For scheduling
purposes estimate that a crew of one can lay out, cut to length, install and tie 600 LF of cable in an 8-hour day.
Based on 1.1 LF of cable per SF of pavement, including ties, “return bends” and waste, this yields 545 SF of
pavement. These costs do not include reinforcing, concrete or concrete placing. A rule of thumb for sizing circuit
breakers: For startup at 0 degrees F with 220 volts AC, allow 0.20 amps per LF of cable.

Ice-Melting Cable For roofs, gutters and downspouts. Self-regulating heater cable 120 or 208-277 volts AC, run
exposed on the surface of the roof or within gutters. Based on Raychem IceStopTM System for roofs and gutters.
Cable is cut to length on site and laid in a serpentine pattern using 24-inch center-to-center spacing and 32-inch loop
height. Fasten to the roof with Raychem clips. For scheduling purposes estimate that a crew of one can cut to length
and install 400 LF of cable in an 8-hour day. Based on 1.2 LF of cable per SF of protected roof area, including clips,
“return bends” and waste, this yields 330 SF of protected area. Figure each LF of gutter as equal to one SF of roof.
Figure each downspout as equal to 15 SF of roof. These costs do not include the roofing, gutters, or downspouts.
A rule of thumb for sizing circuit breakers: For startup at 0 degrees F with 120 volts AC, allow 0.17 amps per LF of
cable. For startup at 0 degrees F with 208-277 volts AC, allow 0.11 amps per LF of cable.

Site Clearing Using a dozer as described below, a 3/4 CY wheel loader and two 10 CY dump trucks. Clearing costs
will be higher on smaller jobs and where the terrain limits production. These costs include hauling 6 miles to a legal
dump. Dump fees are not included. See Waste Disposal. Figures in parentheses show the approximate “loose”
volume of the material to be loaded and hauled to the dump. For estimating purposes, assume that the cost of
moving equipment on and off the job site will be equal to the cost of clearing one acre. For more detailed coverage,
