2. Construction estimating software - Wikipedia

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

   Construction cost estimating software is computer software designed for contractors to estimate construction costs for a specific project. 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.

3. Composite lumber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composite_lumber

   Composite deck boards are sold in either grooved or solid sided versions. The grooved composite board is fastened with hidden deck fasteners or clips, while the solid board is typically face-screwed. Most composite deck board manufacturers produce lengths of 12, 16, or 20 feet (3.7, 4.9, or 6.1 m), 5 + 1 ⁄ 2 by 3 ⁄ 4 inch (140 mm × 19 mm).

4. Composite construction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composite_construction

   A composite steel deck combines the tensile strength of steel with the compressive strength of concrete to improve design efficiency and reduce the material necessary to cover a given area. Additionally, composite steel decks supported by composite steel joists can span greater distances between supporting elements and have reduced live load ...

5. Composite material - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composite_material

   Composite materials are also becoming more common in the realm of orthopedic surgery, [42] and it is the most common hockey stick material. Carbon composite is a key material in today's launch vehicles and heat shields for the re-entry phase of spacecraft. It is widely used in solar panel substrates, antenna reflectors and yokes of spacecraft.

6. 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 ...

7. PVC decking - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PVC_decking

   The 100% PVC makeup of the board makes it costlier than the wood powder/plastic mix used in composite decking. This cost means that PVC will be a more expensive investment up front, although manufacturers claim that the long life and low maintenance requirements of the deck make it an economical decision in the long run.
