This Cost Book Is an Encyclopedia of Concrete and Masonry Estimating Data

Estimating concrete and masonry costs requires specialized skills. You can't price concrete and
masonry work the same way you would price carpentry, plumbing or electrical work. The proportion of
labor expense is greater. There's more risk because there are more variables and unknowns.

Concrete and Masonry Are Unique


Both concrete and masonry are heavy. The heavier the material, the more labor and specialized
equipment needed to complete each unit of work. Experienced estimators will agree that labor is the
most difficult cost component to estimate accurately. That places concrete and masonry among the
most demanding of the construction trades to estimate precisely.

For example, the cost of laying block increases as wall height increases, even when lifting equipment is
on hand and is used to good advantage. Your crews are going to lay more block per hour when the wall
is 4 feet high than when the same wall tops out at 18 or 20 feet above ground level. It's poor practice to
assume the same labor productivity per block regardless of wall height. Masonry and concrete
estimates that don't consider changes in labor productivity as wall height increases are likely to miss
the mark by a wide margin.

How This Manual Will Help


Most concrete and masonry estimators wear several hats. Many serve as company manager, owner,
chief estimator, project manager and field superintendent. With roles like that, there may be no time to
do a detailed labor and material take-off for every job that comes along. Even a full-time estimator may
not have ample time to do a detailed take-off on every job.

If you're an experienced concrete and masonry estimator with too little time to scope out the last dime
of cost in every job, take heart. This book is for you. I've done most of the tedious work already. Use my
figures to save time, save effort, and eliminate most of the routine mistakes even seasoned estimators
make at least occasionally.

If you've had years of experience with concrete and masonry in the field, but little or no estimating
experience, this book is likely to be the best guide you'll find anywhere. Cost data in this manual was
compiled by a mathematician with almost three decades of estimating experience. Most of the cost
tables in this manual are for complete assemblies -- such as block, reinforcing, and grout -- all wrapped
up into one convenient package ready for use. Using these assembly costs will give you extra time to
estimate more jobs, run projects more effectively, and be a better manager for your growing business.

The sections that follow have detailed labor, material and equipment costs for nearly all common
concrete and masonry work. Emphasis will be on avoiding risk -- pricing pitfalls that can turn any
concrete and masonry job into a financial nightmare.

No Price Fits All Jobs


There's no single way to arrive at the correct price for concrete and masonry work. Neither is there a
single correct price for most concrete and masonry projects. But there are both good and bad ways to
estimate prices and there are good and bad prices for any proposed job. Your task as a concrete and
masonry estimator is to produce consistently good estimates on most jobs. If you're already doing that,
congratulations. If you're not, the information on the following pages will make or save you many times
the cost of this manual.

Throughout this book you'll find pictures and examples that make your work easier. It's nearly
impossible to estimate costs for work you can't visualize and don't understand.

Of course, the best price book for your company would be based on your actual cost experience -- work
done on your jobs with materials from your dealers and installed by your crews or subcontractors. Since
every contractor uses different crews, subcontractors and suppliers, every price book should be
different. And, of course, prices in the company price book should be revised regularly to reflect current
labor and material costs.

Save Estimating Effort


Having admitted that there's no substitute for developing your own price book, I'll suggest that you not
bother. Most concrete and masonry contractors don't have the time or patience to maintain current
installed prices for every type of block, brick and concrete job. Even if you did, spending hundreds of
hours a year keeping a price book current would be a waste of time.
Instead, I suggest that you let this manual serve as your company price book. Using prices in this book
(and on the National Estimator disk in the back of the book) will eliminate most of the common
estimating mistakes. If your labor costs are higher or if your crews aren't as skilled as most tradesmen,
you may have to increase the prices listed here to make a reasonable profit. And, of course, sometimes
you're going to have a job with costs that exceed what any reasonable estimate could have predicted.
This manual isn't a substitute for the exercise of good judgment. That's always your job.

National Estimator Program


The National Estimator program makes it easy to copy and paste these costs into an estimate (or bid)
and then add whatever markup you select. If you have trouble using National Estimator, call
760-438-7828 8 AM to 5 PM (Pacific), Monday through Friday. We'll be glad to help.

Once an estimate is finished in the National Estimator program and saved to disk, press Ctrl on your
keyboard and tap the letter j to convert the estimate into a proposal in Job Cost Wizard. You can't make
changes in the Job Cost Wizard screen. But it's easy to toggle back to the National Estimator program
(press Alt and tap the Tab key), make a change, and then press Ctrl-j once again.

Job Cost Wizard offers dozens of choices on what you show and don't show in written proposals. Your
bids can be long (full description for everything in the estimate) or short (only a summary of each
category). You can show or hide labor and material cost details. You can show or hide markup and
profit.

Once work begins, you'll want to monitor job expenses to be sure actual costs remain consistent with
estimated costs. If you use QuickBooks Pro to pay bills and figure payroll, let QuickBooks do the
comparisons for you. Job Cost Wizard exports the proposal to QuickBooks, where you can prepare
progress invoices and track expenses against estimates.

The National Estimator program lets you change anything in the costbook or even add your own
estimated costs. Let the National Concrete & Masonry Estimator costbook become your collection
point for all estimating and pricing information. Anything you add to the costbook shows up in red and
can be migrated to later editions of this manual when available. The National Concrete & Masonry
Estimator costbook starts out as your most useful estimating reference. What you add to that costbook
will make it even more valuable.

Material Costs in This Cost Book


Material costs for each item are listed in the column headed "Material." These are neither retail nor
wholesale prices. They are estimates of what most contractors who buy in moderate volume will pay
suppliers as of mid-2015. Discounts may be available for purchases in larger volumes.

Add Delivery Expense to the material cost for other than local delivery of reasonably large quantities.
Cost of delivery varies with the distance from source of supply, method of transportation, and quantity to
be delivered. But most material dealers absorb the delivery cost on local delivery (5 to 15 miles) of larger
quantities to good customers. Add the expense of job site delivery when it is a significant part of the
material cost.

Add Sales Tax when sales tax will be charged to the contractor buying the materials. In some states,
contractors have to collect sales tax based on the contract price. No matter what your state (or county)
requires, National Estimator can handle the task. Click Edit on the National Estimator menu bar. Then
click Tax Rates.

