Waste and Coverage loss is included in
the installed material cost. The cost of many
materials per unit after installation is greater than
the purchase price for the same unit because of
waste, shrinkage or coverage loss during installation.
For example, about 120 square feet of nominal 1" x
4" square edge boards will be needed to cover 100
square feet of floor or wall. There is no coverage loss
with plywood sheathing, but waste due to cutting and
fitting will average about 6%.
Costs in the Material column of this book assume
normal waste and coverage loss. Small and irregular jobs
may require a greater waste allowance. Materials priced
without installation (with no labor cost) do not include an
allowance for waste and coverage except as noted.

Arbitration and Mediation Fees These are administrative fees paid to the American Arbitration
Association (AAA). Rules and fees are subject to change. The AAAs web site at www.adr.org has current
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
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.
Most wood-frame residences are Group R3 and Type VB.

Cabinets, Kitchen
Kitchen cabinet costs vary widely. The prices listed in this section are for standard grade residential
cabinets. Add 65% to material costs for premium grade cabinets with solid hardwood fronts and frames,
mitered corners and solid wood drawer bodies with steel guides and ball bearings. Deduct 45% from
material costs for economy grade cabinets, laminated plastic on particleboard.
Cabinets, Rule of Thumb Cabinet cost per running foot of cabinet installed. These figures are based
on a set of mill-fabricated and assembled kitchen cabinets including a sink base cabinet, one 3-drawer
base cabinet and six door base cabinets. Per linear foot of front or back edge, whichever is longer.

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 that (1) precut materials are fastened with screws and that (2)
tariffs on imported sheet steel continue to be enforced. Labor cost includes layout, assembly, plumb and
align.

Carpentry, Piecework, Steel
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.

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.
93
Concrete Slabs
Slabs, Walks and Driveways Typical costs for reinforced concrete slabs-on-grade including fine
grading, slab base, forms, vapor barrier, wire mesh, 3,000 PSI concrete, finishing and curing. For
expanded coverage of concrete and formwork, see the National Concrete & Masonry Estimator at
http://CraftsmanSiteLicense.com. For thickened edge slabs, add the area of the thickened edge. Use
500 square feet as a minimum.

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 contractors markup. However, sections
identified as subcontract include the subcontractors markup. Heres 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).
207
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 contractors 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).

Some types of rock require casings at the well surface only. Your local health department can probably
provide information on the average well depth and subsurface conditions in the community. Note that
unforeseen subsurface conditions can increase drilling costs substantially. Most subcontractors will
estimate costs on an hourly basis.

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 1999. This home is described below under the section
Residential Rule of Thumb. These costs include the builders 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 308 to 637 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 Employers 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 183 and 283.
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 cant 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 Contractors Markup Costs in this manual do not include the general contractors markup. Costs in
sections identified as subcontract are representative of prices quoted by subcontractors and include the
subcontractors 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.
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 Contractors Markup at the bottom of this page.
Total General Contractors Markup Typical costs for commercial and industrial projects.
Indirect overhead (home office overhead) % 2.0 6.0 8.0
Direct overhead (job site overhead) % 1.4 5.9 7.3
Contingency (allowance for unknown conditions) % 2.0

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

Shores for beams and girders Using 4" x 4" wooden posts. These figures assume an average shore height of
12'0" with a 2'0" long horizontal 4" x 4" head and 2" x 6" diagonal brace (30 BF of lumber per shore) and include nails,
adjustable post clamps and accessories. For scheduling purposes estimate that a crew of 5 can lay out, fabricate
and install 30 to 35 adjustable wood shores in an 8-hour day when shores have an average height of 12'0". Quantity
and spacing of shores is dictated by the size of the beams and girders. Generally, allow one shore for each 6 LF of
beam or girder. Costs for heavy-duty shoring are listed under General Requirements, Heavy-Duty Shoring.

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.

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
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 cant 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.

tubes (Sonotube is one manufacturer) that are peeled off when the concrete has cured. Square columns are usually
formed with plywood and 2" x 4" wood braces or adjustable steel column clamps.
Heavy wall water-resistant fiber tube forms, set and aligned, based on 12' long tubes. Longer tubes will cost more

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

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.
