CHAPTER 2
METHOD OF BUILDING ESTIMATE
Example 1. — Estimate the quantities of brickwork and plastering required in a wall 4m long,
3mhigh and 30cm thick. Calculate also the cost if the rate of brickwork is Rs. 320.00 per cu mand
of plastering is Rs. 8.50 per sq m.
Quantity of brickwork = LB x H = 4mx3 mx 30 = 3.6 cum,
Quantity of plastering (two faces) = 2x Lx H = 2x 4m x3 m= 24.sq m.
Cost of brickwork = 3.6 x 320,00 Rs, 1152.00.
Cost of plastering = 24 x 8.50 = Rs. 204.00.
Total cost = 1152.00 + Rs. 204.00 = Rs. 1356.00.
Example 2. — Prepare a detailed estimate of part of a wall of a building from the given plan
and section and general specifications (Figs. 2-1 and 2-2).
GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS :
(1) Foundation concrete shall be of lime concrete.
(2) Foundation and plinth shall be of Ist class brickwork in lime mortar.
(3) Damp Proof Course — 2.5 mm c.c. |: 1% : 3 with water proofing compound.
(4) Superstructure — Ist class brickwork in lime mortar.
(5) Wall finishing — Inside wall [2 mm Cement plastered I : 6 and white washed 3 coats.
Outside wall 12 mm cement plastered I : 6 including 10 cm below ground level and finished
with two coats of colour wash over one coat of white washing.
RATES : Assume local current rates.
Note: — Fig. 2-1 and Fig. 22 are plan and cross-section of the wall with standard modular
brick and with traditional brick respectively. For simplicity only a portion of a wall has been taken
and licnce there are no footings at the ends.ESTIMATING OF WALL

METHODS OF BUILDING ESTIMATE
The dimensions, length, breadth and height or depth are to be taken out from the drawing —
plan, elevation and section. From the study of the drawings, the building is to be imagined and
pictured in the mind and the dimensions are to be taken out correctly. Thereis no hard and fast rule
for finding out dimensions from the drawing but the dimensions are to be taken out accurately.
‘Junctions of wall at the corners and at the meeting points of walls require special attent
For symmetrical foundation which is the usual case, earthwork in excavation in foundation,
foundation conerete, brickwork in foundation and plinth, and brickwork in superstructure may be
estimated by either of the following two methods.
METHOD I
Separate or individual wall method. — In this method, measure or find out the external length
of walle running in the longitudinal direction generally the long walls out-to-out, and the internal
lengths of walls running in the transverse direction in-to-in i.e. of cross or short walls in-to-in, and
calculate quantities multiplying the length by the breadth and the height of wall. The same rule
applies to the excavation in foundation, to concrete in foundation and to masonry. Care should be
taken to note the difference in dimensions at different height due to offset, or footings. It is
convenient to imagine plans at different level of heights as foundation trench plan, foundation
concrete plins of each footing, etc. and dealing each plan or part separately.~
30 ESTIMATING AND COSTING
[The simple methodis o take the long walls and short or cross walls separately and to find ou
the centre to centre lengths of long walls and short walls from the plan, Foreseoreen footing on
either sides, the centre line remains same for superstructure and for foundation and plinth."
For fong walls add to the centre length one breadth of wall, which
out-to-out, multiply this length by the breadth and the height and
(Long wail length out-to-out = centre to centre length
y + half breadth on one side + half breadth
on the other side = centre to centre length + one breadth).
For short or cross walls subtract (instead of adding) from the centre length one breadth of wall,
Which gives the length in-to-in, and repeat the same process as for che long walls, subtracting one
breadth instead of adding.
(Short wall length in-to-in = centre fo centre length — one breadth).
Thatis, in case of long wall add one breadth and in case of short w:
all subtiact one breadth from
the centre length to get the corresponding lengths,
zn foundation the offset of concrete on either side may be 10 em to 20 em depending on the
(hickness of concrete (usually less thgn the thickness of conerete). The offset once of brick
wall of standard bricks is 5 cm, and of traditional bricks is 5.7 em,
This method can also be worked out in a quicker way. For long walls find the length of the
foundation trench of the long wall out-to-out in the same manner ae explained above, the length of
{he foundation concrete is the same, for the length of the first footing or first step of brick wall
subtract two offsets in foundation conerete from the length of the trench or concrete: for tre eens
footing subtract from the length of Ist footingtwo offsets in footing ie.25- len oney eins
cm for traditional bricks), for the third footing subtract from the length of the 2nd footing two
olfsets i.e. 10 em (11.4 cm for traditional bricks) in this way deal the long walls up to the
cnpersiTucture. [For 25.4 em x 12.7 em x 7.6 cm (10" x 5" 314") bricks, one offset in footing - 6.35,
cm and two offsets = 12.7 em].
For short wall follow the same method but instead of subtracting, add two offsets to get the
corresponding lenyih in-to-in.
twill be noticed that by taking dimensions in this way, the long walls are gradually decreasing
in length from foundation to superstructure, while the short walls are increasing in length.
It may also be noted that the wall which is taken first is to be treated as lot
ng wall though its
length may be lesser, and the other wall be treated as short wall.
This method is simple and accurate and there is no chance of any mistake. This method may b
naried as Long wall and short wall method, or general method.METHOD OF BUILDING ESTIMATE a

‘The length of long wall centre to centre = 5.00 + 14% .30 + 4 x.30=5.30m. The length of short
wall centre to centre = 4.00 + 4 x .30 + 4 x 30 = 4.30 m.

