Tips on Estimating Manufactured Masonry Costs from RSMeans
When estimating quantities for masonry walls, do not deduct areas less than two square feet in area. They will more than likely use cut whole block and should be configured as such. One commonly overlooked item in masonry estimating is an allowance for bracing walls - until the structural system is tied into the masonry wall systems, the walls can be blown over relatively easily. Also remember to include miscellaneous items in your masonry estimate; they tend to get overlooked. |
