BNI Electrical Costbook concentrates solely on the electrical costs of building construction. All of the unique costs of items in this field are covered -- conduit, cables, communication systems, condensers, transformers, and more. Unit prices are broken down into material and labor costs, allowing for maximum flexibility and coverage. This latest edition includes man-hour tables, as well as a newly expanded geographical index, featuring all 50 states and more than 200 cities.
From meter to duct, conduit to receptacle, this detailed reference book provides extensive coverage of all electrical costs used in building construction.
BNI Electrical Costbook has thousands of current, reliable electrical costs at your fingertips so you can estimate quickly and accurately.
Geographic Cost Modifiers allow you to tailor your estimates to a specific area of the country.
This costbook is the first place to turn, whether you're preparing a preliminary estimate, evaluating a subcontractor's bid, or submitting a formal budget proposal. It puts at your fingertips accurate and up-to-date material and labor costs for thousands of cost items, based on the latest national averages and standard labor productivity rates. What's more, the book includes detailed regional cost modifiers for adjusting your estimate to your local conditions. It features:
- 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 calcuated 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.
The construction estimating information in BNI Electrical Costbook is divided into two main sections: Costbook Pages and Man-Hour Tables. Each section is organized according to the 16 divisions of the MASTERFORMAT. In addition, there are extensive Supporting Construction Reference tables, Geographic Costs Modifiers, Square Foot tables and a detailed Index.
Sample pages with graphic explanations are included before the Costbook pages and Man-Hour tables.
