Types of estimates |
Characteristics/Properties |
|
1. Supplementary estimate
|
While a work in progress some additional works may be thought necessary for the development of a project which was not foreseen when the original estimate was framed, the estimate when prepared to cover all such works are known as a supplementary estimate. |
|
2. Cube Rate Estimate |
This type of estimate done by multiplying the volume of the building by the unit cubic rate achieved from the previously (also recent) estimate. |
| 3. Plinth Area Estimate |
|
|
4. Revised estimate |
When sanctioned estimate is exceeded by more than 5% either from rates being found insufficient due to change in the price level or from any cause except important structural alterations. |
|
5. Preliminary estimate/Approximate estimate |
An approximate estimate made to find out the approximate cost in a short time. |
|
6. Complete estimate |
An estimate of all the items which are related to the work in addition to the main contract or the detailed estimate. |
|
7. Detailed Estimate |
Includes the quantities and cost of everything required for satisfactory completion of work. |
The correct sequence of preparing an estimate is Approximate estimate, Detailed estimate, Supplementary estimate, and Revised estimate.