Waste and Coverage loss is included in the installed material cost. The cost of many materials per
unit after installation is greater than the purchase price for the same unit because of waste, shrinkage or
coverage loss during installation. For example, 1.125 concrete block are needed to create a square foot
of wall. But it's good estimating practice to order about 5% more block than required for the job. Some
block will be broken before they can be set in place (waste). A few block will be pulled off the pile for
use as wheel stops or hold-downs (shrinkage). And some block will have to be cut to fit around corners,
doors and windows (coverage loss). There is no coverage loss with concrete. But it's common to need a
little extra concrete to accommodate over-excavation.

Costs in the "Material" column of this book assume normal waste and coverage loss. Small and
irregular jobs may require a greater waste allowance. Materials priced without installation (with no labor
cost) do not include an allowance for waste and coverage except as noted.

Labor Costs
Labor costs for installing the material or doing the work described are listed in the column headed
"Labor." The labor cost per unit is the labor cost per hour multiplied by the manhours per unit shown
after the @ sign in the "Craft@Hours" column. Labor cost includes the basic wage, the employer's
contribution to welfare, pension, vacation and apprentice funds and all tax and insurance charges based
on wages.
2015 National Concrete & Masonry Estimator, All Rights Reserved Page 4 (part 2)

Supervision Expense to the general contractor is not included in the labor cost. The cost of
supervision and non-productive labor varies widely from job to job. Calculate the cost of supervision and
non-productive labor and add this to the estimate.

Payroll Taxes and Insurance are included in the labor cost. See the following section for more on the
"contractor's burden."
2015 National Concrete & Masonry Estimator, All Rights Reserved Page 5

Manhours per Unit and the Craft performing the work are listed in the "Craft@Hrs" column. To find the
units of work done per man in an 8-hour day, divide 8 by the manhours per unit. To find the units done
by a crew in an 8-hour day, multiply the units per man per 8-hour day by the number of crew members.

Manhours Include all productive labor normally associated with installing the materials described. This
will usually include tasks such as:
Unloading and storing materials, tools and equipment on site.
Moving tools and equipment from a storage area or truck on site at the beginning of the day.
Returning tools and equipment to a storage area or truck on site at the end of the day.
Normal time lost for work breaks.
Planning and discussing the work to be performed.
Normal handling, measuring, cutting and fitting.
Keeping a record of the time spent and work done.
Regular cleanup of construction debris.
Infrequent correction or repairs required because of faulty installation.

Adjust the Labor Cost to the job you are figuring when your actual hourly labor cost is known or can be
estimated. The labor costs listed in the following section will apply within a few percent on many jobs.
But labor costs may be much higher or much lower on the job you are estimating.

If the hourly wage rates listed in the following section are not accurate, divide your known or estimated
cost per hour by the listed cost per hour. The result is your adjustment for any figure in the "Labor"
column for that craft.

Adjust for Unusual Labor Productivity. Costs in the labor column are for normal conditions:
experienced craftsmen working on reasonably well-planned and managed concrete and masonry
projects with fair to good productivity. Labor estimates assume that materials are standard grade,
appropriate tools are on hand, work done by other crafts is adequate, layout and installation are
relatively uncomplicated, and working conditions don't slow progress.

Working conditions at the job site have a major effect on labor cost. Estimating experience and careful
analysis can help you predict the effect of most changes in working conditions. Obviously, no single
adjustment will apply on all jobs. But the adjustments that follow should help you produce more
accurate labor estimates. More than one condition may apply on a job.

Add 10% to 15% when working temperatures are below 40 degrees or above 95 degrees.
Deduct 10% when the work is in an open area with excellent access and good light.
Add 5% to 50% for tradesmen with below average skills. Deduct 5% to 25% for highly motivated,
highly skilled tradesmen.
Deduct 10% to 20% when an identical task is repeated many times for several days at the same site.
Add 20% to 50% on small jobs where fitting and matching of materials is required, adjacent surfaces
have to be protected and the job site is occupied during construction.
Add 25% to 50% for work done following a major flood, fire, earthquake, hurricane or tornado while
skilled tradesmen are not readily available. Material costs may also be higher after a major disaster.
Add 10% to 35% for demanding specs, rigid inspections, unreliable suppliers, a difficult owner or an
inexperienced architect.

This manual has been compiled by and for concrete and masonry estimators, not engineers. Nothing in
this manual is intended to suggest approved or recommended engineering practice. Only an engineer
licensed to practice in your community can identify materials and procedures that meet code
requirements and accepted standards for reinforcing steel, structural concrete and structural masonry.

Use an Area Modification Factor from pages 8 through 11 if your material, hourly labor or equipment
costs are unknown and can't be estimated. Here's how: Use the labor and material costs in this manual
without modification. Then add or deduct the percentages shown for labor, material and equipment.

Equipment Costs for small tools and expendable supplies (such as towels and tape) are usually
considered overhead expense and are covered by your markup. Equipment costs for larger equipment
(such as a forklift or backhoe) should be based on the rental rate for the period needed. Equipment
costs are included in sections where heavy equipment may be needed.
2015 National Concrete & Masonry Estimator, All Rights Reserved Page 5 (part 2)

Labor and Material Costs Change. These costs were compiled in the fall of 2014 and projected to
mid-2015 by adding a small percentage. This projection will be accurate for some materials and
inaccurate for others. No one can predict material price changes accurately.

How Accurate Are These Figures? As accurate as possible considering that the estimator who wrote
this book doesn't know your subcontractors or material suppliers, hasn't seen the plans or
specifications, doesn't know what building code applies or where the job is, had to project material
costs at least six months into the future, and had no record of how much work you crews can handle.
2015 National Concrete & Masonry Estimator, All Rights Reserved Page 6

You wouldn't bid a job under those conditions. And I don't claim that all construction is done at these
prices.

Estimating Is an Art, not a science. On many jobs the range between high and low bid will be 20% or
more. There's room for legitimate disagreement on what the correct costs are, even when complete
plans and specifications are available, the date and site are established, and labor and material costs
are identical for all bidders.

No cost fits all jobs. Good estimates are custom made for a particular project and a single contractor
through judgment, analysis and experience.

This cost book is not a substitute for judgment, analysis and sound estimating practice. It's an aid in
developing an informed opinion of cost. If you're using this book as your sole cost authority for contract
bids, you're reading more into these pages than the author intends.

Use These Figures to compile preliminary estimates, to check your costs and subcontract bids and
when no actual costs are available. This book will reduce the chance of error or omission on bid
estimates, speed "ball park" estimates, and be a good guide when there's no time to get a quote.

