5 Questions
Which type of cost estimating enables estimators to apply cost data from one building to a different building type, as long as the design and performance criteria are similar?
Unit Cost System
During which phase of the design process is it helpful to employ cost information on the major elements of each building subsystem?
Schematic Design
Which type of cost estimating enables a more precise selection of components and systems during the design development phase?
Component cost system
What type of cost is helpful to compare between different conceptual solutions in the schematic design phase?
Square foot cost
Which type of cost estimating allows for cost comparisons between different structural framing systems, such as steel and concrete?
Building Subsystem
Test your knowledge on different types of cost estimating methods, including the Unit Cost System (Programming). Learn how to calculate costs per square foot based on previous experience and apply this data to different building types. Explore cost variations between different functional spaces, such as wet laboratories versus other square footage.
