Rate Analysis
Rate Analysis
➢ Purpose of Rate Analysis
▪ To determine the current rate of per unit of an item at the specified locality
▪ To examine the viability of rates offered by contractors
▪ To calculate the quantity of materials and labour strength required for project
planning
▪ To fix up labour contract rates
➢ Procedure of a Rate Analysis – Rate per Unit of an Item
▪ Quantity of Materials and Cost
▪ Labour Costs
▪ Costs of Equipment or tools and plant
▪ Overhead or Establishment charges (including incidental)
▪ Contractors Profit

Rate Analysis
➢ Quantity of Materials and Cost
▪ The Estimator has to calculate the quantities of various materials required per
unit quantity of an item following the detailed specification and obtain unit
cost of the materials from the local market
➢ Labour Cost
▪ To calculate labour costs the number and wages of the different categories of
workers such as masons, carpenters, skilled, semi-skilled or unskilled, etc.
required for each unit of work should be known and this number is
multiplied by respective wages per day or per hour
➢ Cost of Equipment / Tools and Plant (machineries)
▪ The cost of equipment and general tools and plants that may be required for
the specified work should be obtained and considered
3
➢ General Overhead Charges
▪ General Overhead is recurring expenditure and is not dependent on the volume of work under
execution rather on the time spent. This expenditure is spread proportionately on all cumulated
work over a year span and can be fairly accurately determined
o Establishment, Rent, Taxes etc.
o Salaries of Office Staff
o Telephone, Internet, Electricity bills
o Travelling, transportation
➢ Job Overhead
▪ Expenses directly related to the Construction Work
o Wages of the personnel directly engaged in the work
o Rent or lease for temporary establishment
o Tools and Machineries
o Repairs and Depreciation for Tools and Plants
o Insurances and Compensations to Workers
o Theft or loss
o Public Relations
➢ The Overhead Cost is taken as 2.5% of Net Cost under normal circumstances but
may rise up to 5% for special cases
4
Rate Analysis
➢Water Charge
▪ For domestic use of the workers and also for construction
works the arrangement of water either by tube well or by
taking temporary water supply connection becomes
necessary. 1 – 1.5 % of Total Cost is considered as Water
Charge
➢Contractor’s Profit
▪ The contractor may be allowed a Net Profit of around 6 to
8%
▪ But a combined total of 10 % - 12.5 % is considered along
with the Overhead or Establishment charges
5
Rate Analysis
➢Factors affecting Rate Analysis
▪ Specification of the Item which indicates quality and
proportion of materials
▪ The present rate of the materials required for the Item of
Work
▪ Daily Wages of Different categories of laborer's at specified
locality
▪ The range of lead and lift of materials deposition
▪ Percentage charge for overheads
▪ The range of profit and availability of water connections

Rate Analysis of R.C.C Works
➢ For determining the Quantity of Materials for given –
▪ X m3 of Concrete (Wet Volume)
➢ Dry Volume = X´ = (X × 1.52) m3 (B.N. Dutta)
➢ Dry Volume = X´ = (X × 1.54) m3 (M. Chakraborti)