Where Do These Figures Come From? From the same sources all professional estimators use:
material suppliers, material price services, analysis of plans, specifications, estimates and completed
project costs, and both published and unpublished cost studies compiled by both private and
government agencies.

Craftsman Will Answer Your Questions about any part of this cost book and explain how to apply
these costs. Free telephone assistance is available from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. Pacific time Monday
through Friday except holidays. Phone 760-438-7828. Support personnel at Craftsman don't accept
collect calls and won't estimate the job for you. But if you need clarification on something in this
manual, help is available.

Labor Costs and Crews


Throughout this manual you'll see a column headed Craft@Hrs. Letters and numbers in this column
show our estimates of:

Who will do the work (the craft code)


An @ symbol, which means "at"
How long the work will take (manhours).

For example, at the top of page 23 you'll find estimates for installing common brick. The Craft@Hrs
column under 6'-0" high wall and opposite "Cost per square foot" shows:

B9@.272

That means we estimate the installation time for crew B9 at .232 manhours per square foot of wall.
That's the same as 23.2 manhours per 100 square feet.

The Craft Codes table below defines each of the craft codes used in this book. Notice that crew B9 is
composed of one bricklayer and one bricklayer's helper. To install 100 square feet of common brick in a
6'-0" high wall would require 23.2 manhours (11.6 hours for a crew of two).

Notice also in the table below that the cost per manhour for crew B9 is listed as $31.96. That's the
average for a bricklayer (listed at $36.70 per hour on page 7) and a helper (listed at $27.22 per hour).
Add $36.70 and $27.22 to get $63.92. Divide by 2 to get $31.96, the average cost per manhour for crew
B9.

Costs in the labor column of this book are the product of the installation time (in manhours) multiplied
by the cost per manhour. For example, on page 23 the labor cost listed for a 6'-0" high wall is $8.69 per
square foot. That's the installed time (.272 manhours) multiplied by $31.96, the average cost per
manhour for crew B9.

Hourly Labor Costs

Components of Hourly Labor Costs


The labor costs shown in Column 6 were used to compute the manhour costs for crews on page 6 and
the figures in the "Labor" column.

It's important that you understand what's included in the figures in each of the six columns above. Here's
an explanation:

Column 1, the base wage per hour, is the craftsman's hourly wage. These figures are representative of
what many contractors will be paying craftsmen working on concrete and masonry jobs in 2015.

Column 2, taxable fringe benefits, includes vacation pay, sick leave and other taxable benefits. These
fringe benefits average 5.15% of the base wage for many construction contractors. This benefit is in
addition to the base wage.

Column 3, insurance and employer taxes in percent, shows the insurance and tax rate for construction
trades. The cost of insurance in this column includes workers' compensation and contractor's casualty
and liability coverage. Insurance rates vary widely from state to state and depend on a contractor's loss
experience. Note that taxes and insurance increase the hourly labor cost by 30 to 35% for most trades.
There is no legal way to avoid these costs.

Column 4, insurance and employer taxes in dollars, shows the hourly cost of taxes and insurance for
each construction trade. Insurance and taxes are paid on the costs in both columns 1 and 2.

Column 5, non-taxable fringe benefits, includes employer paid non-taxable benefits such as medical
coverage and tax-deferred pension and profit sharing plans. These fringe benefits average 4.55% of the
base wage for many construction contractors. The employer pays no taxes or insurance on these
benefits.

Column 6, the total hourly cost in dollars, is the sum of columns 1, 2, 4, and 5.

These hourly labor costs will apply within a few percent on many jobs. But wage rates may be much
higher or lower in the area where you do business. We recommend using your actual labor cost rather
than national averages. That's easy with the National Estimator program. When copying and pasting
any cost to your estimate, adjust the assumed hourly labor cost to your actual cost. You need do this
only once for each trade. And you can make this adjustment at any time. Any change you make is
applied to that trade throughout the estimate.

Area Modification Factors


Construction costs are higher in some cities than in other cities. Add or deduct the percentage shown
on the following pages to adapt the costs in this book to your job site. Adjust your estimated total
project cost by the percentage shown for the appropriate city in this table to find your total estimated
cost. Where 0% is shown it means no modification is required.

These percentages were compiled by comparing the construction cost of buildings in nearly 700
communities throughout the U.S. and Canada. Because these percentages are based on completed
project costs, they consider all construction cost variables, including labor, equipment and material
cost, labor productivity, climate, job conditions and markup.

Modification factors are listed alphabetically by state. Areas within each state are listed by the first
three digits of the postal zip code. For convenience, one representative city is identified in each zip code
or range of zip codes.

The percentages are composites of many costs and will not necessarily be accurate when estimating
the cost of any particular part of a building. But when used to modify costs for an entire structure, they
should improve the accuracy of your estimates.

Equipment Rental Rates Costs are for equipment in good condition but exclude accessories.
Includes the costs of damage waiver (about 10% of the rental cost) insurance, fuel, and oil. Add the cost
of an equipment operator, pickup, return to yard, and repairs if necessary. Delivery and pickup within 30
miles of the rental yard are usually offered at an additional cost of one day's rent. A rental "day" is
assumed to be one 8-hour shift and begins when the equipment leaves the rental yard. A "week" is 40
hours in five consecutive days. A "month" is 176 hours in 30 consecutive days.

Running bond

Running bond with one-third lap

Standard brick, running or stretcher bond, no headers, 3/8" joint, single wythe (6.55 Brick/SF)
Typical costs for standard brick walls, laid up in common or running bond with 3/8" horizontal and
vertical joints. These costs include the bricks, mortar, typical ladder reinforcing, wall ties and normal
waste, but no structural steel members, flashings or stirrups. Foundations are not included. See wall
foundation costs in the section Concrete Spread Footings. "Wythe" means the quantity of bricks in the
thickness of the wall. Labor costs increase with increases in wall height. Equipment costs include
scaffolding starting at 7' and a boomlift with a 30' reach starting at 13'. Equipment rental costs are based
on the production rate of an 8-man crew.

Work the following examples to gain familiarity with this type of data.

Example 1: Determine the cost of a solid brick wall 420' long and 12' tall using standard brick, laid up
with a running bond with 3/8" mortar joints.
Solution:
Material = 420' x $44.00/LF = $18,480.00
Labor = 420' x $82.55 /LF = $34,671.00
Equipment = 420' x $1.20 = $504.00
Total Cost = $53,655.00

Example 2: Now determine the cost of the wall, assuming that there are three 3' x 7' door openings and
four 4' x 5' window openings in the wall.

