Features: In China, engineering cost estimation encompasses both the meaning of "cost" and "price." In practice, it has long been understood as "engineering preliminary budget." With the gradual improvement of China's market economy system, the price aspect of engineering cost estimation has become increasingly prominent. Moreover, engineering cost estimation should not be limited to the preliminary budget stage but should extend forward to cost forecasting and planning stages and backward to the completion and acceptance stage. As a result, a textbook that adapts to the new meaning of engineering cost estimation has emerged. This book inherits the accumulated knowledge of previous construction cost disciplines, integrates current mainstream theories of engineering cost estimation, incorporates project management theory and construction cost theory, aligns with the actual conditions of China's engineering investment management and construction cost reform, and promotes the international alignment of China's construction cost discipline. It serves as an excellent textbook for supporting China's rapidly developing economy.
