t
bricks after adding time for laying common bond pattern is hf .

thf
Substitute 460 hrs for .
Ch  460  22
= $10120

Compute the cost of material required for the work.


Cmc  CB  CM  Cwt

Here, the cost of material required for the work is Cmc , the cost of bricks required for the work is
CB , the cost of mortar required for the work is CM and the cost of wall ties required for the work

is Cwt .

Substitute $25055.28 for CB , $2679 for CM and $124.27 for Cwt .


Cmc  25055.28  2679  124.27
= $27858.55

Compute the cost of labor required for the work.


CL  Clb  Ch

Here, the cost of labor required for the work is CL , the cost of laying bricks by helper is Ch and
the cost of laying bricks by mason is Clb .

Substitute $20329 for Clb and $10120 for Ch .


CL  20329  10120
= $30449
Compute the cost of equipment required for the work.
CE  Cmm  Crcs

Here, the cost of equipment required for the work is CE , the cost of mortar mixer required for the
work is Cmm and the rental cost of scaffolding is Crcs .

Substitute $2223 for Cmm and $1800 for Crcs .


CE  2223  1800
= $4023

Compute the total cost of material, labor and equipment required for the work.
CMLE  Cmc  CL  CE

Here, the total cost of material, labor and equipment required for the work is CMLE , the cost of
material required for the work is Cmc , the cost of labor required for the work is CL and the cost of
equipment required for the work is CE .

Substitute $27858.55 for Cmc , $30449 for CL and $4023 for CE .


CMLE  27858.55  30449  4023
= $62330.55

$62,330.55
Therefore, the total cost of material, labor and equipment required for the work is .
Compute the cost of material, labor and equipment for 1000 bricks.
c pb  (CMLE / Tb ) 1000
c
Here, the cost of material, labor and equipment for 1000 bricks is pb , the total cost of material,
labor and equipment required for the work is CMLE and total number of bricks required for the
construction of walls of the building without adding waste is Tb .

Substitute $62330.55 for CMLE and 38,990 for Tb .


c pb  (62330.55 / 38990) 1000
= $1599

Therefore, the cost of material, labor and equipment for 1000 bricks is $1599 .