Solution: The total gross wall area, without the openings is


420' x 12' = 5,040 SF
The door openings area is:
3 Ea x 3' x 7' = 63 SF
The window openings area is:
4 Ea x 4' x 5' = 80 SF
So, the net area of the wall containing brick is:
5,040 SF - 63 SF - 80 SF = 4,897 SF
Referring to the SF data on page 14,
Material = 4,897 SF x $3.67/SF = $17,972.00
Labor = 4,897 SF x $6.89/SF = $33,740.33
Equipment = 4,897 SF x $0.10/SF = $489.70
Total Cost = $52,202.00
* Some contractors do not subtract the labor costs for openings, since it often takes as much labor to
locate and square up the opening as it takes to lay brick straight through the opening.

Common bond with a full header every fifth course

Standard brick, common or American bond, header every 5th course, 3/8" joint, single wythe
(7.86 Brick/SF) Typical costs for standard brick walls (3-3/4" wide x 2-1/4" high x 8" long), laid up in
the given bond with 3/8" horizontal and vertical joints. These costs include the bricks, mortar, typical
ladder reinforcing, wall ties and normal waste, but no backing wall, structural steel members, flashings
or stirrups. Foundations are not included. "Wythe" means the quantity of bricks in the thickness of the
wall. Labor costs increase with increases in wall height. Equipment costs include scaffolding starting at
7' and a boomlift with a 30' reach starting at 13'. Equipment rental costs are based on the production
rate of an 8-man crew.

English bond

English, English cross, or Dutch bond, full header every other course, 3/8" joint, single wythe
(9.83 Brick/SF) Typical costs for standard brick walls (3-3/4" wide x 2-1/4" high x 8" long), laid up in
the given bond with 3/8" horizontal and vertical joints. These costs include the bricks, mortar, typical
ladder reinforcing, wall ties and normal waste, but no backing wall, structural steel members, flashings
or stirrups. Foundations are not included. See wall foundation costs in the section Concrete Spread
Footings. "Wythe" means the quantity of bricks in the thickness of the wall. Labor costs increase with
increases in wall height. Equipment costs include scaffolding starting at 7' and a boomlift with a 30'
reach starting at 13'. Equipment rental costs are based on the production rate of an 8-man crew.

Standard brick, 12" wall, common bond, 3/8" joint, triple wythe (15.28 brick/sf) Typical costs for
standard brick walls (3-3/4" wide x 2-1/4" high x 8" long), laid up in the given bond with 3/8" horizontal
and vertical joints. These costs include the bricks, mortar, typical ladder reinforcing, wall ties and
normal waste, but no backing wall, structural steel members, flashings or stirrups. Foundations are not
included. See wall foundation costs in the section Concrete Spread Footings. The wall thickness shown
is the nominal size based on using the type bricks described. "Wythe" means the quantity of bricks in
the thickness of the wall. Labor costs increase with increases in wall height. Equipment costs include
scaffolding starting at 7' and a boomlift with a 30' reach starting at 13'. Equipment rental costs are based
on the production rate of an 8-man crew.

Jumbo brick (3-1/2" wide x 3" high x 11-1/2" long), running bond, single wythe (mission, solid)
(3.13 brick/sf) Typical costs for jumbo brick laid up in the given bond with 3/8" horizontal and vertical
joints. These costs include the bricks, mortar, typical ladder reinforcing, wall ties and normal waste, but
no backing wall, structural steel members, flashings or stirrups. Foundations are not included. See wall
foundation costs in the section Concrete Spread Footings. "Wythe" means the quantity of bricks in the
thickness of the wall. Labor costs increase with increases in wall height. Equipment costs include
scaffolding starting at 7' and a boomlift with a 30' reach starting at 13'. Equipment rental costs are based
on the production rate of an 8-man crew.

Padre brick (4" wide x 3" high x 7-1/2" long), running bond, single wythe (solid) (4.20 brick/sf)
Typical costs for padre brick laid up in the given bond with 3/8" horizontal and vertical joints. These
costs include the bricks, mortar, typical ladder reinforcing, wall ties and normal waste, but no backing
wall, structural steel members, flashings or stirrups. Foundations are not included. See wall foundation
costs in the section Concrete Spread Footings. "Wythe" means the quantity of bricks in the thickness
of the wall. Labor costs increase with increases in wall height. Equipment costs include scaffolding
starting at 7' and a boomlift with a 30' reach starting at 13'. Equipment rental costs are based on the
production rate of an 8-man crew.

Padre brick (4" wide x 3" high x 11-1/2" long), running bond, single wythe (solid) (2.80 brick/sf)
Typical costs for padre brick laid up in the given bond with 3/8" horizontal and vertical joints. These
costs include the bricks, mortar, typical ladder reinforcing, wall ties and normal waste, but no backing
wall, structural steel members, flashings or stirrups. Foundations are not included. See wall foundation
costs in the section Concrete Spread Footings. "Wythe" means the quantity of bricks in the thickness
of the wall. Labor costs increase with increases in wall height. Equipment costs include scaffolding
starting at 7' and a boomlift with a 30' reach starting at 13'. Equipment rental costs are based on the
production rate of an 8-man crew.

Brick arch

Arches with soldier courses Semicircular arches laid up with soldier courses. Typical costs for
standard brick walls, laid up in with 3/8" horizontal and vertical joints. These costs include the bricks,
mortar, typical ladder reinforcing, wall ties and normal waste, but no soffit forms, structural steel
members, flashings or stirrups. Equipment costs include scaffolding. Equipment rental costs are based
on the production rate of a single-man crew. Scaffolding costs increase with opening size, since more
scaffolding will be required. Data for the arches made up of two-courses also applies to two courses
made up of alternating soldier and rowlock courses. All brick columns are solid brick.

Contemporary fireplaces with chimney corners in line with the base of the fireplace Prices
include labor and material required to build the fire box and smoke chamber using standard brick with
3/8" joints for the structure and fire brick laid up as shiners (wide face exposed) with 1/4" joints for the
hearth (flush with floor) and fire box walls. Prices also include a steel lintel angle for support, as well as
a damper. The main structure is assumed to be laid up as a double-wythe wall 16" wider than the fire
box opening width and 8" deeper than the fire box depth, laid vertically throughout the entire structure
with no taper to the flue. All voids in the fire box and smoke chamber are filled with brick; voids in the
chimney are filled with rubble or insulation. The smoke shelf is corbeled. The fore-hearth, ash pit, face
brick on the interior wall beyond the main structure and chimney cap are not included. Equipment
includes scaffolding. The machine excavation cost for the foundation assumes that the excavator is
already on the site, performing other excavations.

