Construction Estimation Systems – CON 1053 © 2014 LAMBTON COLLEGE IN TORONTO Project Small Residential Building INSTRUCTOR: Sarmad Kiani CLASS: 2017W_CON 1053_3 Instructions: The Project for CON 1053 Construction Estimation Systems is designed to allow the students to demonstrate the estimating skills and techniques that are discussed in class. The students are asked to estimate a small residential building and prepare final estimate sheet in the questioned sections. Residential drawings are listed below: R.1 Foundation and Basement Plan/Main Floor Plan R.2 East Elevation / West Elevation / South Elevation / North Elevation R.3 Typical Wall Construction Detail / General Notes The drawings and estimate sheets are uploaded in the Moodle. These drawings should be used to estimate each part of the construction work and answer the following questions. Project will be delivered in the form of group assignment. Each group must submit their project and final work based on the evaluation timetable deadline. Each individual must participate in the project work and identify his/her participations in any part of estimation. Therefore each individual is accountable for his/her part and also for the whole team. Project report should include cover sheet with group team members. Project report should consist of details of calculation and also summarized estimate work sheets. Consider the required project management skills, tools and techniques when working in a group and try to make an effective project team.Construction Estimation Systems – CON 1053 © 2014 LAMBTON COLLEGE IN TORONTO Questions: 1. Determine the quantities for the foundation excavation? (Assuming that the existing grade is the same as the finished grade). 2. Determine the quantities for formwork and cast-in-place concrete required for the building? 3. Determine the quantities of floor framing required for the building? 4. Determine the quantities of wall framing required for the building? 5. Determine the quantities of Roof framing required for the building? 6. Determine the quantities of the insulation for the walls and ceiling required for the building? 7. Determine the window and door materials required for the building? 8. Determine the quantities of the drywall? 9. Determine the quantities of the interior and exterior areas to be painted?Construction Estimation Systems – CON 1053 © 2014 LAMBTON COLLEGE IN TORONTO Assessment Break down Evaluation will be based on answering the above questions by estimating each part and filling out the estimate sheet for each question. Each group must clarify the contribution of each team member in the estimation process. Project submission will be on last week before final term exam and evaluation will be finalized based on questions and answers from each group through the whole project.
