Today we will see how to prepare rate analysis for Reinforced Concrete (RCC) work.

First step to rate analysis is the estimation of labour, materials, equipments and
miscellaneous items for particular quantity of reinforced concrete.

The second step is to determine the component of structure for which the RCC rate
analysis is required, as the quantity of reinforcement steel varies with slabs, beams,
columns, foundation, RCC Roads etc., though the quantity of other materials like
sand, coarse aggregate and cement remain the same with the same mix design (mix
proportion) of concrete.

Labour rates for reinforcement work changes with type of structural component as
the quantity of reinforcement steel changes. The Quantity of materials like sand,
cement and coarse aggregates vary with mix design such as M15 (1:2:4), M20
(1:1.5:3), M25, M30 etc..

Here we will see the rate analysis for 1m3 of reinforced concrete.
Data required for RCC Rate Analysis:
1. Estimation of materials:
Material estimation include sand, cement, coarse aggregate and steel for a particular
mix design. Let us consider a mix design of 1:1.5:3 for our estimation practice. The
 dry volume of total materials required is considered as 1.54 times the wet volume of
concrete, due to voids present in sand and aggregates in dry stage. Therefore, for
our calculation, we will consider the total volume of materials required as 1.54 m 3
for 1 m3 of wet concrete.
a) Bags of cement required:
Volume of cement required for 1m3 of Concrete =

=0.28 m3
Then number of bags of cement (volume of one bag of cement = 0.0347 m 3)

= = 8.07 bags of cement.

b) Volume of Sand required:

Volume of sand required = = 0.42 m3 of sand.

c) Volume of Coarse Aggregate Required
Volume of Coarse Aggregate = = 0.84 m3 of coarse aggregates.
d) Estimation of Reinforced Steel:
Quantity of steel required depends on components of structure, i.e. slabs, beams,
columns, foundations, roads etc. To estimate the steel required, there are two
methods.

First method is, when we have the drawing available, we can calculate the total
weight of steel required divided by total volume of concrete for different
components. This will give us the weight of reinforcement steel per cubic meter of
concrete.

Second method is assuming the percentage of reinforcement for different

components. Following are the percentage of reinforcement steel generally required
per different components. Its values can vary from structure to structure, and can be
assumed from past experiences of similar structure.

 For slabs = 1.0 % of concrete volume.

 For Beam = 2 % concrete volume.

 For column = 2.5 % of concrete volume.

 For RCC Roads, 0.6% concrete volume.

Lets take example of RCC Column, where reinforcement required is 2.5% of concrete
volume, weight of steel required will be:

=196.25 kg.

2. Labour Requirement for 1m3 of RCC:

Labours required are presented in terms of days required by particular labour to
complete its work for the given quantity of concrete. Following are the various
labours required:

a) Mason: As per Standard Schedule of Rates and Analysis of Rates, One mason is
required for 0.37 days.

b) Labours: One Unskilled labours required for 3.5 days.

c) Water carrier: One water carrier required for 1.39 days.

d) Bar Bender: Bar bender requirement depends on weight of reinforcement. Lets

consider one bar bender required for 100 kg of steel as for 1 day.

e) Mixer Operator: One mixer operator required for 0.0714 days.

f) Vibrator Operator: One vibrator operator required for 0.0714 days.

3. Equipments and sundries:

Equipment and other charges, such as water charges, miscellaneous items, tools and
tackles etc can be assumed as some percentage of total cost of materials and
labours. Lets say it as 7.5%.

4. Contractor’s Profit:
Contractor’s profit depends on place to place, organization to organization and work
to work. It varies from 10 – 20%. For our case lets assume it as 15% of total cost of
materials, labours and equipments.

We have calculated the quantity of every item in above 1 – 3 steps. For rate analysis
of RCC, we need to multiply each quantity with their rates to get the amount for
every item of work. Rates vary from place to place and time to time. It is advisable to
assume local rates or standard rates of the place.
The sum total of all the four items above will give the rate or cost for 1m 3 of
concrete.

- Price per meter of reinforced concrete jacking pipes, reinforced concrete pipes & reinforced concrete
manhole (different diameters)

1000 MM ND NP4 Rs/ m 6500 to 9850 Jacking Pipe (2 m length with rings and gasket) Rs 20000

- Gross profit margins of the industry and of each type of reinforced concrete pipes 15 to 20%

- Utilization rate of a plant

Break even :33% Optimum average 50 to 55% Best scenario : 75-80%

- Main players in Qatar from a supply side & demand side (we will also need a view on the different
external factors that impacts the demand and a forward looking view on the demand)

- Cost structure of the industry

- A forward looking view on GRP (demand, supply)

Please note that they are mainly interested in the reinforced concrete pipes market in Qatar – in
terms in products, this should cover Reinforced Concrete Pipes (RCP), Reinforced Concrete
Jacking Pipes (RCJP), and Reinforced Concrete Manhole (RCM)
