Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual shows you, in simple, easy -to-understand language, how to calculate the amount of dirt you'll have to move, the cost of owning and operating the machines you'll do it with, and finally, how to assign bid prices to each part of the job. Using clear, detailed illustrations and examples, the author makes it easy to follow and duplicate his system. The book ends with a complete sample estimate, from the take-off to completing the bid sheet.Included in this book: -- How to set up & use an organized & logical estimating system -- How to read plans & specs -- Why a site visit is mandatory -- How to assess accessibility & job difficulty -- How soil haracteristics can affect your estimate -- The best ways to evaluate subsurface conditions -- Figuring your overhead -- How to get the information you need from contour maps -- When you have to undercut -- Dealing with irregular regions and odd areas -- Factors for estimating swell and shrinkage -- Balancing the job: spoil & borrow -- Calculating machine owning & operating costs -- The two common methods of estimating earthwork quantities

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developed by the faculty of University of Florida Construction Department & used as an introductory estimating course in conjunction with Walker's Building Estimator's Reference Book, this text guides the reader through a proven method of quantity surveying & estimating. This standardized method allows several estimators to work on the same project without confusion or loss of time & lets one estimator take over an unfinished estimate & understand what has been completed. The text reviews construction contracts, insurance & bonds. It discusses geometric shapes & conversion factors, & valuable tables aid the user in determining material quantities. It explains preparation of plans for survey, how to read plans & locate sections, & how to convert inches to decimals of a foot. It provides the reader with a method of estimating quantities & costs of concrete, formwork, reinforcing steel, masonry, earthwork, & carpentry. For residential construction.

Download or read book Estimating for Building Civil Engineering Work written by John Williams and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It deals in a practical and reasonable way with many of the estimating problems which can arise where building and civil engineering works are carried out and to include comprehensive estimating data within the guidelines of good practice. The early part of the book has been completely rewritten to contain chapters useful to students and practitioners alike for the development of the estimating process resulting in the presentation of a tender for construction works. The second and major part of the book contains estimating data fully updated for the major elements in building and civil engineering work, including a new chapter on piling, and a wealth of constants for practical use in estimating. The estimating examples are based on the current edition of the Standard Method of Measurement for Building Works (SMM7). The comprehensive information on basic principles of estimating found in 'Spence Geddes' are still as valid today as the first edition. In this edition the prevailing rates of labour and costs of materials are taken whenever possible as a round figure. Readers will appreciate in the construction industry that prices are continually changing, rise and fall, and that worked examples should therefore be used as a guide to method of calculation substituting in any specific case the current rates applicable to it. In the case of plant output dramatic increases have been experienced in productivity over recent years and again estimators with their own records should substitute values appropriate to their work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the theoretical background as well as best practice examples of estimating in heavy construction. The examples stem from practitioners in international large-scale construction projects. As distinct from other publications on estimating, this book presents specific numbers and costs are calculated precisely. In this way the book helps to avoid errors in the estimating of construction projects like roads, bridges, tunnels, and foundations.
