One of the essential skills one must develop to succeed in the construction business is estimating. There are several factors that go into winning contracts at a buildable and profitable value, but the primary factor is an estimate that is well thought out and executed. Estimating is a combination of cost accounting, engineering skills, and the art of visualizing how things are built. With this in mind, the book will focus on the fundamentals and key processes that give an estimator the ability to dissect a project into quantities, work components, schedules, risks, etc. that allow an estimator to provide management with a competitive and buildable cost evaluation. This book-by a construction professional-focuses on estimating for the submittal of a firm or hard money bid on design-bid-build projects. Whether you're an engineering student, estimator, architect, professional engineer or construction professional, there are key fundamentals and processes presented that can be beneficial to you.
