Tips on Estimating Welded Wire Fabric Reinforcing Costs from RSMeans
 | When estimating concrete reinforcing costs, ascertain that the reinforcing steel supplier has included all accessories, cutting, bending, and allowences for lapping, splicing, and waste. If no lap specifications are given, a good rule of thumb when estimating the amount of reinforcing steel is to add 10% to your quantities for lapping, splices, and waste. Also, 10% waste should be allowed for welded wire fabric. |
