 USEFUL INFORMATION
1 m = 3.28 ft.
1 m2 = 10.75 sq.ft.
1 m3 = 35.28 cu.ft.

1 inch = 2.54 cm

1 brass = 100 sq.ft. = 9.3 m2

1 brass = 100 cu.ft. = 2.83 m3

1 bag of cement = 50 kg mass = 0.035 m3 volume =

1.23 cu.ft. volume

1 Gallon = 4.546 litre

1 Pound = 0.4536 kg
1 Tonne = 1000 kg
1 Quintal = 100 kg

1 Var = 1 Yard = 3 ft. = 90 cm = 0.9 m

1 Guntha = 33 ft x 33 ft = 1089 sq.ft. = 101.30 sq.m

1 Vigha = 16 Guntha
1 Acre = 2.5 Vigha = 40 Guntha = 4047 sq.m

1 Are = 100 m2
100 Are = 1 Hectare
1 Hectare = 2.471 Acre

 Weight of bar for 1 m length = kg where, d =
162
Diameter of bar.

 METHOD OF CALCULATING QUNTITIES

 Centre line method
 Long wall and Short wall method
Or
Out to Out & In to In method
Or
PWD method
 Crossing method

 The term Junction is used to indicate the meeting

points of cross walls or partition walls with mains
walls.

 At corner of building, No junction is formed.

 Drawing and Specification form important parts of

contract document.

 SPECIFICATION
  Rate of item depends upon Specification.
 Following details include in specifications:-
 Type and quality of materials
 Method of preparation of an item
 Quality of workmanship
 Method of measurement of an item
 Other details related to the item etc.

 Total Cost = Material Cost + Labour Cost + Equipment

Cost

 NBO = National Building Organisation

 SOR = Schedule of Rates
 CPWD = Central Public Work Department

 SOR is periodically revised after 3 years.

 Standard Size/Actual Size of Bricks = 19 x 9 x 9 cm.

 Nominal Size of Bricks = 20 x 10 x 10 cm.

 EMD = 1 to 2% of total cost

 SD = 10% of total cost

 Valuation :- Determining the value or fair price of a

property such as a building called Valuation.

 TASK WORK
 Also known as Out turn work.
 Task work = 8 hours shift.
Item Description Task work per day
Excavation in Ordinary soil 3 m3

R.C.C (1:1.5:3) 3 m3

 In 1 m3 brick masonry = 500 Nos bricks is used.

 In 1 m3 of brick work = 0.33 m3 or 0.30 m3 of mortar

is required.

 For concreting, 1 m3 of wet concrete = 1.52 m3 dry

concrete.
 For plastering, 1 m3 of wet mortar = 1.625 m3 dry
mortar. (30% filling joints & uneven surface & 25%
wet volume increased)

 Material at site account (MAS) = Form 35.

 Measurement book (MB) = Form 23.
 Muster Roll = Form 21.

 Mortgagor = The person who takes loans.

 Mortgagee = The person who advance loans.
 Lesee or Leaseholder = The person who takes lease.
 Lessor = The owner of property who grants lease.

 Gross Income = Net Income + Outgoings

 If i is the rate of interest, annual sinking fund,

instalment to accumulate 1 Rs in n years,
i
P= 1+i n − 1
 If i is the rate of interest, and 1 Rs is deposited every
year, total sinking fund accumulated at the end of n
year is,
1+i n − 1
Q= i
 DEPRECIATION
 Gradual loss in the value of property.
 Two method to find depreciation as below :-
 Straight Line Method
C−S
 D= n
Where, C = Original cost
S = Scrap value
n =Number of year
 Book value after m years = C – m x D.
 Constant % Method
1

 P=1-

 Book value after m years = C

 House yearly Rent = 5 to 10% of cost of House

 Obsolescence :- Gradual loss in value of property due
to change in fashions, design etc.

 SCRAP VALUE
 Scrap Value is the value of dismantled
materials of a property at the end of its
utility period.
 It taken as 5%.

 SALVAGE VALUE
 It is the value of a property at the end of its
useful life without being dismantled.
 It taken as 10%.

 Size of Standard Gauge Box = 33.3 cm x 30 cm x 35

cm.

 Deduction is not made for opening in

Plastering = up to 0.5 m2 area
Brickwork = up to 0.1 m2 area
Concrete work = up to 0.1 m2 area.

 Ratio of Labour cost to the Total cost of project = 1 : 4.

 Thickness of plastering = 12 mm.

 Number of Bricks usually carried by truck = 4000

Nos.
 Volume of Sand carried in a truck is approximately =
4 m3.

 Thickness of 25 gauge sheet is less than 1 mm.

 For Fully glazed steel door/window, Multiplying

Factor = 0.5.

 For Flush door, Multiplying Factor = 1.2.
