Using the cost estimate template below, refer to the relevant pages of the Cordell Student Building Cost Guide to complete your cost estimate for the Kings. Remember your cost estimate should be based on the specifications itemised described in Step 1. 

Cost estimate - David and Tara King 

Excavation:

1/ Remove topsoil and set aside. (Top 100mm)

            Garage Length (m) x Garage Width (m) = 19.5 x 3.28

            Total Area x Unit rate = Subtotal cost 

             63.96 m2 x $2.56 = $163.74                                    

2/ Detailed excavation for trench footings. (0.3m x 0.4m)

            Centreline perimeter x Unit Rate = Subtotal

            44.36m x $19.20 = $851.71

Excavation total = $1015.45

Concrete:

1/ Footing Beam 0.3m x 0.4m.

            Area of Footing x Centreline perimeter = Footing beam Volume

0.12x 44.36= 5.32m3

Footing Volume x Unit Rate = Subtotal

5.32 x 234.70 = $1249.36

2/ Slab on ground 10m x 6m.

            Length x Width x Height = Volume

            10 x 6 x 0.625995 = 37.56m3

            Volume x Unit Rate = Subtotal

            37.56 x 249.37 = $9366.33

Concrete total = $10615.69

Concrete reinforcement

1/ Reinforcement to Footings

            Centreline perimeter x unit rate = Subtotal

            44.36 x 2.36 = $105.26

2/ Reinforcement to Slab

            Length x Width x Unit rate = Subtotal

            10 x 6 x $3.86 = $231.6 

Concrete reinforcement total =$336.86

Timber framing: (MGP10@ 450mm centres)     

1/ Wall framing 2400mm high.                                

            Centreline perimeter x unit rate = subtotal

            45.47m x $ 6.89= $313.29

Timber framing total =$ 313.29 

Roofing: (23 degree pitch)

1/ Roof area = Length x (Rafter Length x 2).        

            (Hint: Use Cosine Ratio)                                          

Roof Area = 19.5x3.28cos23

Roof Area = 58.88m2

Roof area x unit rate = Subtotal

58.88 x 36.52= $2150

Roofing total =$2150

Window and Door Schedule

1/ Door

820mm x 2040mm x 35mm

1200mm x 1200mm                                       

Window total =$255.38

Plasterboard         

1/ Interior Walls

Perimeter x Height = Area

            Area= (Int. Perimeter x Height) - (window + door)

                        45.2x 2.4 = 108.4891

            Area = 108.48- 3.11

            Area x unit rate = subtotal

            105.37 x 18.31 = $1929.25

Plasterboard total =$1929.25

Ceiling

            Interior Area= Int. length x Int. width

19.38 x 3.16= 61.24m2

Area x Unit rate = subtotal

61.24x 19.99 = $1224

 Ceiling total =$1224                                                             

Apply the costs of anticipated WorkCover, Environmental Protection Agency and waste management site fee costs
