 A. Micro Project Proposal

Title of Micro Project:- Prepare Approximate estimate of School, Auditorium

hall, Hostel, Hospital

1.0 Brief Introduction: The approximate estimate is done in order to find out an
approximate cost in very shorttime before starting the project. The estimation is made
before selecting the finalspecification and design of the project. This method is also
known as preliminary or roughestimate.

1.1 Purpose of approximate estimate:

1. To evaluate the cost of a project in short time.
2. To evaluate the difference between several options.
3. To check the final cost of the project that is calculated by detailed estimation.

2.0 Aim of the Micro Project:

Feasibility Investigation.
• To Save Time and Money.
• To Investigate Benefit and Comparison of Cost with Utility.
• To Make Planning Adjustments.
• Obtain Administrative Approval.
• For Insurance and Tax Schedule.

3.0 Intended Course Outcomes:

1.Select the modes of measurements for different items of works.
2.Prepare approximate estimate of a civil engineering works.
3.Prepare detailed estimate of a civil engineering works.
4.Justify the rate for given items of work using rate analysis techniques.
5.Use relevant software for estimating the quantities and cost of items of works.

4.0 Literature Review

Review: Approximate estimate of commercial and Industrial buildings.

Abstract: An approximate estimate gives a basic or starting point estimate for any
project. It is very important to have an accurate estimate though approximate. An
approximate estimate helps the takers of the project to make a decision as to take up the
project or not. If the approximate estimate is too high, then the project manager would
leave the project without preparing the detailed estimate. Work with detailed surveys,
soil investigations, designs and drawings of a project start only when the approximate
estimate is low. And when it is found that the detailed estimate is much higher than the
approximate estimate then the project may be cancelled. This would result in loss of the
entire labor, time, and expenses.In conclusion, it is important for government or public
bodies or even private owners to know the approximate estimate of the intended
project for approval to undertake the project

1.0 Rational: In the construction of any civil structure, specifications of the civil work are the
significant parameters in deciding the cost of the project. In construction, it is often required to
use the local material for which the rates are varying in greater extent across the country. The
rate analysis justifies the rates to be finalized for various items of works based on local market
survey for budget provision. Therefore there emerges the need of a discipline to suggest a
specific scientific technique to determine the quantities and cost of the materials along with its
justification. Thus, this course provides the necessary knowledge and skills in developing the
competency in the areas mentioned above in professional manner. Today being the era of
technology, a provision has also been made to use the various software’s for more accuracy
and speedy determination of quantities.

2.0 Course Outcomes Addressed :-

1.Select the modes of measurements for different items of works.
2.Prepare approximate estimate of a civil engineering works.
3.Prepare detailed estimate of a civil engineering works.
4.Justify the rate for given items of work using rate analysis techniques.
5.Use relevant software for estimating the quantities and cost of items of works.

6.0 Outputs of the Micro Project:-

➢ Methods of Approximate Estimate:

A. Plinth Area Method:

This estimation is done by selecting the price of 1 square meter area of a building. It ismainly
adopted for calculating the cost of following buildings:

❖ Office Buildings.
❖ Residential Buildings.
❖ School Buildings.
❖ Apartment/Flat Buildings.
❖ Hospitals.

This method is considered as the best method for calculating the cost of new buildings.
In case of multi-storeyed buildings, the following assumptions are to be considered for
the estimation.
1. For 1 square meter area, the cost of all the floors with basement and roof are in equal costs.
2. The cost of the basement is 60% of the floor.
3. The cost of the roof is 40% of the floors.

B. Cubic Meter Method:-

This method gives more exact result comparatively than the square meter method.
1. For 1 meter cube area the costs of all floors are equal in costs.
2. The cost of the basement is 60% of the cost of different floors.

The volume of the floor is determined as,

Volume = Area x Height of one floor

The height of one floor is found out by the following guidelines:

➢ Ground Floor:
The height of ground floor is calculated from the top of the footing tothe middle of the
parapet.
➢ First Floor:
The height of the first floor is calculated from the ground rooftop to themiddle of the
parapet.
➢ Other Floors:
The heights of other floors are calculated from floor to floor.Besides these methods,
there are some other approximate methods such as1. Cost comparison method.2. Unit rate
method.3. Approximate quantities with bill method.4. Bay method.5. The cost of materials
and labour method.

B. Typical Bay Method

This method is useful for application to framed structures consisting of a number of

similar bays, as for example, industrial buildings. A typical interior bay (between two
successive columns) is selected and its total cost worked out.

Then, the approximate cost of building = Number of bays in the building x cost of one bay.

Suitable correction factors may have to be used to take into account the dissimilarities inend-
bay (and in different floors, if applied to multi storey construction).

C. Approximate Quantity Method Cost Estimate

In approximate quantity method cost estimate, Total wall length of the structure is measured
and this length is multiplied by the rate per running meter which gives the cost of
the building. Rate per running meter is calculated separately for foundation
and superstructure.

In case of foundation, the rate per running meter is decided by considering quantities such as
excavation cost, brickwork cost up to plinth. While in case of superstructure quantitieslike
brickwork for the wall, wood works, floor finishing etc. are considered for decidingrate per
running meter.
 D. The Service Unit Method

Buildings are constructed to serve a specific purpose. For example hospitals are designed
to accommodate certain number of beds. Each bed is then considered a service unit. Hotels
are designed to accommodate certain number of guest rooms. Each guest room is considered
a service unit. Same applies to offices, residential houses etc. Whenever a building
is constructed the Engineer or the architect keeps the record of the place, actualcost, number
of service units, and the year of construction. From this record, it is possible to work out the
cost per service unit. This cost is then adjusted to account for inflation, and peculiarities
of the project under consideration. Then the adjusted cost per service unit is simply
multiplied by the number of service units in the proposed project to get an approximate cost
estimate.

