1- INTRODUCTION TO ESTIMATION |
Cognitive level –Remember 1.
What is an Estimate? What are the types of Estimation? 2. Explain briefly detailed
and Abstract Estimate. 3. List the units of
measurements for the following items of works a. Earthwork excavation. b. Plastering in CM 1:6 c. Pointing in CM 1:6 4.
List the points to be kept in mind for opening deduction while doing
External Plastering. 5. List the points to be kept
in mind for opening deduction while doing Internal Plastering. 6.
Write a short note on, a) BOQ, b) Lead statement. |
Cognitive level –Understand 1. Write the procedure to be
adopted for calculating the quantities for Earthwork Excavation. 2.
Differentiate Preliminary Estimate and Item rate Estimate. |
Unit
2- SPECIFICATIONS |
Cognitive level –Remember 1. Write down the detailed
Specifications for the following a. Plastering in Cement
mortar 1:6 b. Terrazzo flooring. c. Cement concrete 1:2:4 in
foundation and Plinth. d. Distempering for internal walls. e. Pointing with cement mortar. |
Cognitive level –Understand 1. Differentiate between General specification and detailed
specification. |
Unit
3- ANALYSIS OF RATES |
Cognitive level –Remember 1. Define Analysis of rates. Explain the various steps taken into
consideration for |
preparing detailed Analysis of rates. 2. List the Type of labours
to be considered for different construction activities while doing analysis
of rates. 3. Format a typical Rate
analysis sheet for any construction work in separate heads, Materials cost,
labour cost, taxes, profit, contingencies
etc. |
Cognitive level –Understand 1.
What are the importances of preparing Rate analysis? 2. How to arrive Material
rate and labour rate. 3. Mention the basic
information requirement for Rate analysis. |

below construction activities by using present SR book. a. Plastering in Cement
mortar 1:6 b. Terrazzo flooring. c. Cement concrete 1:2:4 in
foundation and Plinth. d. Distempering for internal walls. e. Pointing with cement mortar |
Unit
4- DETAILED AND ABSTRACT ESTIMATE OF BUILDINGS |
Cognitive level –Remember |
Cognitive level –Understand 1. Explain the method of taking out the quantities
by long wall & short wall method and centre line method. |
Cognitive level –Application 1. |
Unit
5- ESTIMATION OF ROAD WORKS |
Cognitive level –Remember 1. Estimate the quantity
of earthwork for the portion of a road between chainages 0 to 10 from the
following data, lengths being measured with a standard 20m chain.
The formation level at 0
chainage is 130.0 and the road is in a rising gradient of 1 in 200. The width
of formation 9 m. and the side slopes 1 1/2 : 1 in banking and 1:1 in
cutting. The lateral slope of the ground may be assumed as level. -20m |
