A cost index is the ratio of the actual price in a time period compared to that in a selected base period (a defined point in time or the average price in a certain year), multiplied by 100. Raw materials, products and energy prices, labor and construction costs change at different rates, and plant construction cost indexes are actually a ...
A Allocation of costs is the transfer of costs from one cost item to one or more other cost items. Allowance - a value in an estimate to cover the cost of known but not yet fully defined work. As-sold estimate - the estimate which matches the agreed items and price for the project scope. B Basis of estimate (BOE) - a document which describes the scope basis, pricing basis, methods ...
Compression molding, transfer molding, injection molding, forging, and foam molding have high equipment and tooling cost. [1] Lower cost processes are machining, extruding, rotational molding, blow molding, thermoforming, and casting. [1] A summary of each process and its cost is displayed in figure 1.
According to the PMBOK (7th edition) by the Project Management Institute (PMI), Cost variance (CV) is a "The amount of budget deficit or surplus at a given point in time, expressed as the difference between the earned value and the actual cost." [19] Cost variance compares the estimated cost of a deliverable with the actual cost. [20]
The American Public Works Association publication, Special Report #62, describes the use and value of facility condition rating systems in Chapter 3.6. Within the US Federal Government, the "condition index" (CI) is a general measure of the constructed asset's condition at a specific point in time. [2]
A surface plate is a solid, flat plate used as the main horizontal reference plane for precision inspection, marking out (layout), and tooling setup. [1] The surface plate is often used as the baseline for all measurements to a workpiece, therefore one primary surface is finished extremely flat with tolerances below 11.5 μm or 0.0115 mm per ...

The Moore family firm, the Moore Special Tool Company, independently invented the jig borer (contemporaneously with its Swiss invention), and Moore's monograph is a seminal classic of the principles of machine tool design and construction that yield the highest possible accuracy and precision in machine tools (second only to that of ...
