    This document discusses cost estimation and quantity take-off for a proposed 4-story academic building project. It includes: 1) Estimating the total project cost using floor area and building volume methods, based on data from a similar past project. 2) Principles and measurement rules for formwork, concreting, and steel reinforcement work according to industry standards. 3) A quantity take-off for formwork, lean concrete, concrete, and reinforcement in pad footings, column bases, and ground beams based on project drawings. 4) Calculating the build-up rate per cubic meter of reinforced concrete (1:2:4 mix) for pad foundations

    SECTION 4

    CQI
    SUBMISSION DATE: 20 JULY 2022

    1. Chapter 1:

    Explain the interaction among key stakeholders throughout the project stages. You may add suitable
    figure or flow chart to make clear your explanation.

    2. Chapter 2: Preliminary Cost Estimating

    (a) Explain the differences in rules for calculating project cost estimate using Floor Area Method
    in comparison to Building Volume Method.

    (b) You are assigned with a task to estimate cost of proposed 4-storey academic office building
    project, as illustrated in Figure 1. A similar building project was constructed with total cost of
    RM 32,743,635.00, floor area of 23,034.38 m2 and volume of 68,527.26 m3. Based on the given
    figure and data, estimate the total project cost using:

    (i) Floor Area Method


    (ii) Building Volume Method

    3. Chapter 3 – Quantity Measurement

    (a) Based on your understanding and accordance to the principles of measurement stated in the
    Standard Method of Measurement of Building Works (SMM2), explain with sketches, the
    principles and rules of measurement for:

    (i) formwork
    (ii) concreting work
    (ii) steel reinforcement work

    (b) Based on the given figures, perform taking off to determine the quantity of the following
    items:

    (i) Formwork for pad footing, column stump and ground beam.
    (ii) Lean concrete for pad footing and ground beam
    (iii) Concrete for pad footing, column stump and ground beam
    (iv) Reinforcement bars in pad footing, column stump and ground beam.
    (v) Links in column stump and stirrups in ground beam.