Rumford fireplace

Rumford-type fireplaces with log cabin chimneys Prices include labor and material required to
build the fire box and smoke chamber using standard brick with 3/8" joints for the structure and fire brick
laid as shiners (wide face exposed) with 1/4" joints for the hearth (flush with floor) and fire box walls.
Behind the fire brick is one-wythe course of standard brick laid up as shiners. The main exterior
structure is a 1-wythe wall laid up with a running bond and is assumed to be 2' wider than the fire box
opening width and 8" deeper than the fire box depth. All voids in the structure are filled with rubble or
insulating material. The front of the fireplace is laid up with standard brick with a running bond and
extends 1' beyond each side of the fire box opening to a height of 4'-8" above the hearth. The smoke
shelf is corbeled. The lower exterior portion of the structure tapers inward to meet a 1-wythe wall laid up
with a running bond surrounding the flue liner. Prices also include a steel lintel angle for support, as well
as a damper. The fore-hearth, ash pit and chimney cap are not included. Equipment includes
scaffolding. The machine excavation cost for the foundation assumes that the excavator is already on

4" x 8" x 16" non-reinforced concrete block walls with scaffolding, boomlift, 8-man crew These
costs include regular weight concrete block with normal (8%) waste, mortar for 3/8" concave joints but
no reinforcing, grout or foundations. See wall foundation costs in the section Concrete Spread Footings.
Wall heights 6' and above include the cost of scaffold rental, erection and dismantling. Equipment costs
for walls over 10' tall also include a boomlift with a 30' reach. Rental costs are based on the production
rate of an 8-man crew. Labor is assumed to increase with wall height, vertically. Costs per square foot
(SF) of wall are measured on one face. For reinforcing costs, see the section on vertical cell grout.

Work the following example to gain familiarity with this type of data.

Example: Determine the cost of an 8" CMU wall without door or window openings that's 400' long and
16' tall. Assume using an 8-man crew with scaffolding, only.

Solution: The total gross area of the wall is: 400' x 16' = 6,400 SF
Material = 6,400 SF x $2.21/SF = $14,144.00
Labor = 6,400 SF x $4.44/SF = $28,416.00
Equipment = 6,400 SF x $0.12 = $768.00
Total Cost = $43,328.00

8" x 8" x 16" non-reinforced concrete block walls with scaffolding, 16-man crew These costs
include regular weight concrete block with normal (8%) waste, mortar for 3/8" concave joints but no
reinforcing, grout or foundations. See wall foundation costs in the section Concrete Spread Footings.
Wall heights 6' and above include the cost of scaffold rental, erection and dismantling. Rental costs are
based on the production rate of a 16-man crew. Labor costs increase with increases in wall height.
Costs per square foot (SF) of wall are measured on one face. For reinforcing costs, see the section on
vertical cell grout.

Example: Before doing this example, first work example 5 on page 122, then work it using scaffolding,
a boomlift and an 8-man crew.
Solution:
Material = 6,400 SF x $2.21/SF = $14,144.00
Labor = 6,400 SF x $3.88/SF = $24,832.00
Equipment = 6,400 SF x $0.21 = $1,280.00
Total Cost = $40,256.00

Example: Before doing this example, first work example 6 on page 128 then work it using scaffolding,
boomlift, and a 16-man crew.

Solution:
Material = 6,400 SF x $2.21/SF = $14,144.00
Labor = 6,400 SF x $3.88/SF = $24,832.00
Equipment = 6,400 SF x $0.13 = $832.00
Total Cost = $39,808.00

Example: Assuming 8% waste for the block and 15% waste for the mortar, determine the quantities of
block, mortar and sand required for the wall in Example 7. Remember that each block face is 8" x 16"
= 128 sq. in. Since there are 144 sq. inches per SF, 144/128=1.125. Therefore there are 1.125 blocks
per SF of area.

Solution: There are 1.125 regular block/ SF, so the number of blocks installed is:
6,400 SF x 1.125 blocks/ SF = 7,200 blocks
Including 8% waste, we will need:
7,200 blocks x 1.08 = 7,776 blocks

Referring to Table 4 on page 603,


we will require 0.018 bags of mortar per block, so we will require:
7,200 blocks x .018 bags/blocks = 130 bags
We'll also require .003 cubic yards of sand per block, so we'll need:
7,200 blocks x .003 CY/block = 22 cubic yards of sand.
Assuming that dry, loose sand weighs 1.2 tons/CY, we will need:
22 CY x 1.2 tons/CY = 26.4 tons

Cavity wall

8" regular block, standard brick, 8-man crew, cavity wall assemblies using scaffolding Typical
costs for smooth red clay brick and regular-weight concrete block, each one wythe wide. Both walls are
laid up with a running bond with 3/8" horizontal and vertical joints. These costs include the bricks, block,
mortar, wall ties and normal waste. Foundations and horizontal reinforcing in the block are not included.
See wall foundation costs in the section Concrete Spread Footings. "Wythe" means the quantity of
bricks in the thickness of the wall. Labor costs increase with increases in wall height. Equipment costs
include scaffolding. Equipment rental costs are based on the production rate of an 8-man crew. For
reinforcing costs, see the section on vertical cell grout.

8" regular block, standard brick, 16-man crew, cavity wall assemblies using scaffolding Typical
costs for smooth red clay brick and regular-weight concrete block, each one wythe wide. Both walls are
laid up with a running bond with 3/8" horizontal and vertical joints. These costs include the bricks, block,
mortar, wall ties and normal waste. Foundations and horizontal reinforcing in the block are not included.
See wall foundation costs in the section Concrete Spread Footings. "Wythe" means the quantity of
bricks in the thickness of the wall. Labor costs increase with increases in wall height. Equipment costs
include scaffolding. Equipment rental costs are based on the production rate of a 16-man crew. For
reinforcing costs, see the section on vertical cell grout.

