Estimating Screenshots from Excel

Welcome to a compilation of things that you cant read even when you squint.

Unit Cost


Assembly Cost



I had much more difficulty finding the items for the Unit cost in constrast to the Assembly cost. The Assembly required much more math, whereas the Unit required much more knowledge of the actual materials than did the Assembly. Conceptual estimating is much easier than detailed estimating because conceptual estimating is a much broader estimate while detailed estimating is attempting to find an exact price, much more accurate tan conceptual estimating.


Guess What Else? Wall Assembly

I found this super cool wall assembly photo. Nice right? The materials used include: Wall Planks, landscape fabric, gravel, hangers, and a big sand footing. Probably easy to see for yourself seeing as how it is kindly written on the picture for you.

Guess what?

I attended class today. Nice.
