Features: This book is one of the practical manuals for the six key personnel in construction project execution. It primarily introduces the basic knowledge that a civil engineering estimator should possess in construction project execution, as well as the fundamental methods that a civil engineering estimator should master when preparing construction budgets. Based on the National Unified Basic Construction Project Quota (GJD-101-1995), the book is organized in chapters according to the relevant knowledge a civil engineering estimator should have, the general provisions in the quota, the work content stipulated by the quota, and the rules for calculating project quantities. It provides practical knowledge for preparing civil engineering budgets in the order of these elements.
Following the general content of civil engineering sub-projects, the book separately introduces earth and rock excavation engineering, pile foundation engineering, scaffolding engineering, masonry engineering, reinforced concrete engineering, component transportation and installation engineering, door and window and wooden structure engineering, floor and ceiling engineering, roof insulation, heat insulation, and waterproofing engineering, decoration engineering, acid-resistant and corrosion-proof engineering, metal component fabrication engineering, and the additional labor and machinery quotas for buildings with excessive heights. It also focuses on the key civil engineering budget knowledge and quantity calculation methods that should be mastered in the vertical transportation quota for construction projects.
To emphasize practicality, the book includes a separate chapter on engineering budget preparation examples for reference by civil engineering estimators. The content is easy to understand, lucid, and highly practical, making it suitable as a reference book or textbook for civil engineering estimators in construction project execution training and job preparation.