8" regular block, standard brick, 8-man crew, cavity wall assemblies using scaffolding and
boomlift Typical costs for smooth red clay brick and regular-weight concrete block, each one wythe
wide. Both walls are laid up with a running bond with 3/8" horizontal and vertical joints. These costs
include the bricks, block, mortar, wall ties and normal waste. Foundations and horizontal reinforcing in
the block are not included. See wall foundation costs in the section Concrete Spread Footings. "Wythe"
means the quantity of bricks in the thickness of the wall. Labor costs increase with increases in wall
height. Equipment costs include scaffolding and a boomlift with a 30-ft reach. Equipment rental costs
are based on the production rate of an 8-man crew. For reinforcing costs, see the section on vertical cell
grout.

8" regular block, standard brick, 16-man crew, cavity walls Typical costs for smooth red clay
brick and regular-weight concrete block, each one wythe wide. Both walls are laid up with a running
bond with 3/8" horizontal and vertical joints. These costs include the bricks, block, mortar, wall ties and
normal waste. Foundations and horizontal reinforcing in the block are not included. See wall foundation
costs in the section Concrete Spread Footings. "Wythe" means the quantity of bricks in the thickness
of the wall. Labor costs increase with increases in wall height. Equipment costs include scaffolding and
a boomlift with a 30' reach. Equipment rental costs are based on the production rate of a 16-man crew.
For reinforcing costs, see the section on vertical cell grout.

Creating CMU openings

Door openings in 4" concrete block walls - opening with no lintel Wall openings for doors usually
decrease the cost of masonry material. Less regular block and less mortar will be needed. But half
block will be required at the opening jambs. The following costs reflect the saving in regular block and
the additional expense of half block. Labor cost will be about the same whether the wall has door
openings or no door openings. Recommended procedure: Calculate the cost of the wall as though there
were no openings. Then use the figures below to deduct for each door opening. These figures assume
no lintel is required over the opening. Costs for door openings with lintels follow this section.

Window openings in 4" concrete block walls - opening with no lintel Wall openings for windows
may increase or decrease the cost of masonry material. Less regular block and less mortar will be
needed. But half block and a precast sill will be required at the opening. The following costs reflect the
saving in regular block and the additional expense of half block and sill. The labor is for setting the sill.
Recommended procedure: Calculate the cost of the wall as though there were no openings. Then use
the figures below to adjust for each window opening. These figures assume no lintel is required over the
opening. Costs for window openings with lintels follow this section.

Door openings in 6" concrete block walls - opening with no lintel Wall openings for doors usually
decrease the cost of masonry material. Less regular block and less mortar will be needed. But half
block will be required at the opening jambs. The following costs reflect the saving in regular block and
the additional expense of half block. Labor cost will be about the same whether the wall has door
openings or no door openings. Recommended procedure: Calculate the cost of the wall as though there
were no openings. Then use the figures below to deduct for each door opening. These figures assume
no lintel is required over the opening. Costs for door openings with lintels follow this section.

Window openings in 12" concrete block walls - opening with no lintel Wall openings for windows
may increase or decrease the cost of masonry material. Less regular block and less mortar will be
needed, but half block installed at the opening jambs and a precast sill will be required. The following
costs reflect the saving in regular block and the additional expense of half block and sill. The labor is for
setting the sill. Recommended procedure: Calculate the cost of the wall as though there were no
openings. Then use the figures below to adjust for each window opening. These figures assume no lintel
is required over the opening. Costs for window openings with lintels follow this section.

Door openings in 6" concrete block walls - opening with lintel Wall openings for doors usually
decrease the cost of masonry material. Less regular block and less mortar will be needed. But half
block will be required at the opening jambs and a precast lintel may be required over the opening.
Reinforcing steel and grout will also be required in the lintel. The following costs reflect the saving in
regular block and the additional expense of half block, lintel, reinforcing steel and grout. Recommended
procedure: Calculate the cost of the wall as though there were no openings. Then use the figures below
to adjust for each door opening. These figures include the cost of a lintel set over the opening. See the
previous section for the cost of door openings without a lintel. Equipment cost is for grouting the lintel
with a trailer-mounted 15-CY per hour concrete pump.

Window openings in 6" concrete block walls - opening with lintel Wall openings for windows
may increase or decrease the cost of masonry material. Less regular block and less mortar will be
needed, but half block will be required at the opening jambs, as well as a precast lintel and sill.
Reinforcing steel and grout will also be required in the lintel. The following costs reflect the saving in
regular block and the additional expense of half block, the lintel and sill. The labor is for setting the sill
and lintel. Recommended procedure: Calculate the cost of the wall as though there were no openings.
Then use the figures below to adjust for each window opening. These figures assume a lintel is required
over the opening. See the previous section for the cost of window openings without a lintel. Equipment
cost is for grouting the lintel with a trailer-mounted 15-CY per hour concrete pump.

Forklift setting a precast lintel

Door openings in 8" concrete block walls - opening with lintel Wall openings for doors usually
decrease the cost of masonry material. Less regular block and less mortar will be needed. But half
block will be required at the opening jambs. Reinforcing steel and grout will also be required in the lintel.
The following costs reflect the saving in regular block and the additional expense of half block, lintel,
reinforcing steel and grout. Recommended procedure: Calculate the cost of the wall as though there
were no openings. Then use the figures below to adjust for each door opening. These figures include the
cost of a lintel set over the opening. The equipment cost is for grouting the lintel with a trailer-mounted
15-CY per hour concrete pump. The equipment cost for setting heavy lintels assumes use of a 4,000 lb.
capacity forklift.

block will be required at the opening jambs, as well as a precast lintel over the opening. Reinforcing
steel and grout will also be required in the lintel. The following costs reflect the saving in regular block
and the additional expense of half block, lintel, reinforcing steel and grout. Recommended procedure:
Calculate the cost of the wall as though there were no openings. Then use the figures below to adjust for
each door opening. These figures include the cost of a lintel set over the opening. See the previous
section for the cost of door openings without a lintel. The equipment cost is for grouting the lintel with a
trailer-mounted 15-CY per hour concrete pump. The equipment cost for setting heavy lintels assumes
use of a 4,000 lb. capacity forklift.

