Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Estimating Concrete Buildings The process of building, in the time-honored acceptation of the term, consists of the assembling of units already manufactured, and the fitting of them into their appointed places. Methods of accomplishing these things have been developed through the successive experience of generations of builders until they have crystallized into a traditional practice the cost of which may be prejudged with reasonable accuracy. Concrete construction, on the other hand, is less a process of building than it is of manufacturing. Cement, sand, stone, water and steel are brought together under conditions which produce a chemical action that fuses these elements into a whole quite different from the sum of its constituent parts. The consideration that this occurs on the spot where the unit produced is to remain as part of the finished structure, in no wise alters the essential fact that the process is one of manufacture. The traditional operations of the builder come into play mainly in the placing of subsidiary or subordinate units, and in supplying necessary fittings. The actual procedure of concrete construction is still very far from approximating standard practice. Still less has there emerged any generally accepted system for keeping track of the individual cost of the innumerable items that enter into this type of work. Hence no satisfactory basis has been supplied for making estimates in advance of the actual undertaking. Estimates are made, of course; but in the great majority of instances they are little more than the shrewd guess of one whose cost instinct has been sharpened by experience. Few are the estimators of concrete construction whose computations follow any scientific plan, or whose results are capable of analysis. Indeed, it may be said of estimators, as of poets, that they are seldom able to explain their figures once these have been allowed to cool.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The script is entitled Building Estimates and Rates Build Up .and aims at empowering Technical educators, Technical, Brigades and Community colleges students, Apprentices and individuals in the building profession with the necessary skill and knowledge. As an experienced professional in the building industry, quantity surveyor( building material estimator) and a former lecturer for technical colleges, I have realized that there is need to come up with a book that will help students, apprentices and individual builders to easily understand the subject of estimating and rates build up to enable them to apply the skill whenever they have projects. Currently, individual builders, apprentices, and students find it difficult to correctly and accurately estimate the quantities of materials required for proposed projects .Pricing is also a difficult task for most of them as they do not have an idea of how to build up rates. Presently our brigades and technical colleges do not have a relevant book to deal with Estimates. Building Estimates and Rates build up provides a solution to such a problem. The book provides a solution in that it brings together pure mathematics and practical estimation, to avoid a situation whereby students end up failing to realize that the same formulas that are used in Mathematics (math) are applicable in the estimates. I strongly believe that the book will be able to even penetrate the international market.
