Features: This book focuses on introducing the methods of construction project cost management and the preparation of construction project budget (preliminary) estimate quotas. It includes calculation formulas, methods of quantity calculation, illustrations, and examples. The content is comprehensive, rich in data, concise, and practical, making it a highly technical and specialized practical reference book. The book is divided into four parts.
Part 1: Preparation of cost-related documents in the early stages of project development. It briefly introduces the engineering construction process and the role of project cost, explains cost control at different stages of construction; the preparation of project proposals and feasibility study reports; economic analysis, comparison, and optimization of design plans; methods of preparing investment estimates for construction projects; as well as the procedures for construction project bidding and the preparation of bidding documents.
Part 2: Systematically introduces the preparation methods of construction project budget (preliminary) estimate quotas. It provides a detailed description of the preparation methods for general industrial and civil building installation project budgets, along with supplementary data such as calculation coefficients for the impact of factors like hydrology, earthquakes, and meteorology on project costs, and relevant reference materials.
Part 3: Comprehensively elaborates on the preparation methods of construction project budget (preliminary) estimate quotas. In addition to a general description of the preparation and use of preliminary estimate quotas, preliminary estimate indicators, and the main material consumption indicators for 10,000 yuan of construction installation work, it emphasizes the calculation formulas, methods, and reference data for preparing budget quotas for construction and installation projects, along with calculation examples.
Part 4: Compiles the methods of calculating construction project quantities. It includes illustrations, lists various simplified methods of quantity calculation, and reference data, such as simplified calculation tables for brick foundation quantities, reference tables for material consumption in various reinforced concrete structural components and metal structures, etc. It also provides analysis and calculation data for new building materials like lightweight steel keel gypsum board partitions and suspended ceilings.