Window openings in 12" concrete block walls - opening with lintel Wall openings for windows
may increase or decrease the cost of masonry material. Less regular block and less mortar will be
needed, but half block will be required at the opening jambs, as well as a precast lintel and sill.
Reinforcing steel and grout will also be required in the lintel. The following costs reflect the saving in
regular block and the additional expense of half block and the lintel and sill. The labor is for setting the
sill and lintel. Recommended procedure: Calculate the cost of the wall as though there were no
openings. Then use the figures below to adjust for each window opening. These figures assume a lintel
is required over the opening. See the previous section for the cost of window openings without a lintel.
The equipment cost is for grouting the lintel with a trailer-mounted 15-CY per hour concrete pump. The
equipment cost for setting heavy lintels assumes use of a 4,000 lb. capacity forklift.

Concrete column pads Prices include the cost of labor and material required to excavate and form the
footing, as well as the installation of the reinforcing steel. Prices do not include layout. Material includes
3,000 lb. concrete dumped off the truck, Grade 60 reinforcing steel and plywood forms (3 uses).
Concrete waste when poured against the earth is assumed to be 1 additional inch of concrete at the
bottom of the pad, and 2" along the walls, and only 1 additional inch at the bottom of the pad when
poured into forms. When forms are used, the excavation is extended 18" beyond the forms. Equipment
costs are based on the use of a small tractor-loader backhoe, or other comparable excavator.
Excavation is assumed to be in medium soil. Add the cost of dowels, if required.

Continuous spread footing with foundation wall

Continuous spread footing

Concrete continuous spread footings Prices include the cost of labor and material required to
excavate and form the footing, as well as the installation of the reinforcing steel. Material includes 3,000
lb. concrete dumped off the truck, grade 60 reinforcing steel and board or plywood forms (3 uses).
Concrete waste when poured against the earth is assumed to be 1 additional inch of concrete at the
bottom of the footing, and 2" along the walls, and only 1 additional inch at the bottom of the pad when
poured into forms. When forms are used, the excavation is extended 18" beyond the forms. Excavation
costs include the cost of backfilling around the footing and stem wall. The stem wall (not included in the
concrete costs) is assumed to be 12" wide. Equipment costs are based on the use of a small
tractor-loader backhoe, or other comparable excavator. Hand excavation labor is assumed to be in
average soil. The footing depth is the distance from the top of the excavation to the bottom of the
footing. (See the illustration on p. 294.) Add the cost of dowels, if required.

Monolithic edge footing with vertical walls

Monolithic edge footing with vertical walls and edge forms

Concrete continuous thickened edge footings with vertical walls Prices include the cost of labor
and material required to excavate and form the footing as well as the installation of the reinforcing steel.
The soil is assumed to be of average density. Backfilling labor is included when the footing is fully
formed. Material includes 3,000 PSI concrete placed by chute from the truck, grade 60 reinforcing steel
supported by continuous chairs placed at 4' centers, 2 x 4 edge forms (3 uses) if poured against the
earth, and plywood forms (3 uses) if the footing is fully formed. Concrete waste when poured against the
earth is assumed to be 1 additional inch of concrete at the bottom of the footing and 2 inches along the
walls. When poured against forms, concrete waste is assumed to be 1 additional inch at the bottom of
the footing. When forms are used, the excavation is assumed to extend 18" beyond the forms. The
depth of the footing is measured from the bottom of the footing to the bottom of the overlying slab.
Equipment costs are based on the use of a small tractor-loader backhoe or comparable excavator. Hand
excavation labor is assumed to be in average soil. Add the cost of dowels, if required.

Monolithic edge footing with a 45-degree inner wall and edge form

Monolithic edge footing with 45-degree inner walls


2015 National Concrete & Masonry Estimator, All Rights Reserved Page 305

Concrete continuous thickened edge footings with one 45 degree wall and one vertical wall
Prices include the cost of labor and material required to excavate and form the footing, as well as the
installation of the reinforcing steel. The soil is considered to be of average density. Backfilling labor is
included when the footing is fully formed. Material includes 3,000 PSI concrete dumped off the truck,
grade 60 reinforcing steel supported by continuous chairs placed at 4' centers, 2 x 4 edge forms (3
uses) if poured against the earth, and plywood forms (3 uses) if the footing is fully formed. Concrete
waste when poured against the earth is assumed to be 1 additional inch of concrete at the bottom of the
footing, and 2" along the walls, and only 1 additional inch at the bottom of the footing when poured into
forms. When forms are used, the excavation is extended 18" beyond the forms. The depth of the footing
is measured from the bottom of the footing to the bottom of the overlying slab. Equipment costs are
based on the use of a small tractor-loader backhoe, or other comparable excavator. Hand excavation
labor is assumed to be in average soil. Add the cost of dowels, if required.

Concrete thickened slab footings Prices include the cost of labor and material required to excavate
the footing, as well as the installation of the reinforcing steel. Material includes 3,000 lb. concrete
placed from the chute of a truck and grade 60 reinforcing steel supported on continuous chairs set at 4'
centers. Length of the reinforcing is assumed to be the length of the footing. Concrete waste when
poured against the earth is assumed to be 1 additional inch of concrete at the bottom of the footing. The
depth of the footing is measured from the bottom of the footing to the bottom of the overlying slab.
Equipment costs are based on the use of a small tractor-loader backhoe or comparable excavator. Hand
excavation labor is assumed to be in average soil.

Building a wall formed with steel

4" concrete walls with one No. 5 bar 12" on center each way Materials include reinforcing steel,
form material, including bracing, and concrete. Material and labor costs are based on forming both sides
of the wall. Concrete for walls up to 5' are dumped from the truck; higher walls are pumped using pump
mix concrete. Labor prices include installing reinforcing steel, forms, including stripping and concrete
placement. Equipment costs are based on a crew of 8. Equipment costs include scaffolding starting at
6' high and a boomlift for walls over 12' high. Labor costs increase with increases in wall height. Costs
are per square foot or linear foot of wall measured on one side.

4" concrete walls with 1 No. 6 bar 8" on center each way Materials include reinforcing steel, form
material, including bracing, and concrete. Material and labor costs are based on forming both sides of
the wall. Concrete for walls up to 5' are dumped from the truck; higher walls are pumped with pump mix
concrete. Labor prices include installing reinforcing steel, forms, including stripping and concrete
placement. Equipment costs are based on a crew of 8. Equipment costs include scaffolding starting at
6' high and a boomlift for walls over 12' high. Labor costs increase with increases in wall height. Costs
are per square foot or linear foot of wall measured on one side.

