Estimate of Bullding Work @y Centre Line Method Estimate of Building Work Itis essential to know the probable construction cost beforehand, called the estimated cost for building construction. IF this cost is higher than the funds available, Work is reduced, or changes are made in the specifications to reduce the cost. By it, you can know the importance of estimates for civil engineers. For making an estimate, the quantities of different work items are determined with the simple mensuration method, and these quantities help in the cost onan conhrgntarwantiadcanteie-rnedSteel Price Per Kg, Today. 12 Difference rc The process of estimation is easy, not rocket science, but you must know.

Essentially the calculation is made of length x width x Quantity ' height/depth or length x height/depth Grade oF You have to take the dimensions (length, width, height, or depth) from Concrete And drawings(plan elevation and section).

Special attention is needed at corners, wall junctions and wall meeting points. Usually, foundations are symmetrical, for which the following methods may estimate quantities of different work items such as earthwork in excavation, foundation concrete, foundation brickwork, plinth and brickwork in the superstructure, Also, Read - What is Plinth Area? - Calculation, Plinth Area Estimate Method of Building Estimate 1.

The internal length of short or cross, or partition walls generally runs in the transverse direction, By multiplying this length with the width and height of the wall, you can caleulate the quantities. With the help of these walls’ lengths, you can calculate the different work items such as excavation in the foundation, foundation concrete and masonry wall But remember, you need to take care while noting the difference in dimensions at different heights because of height offset or footing. onan conhrgntarwantiadcanteie-rnedpane. The simple way to use this method separately consider the long walls and short walls and calculate the centre-to-centre distance of each wall from the drawing. For the symmetrical footing on either side, the centerline remains the same for the superstructure and the foundation and the plinth, Also, Read - Building Estimate - Importance - Estimate of Building In Excel Estimate of Building Work By Long Wall Short Wall Method onan conhrgntarwantiadcanteie-rned= Centre to Centre length + One Width Into in length of short Wall = Centre to Centre length - One Width Usually, the long wall length decreases from Erath work in excavation to brickwork and the short wall-length increase Long well Shore Well Method From the above image onan conhrgntarwanetiadcanteie-rned ae640.15 40.15 = 6,30 meter Centre to Centre Length of Short Wall = Inner Length + Half-width of one side + Half-width of another side 5+0.15+0.15 = 5.30 meter No trem |, | Lenath | width | Height | Quantity) Description (meter) | (meter) | (meter) | (cum) | Earthwork in Excavation onan conhrgnteemanetle Longwail | 2 | 720 | 090 | 090 | 11.664m) 63) Leng shortwall | 2 | 440 | 090 | 090 | 7.128 osc Foundation 2 Concrete Leng’ Longwall | 2 | 720 | 090 | 030 | 399 ° srorwa | 2] 440 | 090 | 030 | 2376 | ‘ee 3, | Foundation Brickwork Long Wall First Footing | 2 | 690 | 060 | 030 | 2084 Me 8 6.30% second Footing | 2 | 680 | 050 | 030 | 204 Me ee 6.30% onan conhrgnteemanetle Plinth 2} 670 | 040 | 060 | a2r6 630+ Short Wall first Footing | 2 | 470 | 060 | 030 | 169 | bere ot Leng Second Footing | 2 | 480 | 050 | 030 | 1.44 oa Leng Plinth 2} 490 | 040 | 060 | 2252 0.4 2. | Superstructure Brickwork Leng Longwall | 2 | 660 | 030 | 3.20 | i672 | ‘ene 0.30 Leng Shortwall | 2] 530 | o30 | 320 | tore | ‘OE onan conhrgnteemanetCentre Line Method Centerline is another method for estimating building work, In this method, as the name indicates, the centre line length of walls, long and short, has to calculate, You have to calculate the walls'total centre line length of the same type, long {and short, using similar foundations and footings. Now multiply this centerline length by width and height to calculate the quantities of the various work item. ‘The wall length will be the same for different work items such as excavation in the foundation, foundation concrete, footings and superstructure (with a slight variation in cross walls or the number of junctions). Itis a fast method of estimation but needed special attention and consideration, at junctions. ‘This method is suitable for circular, hexagonal, octagonal, etc, shape buildings with no inner or cross walls, The buildings with inner or partition walls require special consideration to calculate the exact quantity for each cross or partition wall junction with main walls onan conhrgntarwantiadcanteie-rnedcan calculate the quantities of different work items, But when we do this, we take the cert but it doesn't affect the quantity. in part double and leave an equal part, For instance, the excavation quantity = (AB x 0.90 x 0.90 + BC x 0.90 x 0.90 + CD r 0.90 x0.90 + DAx 0.90 x 0.90) Here you can notice that the parts K, L, M and N marked with double hatch line come twice, while the segments P, Q, R and S left blank don't come at all since these parts are of equal dimension, Hence we get the correct quantity Also, Read - How to Calculate Cement, Sand and Aggregate In Concrete? onan conhrgntarwantiadcanteie-rned sareFrom the above Image Total Centre Length of Wall = AB + BC+ CD +DA = 630+ 5.30 + 6.30+5,30=23.2m onan conhrgntarwantiadcanteie-rned seTote Earthwork in Cent 232 | 090 | 090 | 1879 Excavation lengtt Bi 2, | Foundation 232 | 090 | 030 | 626 Concrete 3, | Foundation Brickwork First footing 232 | 060 | 030 | 4.176 Second 232 | 050 | 030 | 348 Footing Plinth Wall 232 | 040 | 060 | 5568 Deduct Superstructur for 4 | 232 | 030 | 030 | 2088 | openi Brickwork has to don enincieo contin anateraliahotcarveieehol‘waza, som satel Bang Wo Lang Ya Shon Ya Mas Cae La dC and Thanks!
