FORMWORK USING PERI BEAMS


Hello,

I wish to share the exercise below; it may be valuable for your future assignments.



NB: Battens/ Wood studs to plywood run in both vertical and horizontal directions. So, you can assume the size to runs in each direction to aid your material rate.



Thank you.

 Hi, This exercise has been pending with me for some time now. It is a guide on estimation for modular ceiling finishes.  The breakdown below helps to; 1. Calculate required quantities of a modular ceiling tile with grids 2. Build up your material rate for the same ceiling type Be informed that prime cost of items changes over time; it will be appropriate you adopt the prevailing market rates in your rates build-up.