As study of the plans and elevations (Fig. 2-5) will make it clear. The plan (i) shows the
foundation footings. The long walls and short walls may be imagined to be constructed Separately,
first the long walls and then the short walls, From the elevation (iii) and (v) it will be clear that the
length of each successive footing of long walls is reduced in length and that of the short walls each
successive footing is increased in length,
The corresponding breadth and height can be obtained from the cross-section of wall

METHOD I
. 5 hod sum-total length of,
Method. — In this method known as centre line met length of cente
eee and short, has to be found out. Find the total length of centre lines of walls, of
. d short having same type of foundations and footings and then fing th
suantities | ee multiplying the total centre length by the respective breadth and the height. In he
method, the length will remain same for excavation in foundation, for concrete in foundation, for
all footings and for superstructure (with slight difference when there are cross walls or numberof
junctions). This method is quick but requires special attention and consideration at the junction,
meeting points of partition or cross walls, etc.
For rectangular, circular polygonal (hexagonal, octagonal, etc.) buildings having no inter o,
cross walls, this method is quite simple. For buildings having cross or partition walls, for every
junction of partition or cross walls with main walls, special consideration shall have to be made to
find the correct quantity. For each junction half breadth of the respective item or footing is tobe
deducted from the total centre length. Thus in the case of a building with one partition wall or cros
wall having two junctions, for earthwork in foundation trench and foundation concrete deduct one
breadth of trench or concrete from the total centre length (half breadth for one junction and one
breadth (2 x 4 = one for two junctions). For footings, similary deduct one breadth of footing for
two junctions from the total centre length, and so on. If two walls come from opposite directions
and meet a wall at the same point, then there will be two junctions.
For building having different types of walls, each set of walls shall have to be dealt separately
Find the total centre length of all walls of one type and proceed in the same manner as. described
above. Similarly find the total centre length of walls of second type and deal this separately, andso
on.
In the case of a building having different type of walls, suppose the outer (main) walls are of
type and inter cross walls are of B type, then all A type walls shall be taken jointly first, and thenall
Btype walls shall be taken together separately. In such cases no deduction of any kind need be made
for A type walls, but when B type walls are taken, for each junction deduction of half breadth of A
type wall (main wall) shall have to be made from the total centre length of walls.
It may be noted that at corners of the building where two walls are meeting no substraction or
addition is required.
When there are number of footings, the length of the first footing is to be determined by
deducting half breadth of footing per ‘junction from the total centre line length and then the length
of the subsequent footing can be obtained simply by adding one offset of footing i.e. cm forever)
Junction to the length of the previous footing.
The examples 3(a), 4(a) and 5(a) which have been solved by method I in the previous pages.
have been solved again under examples 3(b), 4(b) and 5(b) in the following pages, by method Il0
illustrate this method. These illustrations will make this method quite clear.
Note.— Student should practice method J first and when they have become sufficica'!
acquainted with method 1, then only they should take up the method I
Example 3(b).— Estimate by centre line method the quantities of the following items of *

Total centre length of walls = AB + BC +CD + DA = 5.30 + 4.30 + 5.30 + 4.30 = 19.20 m
Fig, 2-8 represents the foundation trench plan.
If the total centre length is multiplied by
the breadth and the depth we get the quantity
of earthwork in excavation. By doing so we
take certain portion twice and leave an equal
portion but this does not affect the quantity
The quantity of excavation = ABx 90cm

noticed that the portions P,QR and S
marked with double hatch lines come twice
while the portions K,L,M,N left blank do not
come at all, but these portions being equal in
‘magnitude, we get the correct quantity.

Example 4(b).— Estimate by centre line method the quantities of the following items of atwo
roomed building Fig. 2-6 Example 4a (page 35)—
(1) Earthwork in excavation in foundation, (2) Lime concrete in foundation, (3) Ist class
brickwork in cement mortar 1:6 in foundation and plinth, (4) 2.5 em c.c. damp proof course, and
(5) Ist class brickwork in lime mortar in superstructure,
In this problem there are two junctions of the inter wall with the main wall.
2x. to. ¢. of long wall + 3 * c. toc. of short wall.
Total centre length of wal
2x 10.60 + 3 x 6,30 = 40.10 m
Fig. 2-9 represents the foundation trench plan.
Fig. 2-9
If the total centre length is multiplied by the breadth and depth, at the junction the portions A
and B shown by hatch lines in Fig. 2-9 come twice, and we get the quantity in excess by these
portions, and these excesses shall have to be deducted. The'deduction may be effected reducing the
centre length by half breadth for each junction.
Thus the quantity of earthwork in excavation —
= [Total centre length —(2 4 breadth)] x breadh x depth.
= (40.10 - 2x % x 1.10) x 1.10 x 1.00 = 39.00 x 1.10 x 1.00 = 42.90 cu m.
The same principle applies to foundation concrete, to footings, plinth wall and superstructure
wall. At every stage deduction of half breadth of the main wall at that particular level shall have to
be made per junction (i.e. one breadth for two junctions) from the total centre length, and this net
centre length after deduction shall be multiplied by the respective breadth and the height or depth to
get quantities. :
The estimate of the quantities of this Example 4(b) is as follows: —
