Written with proven and easy-to-follow examples and models used over many years in teaching Trade Estimating, Principles of Trade Estimating is derived from real-world experiences in the fast paced and demanding industry of design and construction.

Principles of Trade Estimating also address the elements that are vital parts of the estimating process. Components such as: Conversion/Waste Factors, Schematics, Cost Factors, Unit & Alternate Pricing, Value Engineering, and Long-Lead Considerations are covered in detail.

This book is a must read for anyone interested in the process by which the built environment is transformed from a two-dimensional concept to a three-dimensional reality. That process begins with the work of the Trade Estimator. Principles of Trade Estimating provides you with all the answers to your estimating needs.