6" concrete walls with one No. 5 bar 8" on center each way Materials include reinforcing steel,
form material, including bracing, and concrete. Material and labor costs are based on forming both sides
of the wall. Concrete for walls up to 5' are dumped from the truck; higher walls are pumped with pump
mix concrete. Labor prices include installing reinforcing steel, forms, including stripping and concrete
placement. Equipment costs are based on a crew of 8. Equipment costs include scaffolding starting at
6' high and a boomlift for walls over 12' high. Labor costs increase with increases in wall height. Costs
are per square foot or linear foot of wall measured on one side.

6" concrete walls with one No. 6 bar 8" on center each way Materials include reinforcing steel,
form material, including bracing, and concrete. Material and labor costs are based on forming both sides
of the wall. Concrete for walls up to 5' are dumped from the truck; higher walls are pumped with pump
mix concrete. Labor prices include installing reinforcing steel, forms, including stripping and concrete
placement. Equipment costs are based on a crew of 8. Equipment costs include scaffolding starting at
6' high and a boomlift for walls over 12' high. Labor costs increase with increases in wall height. Costs
are per square foot or linear foot of wall measured on one side.

8" concrete walls with two mats of No. 5 bars at 8" on center each way Materials include
reinforcing steel, form material including bracing and concrete. Material and labor costs are based on
forming both sides of the wall. Concrete for walls up to 5' are dumped from the truck; higher walls are
pumped with pump mix concrete. Labor prices include installing reinforcing steel, forms, including
stripping, and concrete placement. Equipment costs are based on a crew of 8. Equipment costs include
scaffolding starting at 6' high, and a boomlift for walls over 12' high. Labor costs increase with increases
in wall height. Costs are per square foot or linear foot of wall measured on one side.

8" concrete walls with two mats of No. 6 bars at 8" on center each way Materials include
reinforcing steel, form material, including bracing, and concrete. Material and labor costs are based on
forming both sides of the wall. Concrete for walls up to 5' are dumped from the truck; higher walls are
pumped with pump mix concrete. Labor prices include installing reinforcing steel and forms, including
stripping and concrete placement. Equipment costs are based on a crew of 8. Equipment costs include
scaffolding starting at 6' high, and a boomlift for walls over 12' high. Labor costs increase with increases
in wall height. Costs are per square foot or linear foot of wall measured on one side.

10" concrete walls with two mats of No. 5 bars at 8" on center each way Materials include
reinforcing steel, form material, bracing, and concrete. Material and labor costs are based on forming
both sides of the wall. Concrete for walls up to 5' are dumped from the truck; higher walls are pumped
with pump mix concrete. Labor prices include installing reinforcing steel, forms, including stripping, and
concrete placement. Equipment costs are based on a crew of 8. Equipment costs include scaffolding
starting at 6' high and a boomlift for walls over 12' high. Labor costs increase with increases in wall
height. Costs are per square foot or linear foot of wall measured on one side.

10" concrete walls with two mats of No. 6 bars at 8" on center each way Materials include
reinforcing steel, form material, bracing and concrete. Material and labor costs are based on forming
both sides of the wall. Concrete for walls up to 5' are dumped from the truck; higher walls are pumped
with pump mix concrete. Labor prices include installing reinforcing steel, forms, form stripping and
concrete placement. Equipment costs are based on a crew of 8. Equipment costs include scaffolding
starting at 6' high and a boomlift for walls over 12' high. Labor costs increase with increases in wall
height. Costs are per square foot or linear foot of wall measured on one side.

12" concrete walls with two mats of No. 5 bars at 12" on center each way Materials include
reinforcing steel, form material, bracing and concrete. Material and labor costs are based on forming
both sides of the wall. Concrete for walls up to 5' are dumped from the truck; higher walls are pumped
with pump mix concrete. Labor prices include installing reinforcing steel, forms, form stripping and
concrete placement. Equipment costs are based on a crew of 8. Equipment costs include scaffolding
starting at 6' high and a boomlift for walls over 12' high. Labor costs increase with increases in wall
height. Costs are per square foot or linear foot of wall measured on one side.

12" concrete walls with two mats of No. 6 bars at 12" on center each way Materials include
reinforcing steel, form material, bracing and concrete. Material and labor costs are based on forming
both sides of the wall. Concrete for walls up to 5' are dumped from the truck; higher walls are pumped
with pump mix concrete. Labor prices include installing reinforcing steel, forms, form stripping and
concrete placement. Equipment costs are based on a crew of 8. Equipment costs include scaffolding
starting at 6' high and a boomlift for walls over 12' high. Labor costs increase with increases in wall
height. Costs are per square foot or linear foot of wall measured on one side.

12" concrete walls with one mat of No. 5 bars at 12" on center each way and one mat of No. 6
bars at 12" on center each way Materials include reinforcing steel, form material, bracing and
concrete. Material and labor costs are based on forming both sides of the wall. Concrete for walls up to
5' are dumped from the truck; higher walls are pumped with pump mix concrete. Labor prices include
installing reinforcing steel, forms, form stripping and concrete placement. Equipment costs are based on
a crew of 8. Equipment costs include scaffolding starting at 6' high and a boomlift for walls over 12' high.
Labor costs increase with increases in wall height. Costs are per square foot or linear foot of wall
measured on one side.

Pan slab forms

Pan slabs Prices include the cost of erecting joist and pan forms, setting adjustable steel shores,
placing concrete, trowel finish and stripping forms. All dimension lumber is Douglas fir or equal strength.
Concrete is 3,000 P.S.I. regular mix if dumped by crane and bucket and 3,000 P.S.I. pump mix if
pumped. Use these figures for estimating the portion of a slab that is over the pan forms and joists
between the pans. Bridging joists, special headers, dropped beams and reinforcing steel are not
included. Equipment includes a 60-ton crawler crane if concrete is bucket-dumped or a 28-meter boom
truck with operator if concrete is pumped. Pans forms are assumed to be rented.

Crane and boom

Two-way joist or waffle slabs Includes joists, stringers and ply form supporting the domes, pan
forms, adjustable steel shores, placing concrete, trowel finishing and stripping forms. All dimension
lumber is Douglas fir or equal strength. Concrete is 3,000 P.S.I. regular mix if dumped by crane and
bucket and 3,000 P.S.I. pump mix if concrete is pumped. Prices apply for areas over the pan forms and
joists between the pans. Dropped beams and reinforcing steel are not included. Equipment includes a
60-ton crawler crane if concrete is bucket-dumped or a 28-meter boom truck with operator if concrete is
pumped. Pans are assumed to be rented.
