Develop a programming budget estimate for a 100,000 square-foot warehouse, assuming a square-foot cost factor of $60 per square foot. The site will be about 200,000 square feet with a site development cost of $3 per square foot. Use the following allowances to prepare your budget estimate: - Owner-furnished FFE: $1,000,000 - Owner soft costs: $800,000 - Programming fees: $50,000 - Geotechnical Investigation: $390,000
H.W1 Prepare a preliminary estimate of a project with an area of 2000 m², the project consists of building a four storied residential building each story is 3.5 m in height, given the following data It may be assumed that 15% of the project area will be taken up by constructing a pool and playground, 10% of the project area is specified for roads within the project, 25 % of the project area is taken for the residential building, 40 % of the project is specified for gardens and green area where 111 trees will be planted, the remaining 10% of the project is specified for the car parking area Furthermore the exterior and interior decorations of the four storied building will be %30 of the area of the residential building area. The residential building cost rate excluding decoration (without decoration) is 25 $/m³ The decoration cost rate itself is 75$/m² The green area cost rate is based on the number of trees planted where cost rate of each tree is 55 $/tree. The cost rate of the…
The actual expenditure incurred in the construction of a single storey commercial building of plinth area 92 sq.m is found to be OMR 5240, in which 60% towards the cost of materials and the remaining is towards the cost of labour. It is now proposed to construct a similar building of the same height and specifications with a plinth area of 104 sq.m at the place where the cost of materials and labour is 15% more. Estimate approximately the cost of the proposed building? Note: This is not an assignment question and not a graded question
