  2. Construction estimating software - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Construction_estimating...

    A cost estimator will typically use estimating software to estimate their bid price for a project, which will ultimately become part of a resulting construction contract. Some architects, engineers, construction managers, and others may also use cost estimating software to prepare cost estimates for purposes other than bidding such as budgeting ...

    It is low-cost steel, with slightly higher wear resistance compared to 420J. AUS-8 (8A) is comparable to 440B with a carbon content close to 0.75%. [7] It is often used instead of 440C. [7] SOG knives uses AUS-8 extensively. AUS-10 (10A) is comparable to 440C with a carbon content close to 1.10%. [7] It is slightly tougher than 440C. CPM SxxV ...

    The glass square is then scored across the diagonal with a steel or tungsten carbide glass-cutting wheel to determine where the square will break, and pressure is then applied gradually across the opposite diagonal until the square breaks. This technique provides two usable knife edges, one on each of the two resulting triangles.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_beam

    The difference between cellular beam and castellated beam is the visual characteristic. [3] A cellular beam has round openings (circular pattern) while the castellated beam has hexagonal openings (hexagonal pattern), both of which are achieved by a cutting and welding process. [4] Cellular beams are usually made of structural steel, but can ...

  7. Cost estimate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_estimate

    A cost estimate is the approximation of the cost of a program, project, or operation. The cost estimate is the product of the cost estimating process. The cost estimate has a single total value and may have identifiable component values. A problem with a cost overrun can be avoided with a credible, reliable, and accurate cost estimate. A cost ...

    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 ...