7.0Actual Procedure followed

1. Estimate for School building:-

1) The cost of construction of school building is 2.50 crores for a capacity of 600students and
area of construction is 1600 m^2. Prepare approximate estimate of newly proposed school
building for 1500 students with the area of 5000 m^2. Use Plinth Area method

Solution:

Rate of Plinth Area of existing school building = 25000000÷1600

= 15625Rs/m^2
Then,
The approximate cost of newly proposed school building Plinth
= Total plinth Area of proposed building X Cost per area of similar existing building.
= 15625 X 50000 = 7.8125 crores

2) The cost of construction of school building is 4 crores for a capacity of 1200 studentsand
area of construction is 3200 m^2. Prepare approximate estimate of newly proposedschool
building for 3000 students with the area of 1000m^2. Use Plinth Area method
Solution:
Rate of Plinth Area of existing school building = 40000000÷3200

= 12500Rs/m^2
Then,
The approximate cost of newly proposed school building Plinth
= Total plinth Area of proposed building X Cost per area of similar existing building
= 12500 X 10000
= 125000000 crores

.
2. Approximate Estimate for Auditorium Hall -

1) Prepare approximate of Auditorium Hall building having Plinth Area 1500 m^2
➢ Plinth Area rate - 4000Rs per m^2
➢ Water supply and sanitary installation -5% of cost of building
➢ Electric installation - 10% of cost of building
➢ Other services - 5% of cost of building
➢ Contingencies-3% of overall cost of building
➢ Super vision charges - 8% of overall cost of building
Solution:

Cost of Auditorium Hall = plinth Area X Rate

= 1500m^2 X 4000 Rs
= 6000000
Cost of water supply and sanitation installation = (5÷100) X 6000000= 300000
Electric installation = (10÷100) X 6000000= 600000
Other services = (5÷100) X 6000000= 300000
Contingencies = (3÷100) X [60 lakh+ 3 lakh + 6 lakh + 3 lakh]
= 0.03 X 72 lakh= 216000 (2 lakh 16 thousand)
Supervision charge = (8÷100) X 72 lakh= 576000
Approximate estimate of town hall
= 72 lakh + 2 lakh 16 thousand + 5 lakh 76 thousand
= 79.92 lakh
2) Prepare approximate of Auditorium Hall building having Plinth Area 2200 m^2.
Plinth Area rate - 3500Rs per m^2
➢ Water supply and sanitary installation -3% of cost of building.
➢ Electric installation - 8% of cost of buildingOther services - 5% of cost of building.
➢ Contingencies - 2% of overall cost of building.
➢ Super vision charges - 4% of overall cost of building.
Solution:
Cost of Auditorium Hall = plinth Area X Rate
= 2200 m^2 X 3500Rs
= 7700000
Cost of water supply and sanitation installation = (3÷100) X 7700000= 231000
Electric installation = (8÷100) X 7700000= 616000
Other services = (5÷100) X 7700000= 385000
Contingencies = (2÷100) X [7700000+231000+616000 + 385000]
= 178640
Supervision charge = (4÷100) X 178640= 71456
Approximate estimate of Auditorium Hall = 8932000 +178640+ 71456
= 9182096 Lakh

3. Approximate Estimate for Hospital building

1) A hospital building of 150 beds is constructed in Talegoan the cost of construction of RS 5

crore. Find the approximate Estimate of a small hospital of 35 beds in the similar locality by
using service unit method

Solution:

Rate per service unit = (cost of construction÷ number of beds)= 50000000 ÷ 150

= Rs 333333.33/ bed

Approximate cost of newly proposed hospital of 35 beds

= Number of beds X Rate per bed

= 35 X 333333.33

= RS.11666666.662
2. A hospital building of 200 beds is constructed in Pune the cost of construction of RS
7crore. Find the approximate Estimate of a small hospital of 45 beds in the similar locality by
using service unit method

Solution:

Rate per service unit = (cost of construction= number of beds)

= 70000000 ÷ 200= Rs.350000 /bed

Approximate cost of newly proposed hospital of 35 beds

= Number of beds X Rate per bed= 45 X 350000

= Rs.15750000

4. Approximate Estimate for hostel building

1) A hostel building for 150 students is constructed in Pune the cost of construction is RS6
crore. Find the approximate estimate of a newly proposed hostel building of 250 students in
the similar locality by using service unit method

Solution:

Rate per service unit = (cost of construction number of students)

= 60000000 ÷ 150

= RS.400000

Approximate cost of newly proposed hostel building for 250 students

= Number of students X Rate per student

= 250 X 400000= RS.1000000002

2. A hostel building for 200 students is constructed in Pune the cost of construction is Rs. 8
crore. Find the approximate estimate of a newly proposed hostel building of 300 studentsin
the similar locality by using service unit method.

Solution:

Rate per service unit = (cost of construction÷ number of students)

= 80000000÷200 = 400000

Approximate cost of newly proposed hostel building for 300 students

= Number of students X Rate per student

= 300 X 400000 = RS.120000000
