CEE 492 RS Means –Introduction –Exercise ICE MC2 –Installation –Introduction and Overview Outline

Introduction to RS Means RS Means is a division of Reed Business Information. It provides cost information to the construction industry so contractors in the industry can provide accurate estimates and projections for their project costs. It has become a data standard for government work in terms of pricing, and is widely used by the industry as a whole. RS Means is accessible online, via CD-Rom, or in book form, and it also integrated in a variety of cost estimating software packages to allow for fast and reliable estimating. Cost information is updated annually These national-average costs can be adjusted to over 900 locations in the United States and Canada using the Location Factors provided.

RS Means Contains S.F. and per unit cost data

Definitions: –Daily Output: typical number of units a crew will install in a 8-hour day –Labor-hours: total number of labor-hours required to install one unit of work Crew = 1 person Daily output = 8 units How many labor-hours? Crew = 3 people Daily output= 8 units How many labor-hours? RS Means

Attached is a figure from R.S. Means estimating manual. This figure shows line item for a typical page from the unit price cost data book. The next slide shows the crew and equipment used to perform the work. Ⓒ

Crews are referenced later in R.S. Means RS Means

RS Means Exercise Have to excavate 31,200 C.Y. (Bank Measure) in three working weeks using a crawler mounted hydraulic excavator and load it onto trucks –How much would this cost?

RS Means Exercise Attached is a figure from R.S. Means estimating manual. The top part of the figure shows line item for a typical page from the unit price cost data book. The bottom part shows the crew and equipment used to perform the work. If the daily production for line 300 is lowered to 925 C.Y., find the man-hours per unit and bare costs for labor and equipment Ⓒ
