Criteria:-
The building cost is expressed in
terms of the accommodation it provides. for example:
Example 1:-
Example 2:
Cost per student for completed building:-
Types of Building Number of Student Building Cost (RM)
Building A 350 300,000.00
Building B 300 250,000.00
Advantages:-
Disadvantages:-
Exercise:-
Based on given information. Calculate the cost of new Polytechnic building. The new
building is expected to accommodate 250 students.
Based on the above diagram the building length is 15.00 metre and
the width of the building is 6:00 m
Example:-

Room 2 3200
Room 1
Garage

This method is requires the measurement of the length,
width and height of the building.
into two, namely fully pitch roof and half pitch roof.
Half roof
height = T/2 Roof height = T
Building height = H
Grd Level
Half roof
height = T/2 Roof height = T
Building height = H
Grd Level
Flat Roof
Flat roofs are defined as roofs with angles of less than 15
degrees. Divided into two, namely the fully flat roofs and flat
roofs with parapet walls.
C.L + 0.6m
G.L
Building height = H
if the height of parapet wall is over than 600mm, building height is measured from the
top surface of building foundation to roof level and added with height of parapet wall
H= building
height
Grd Level
After getting the length, width and height of building the building volume can be
obtained by multiplying the three measurements. Assume that
Assume that, based on exiting building cost per meter cubic is RM 100.00
Cost of proposed building = RM 100.00 x 33,750 meter cubic
= RM 3,375,000.00

Advantages:-
1. This method is more accurate compared with the previous method because considering
the height of building.
2. Suitable for all types of buildings.
3. Calculations are easy and faster
Disadvantages:-
1. Requires a complete drawing.
2. Estimates do not reflect the floor area
