This first edition of Industrial Construction Estimating Manual provides a detailed estimating method using the unit-quantity model to prepare construction estimates for process plants using computerized estimation. Most estimating methods are qualitative and are not based on historical data. The unit method uses historical and quantitative data that leads to a cost driver easily understood. The unit method is used extensively in construction estimating. This method is extended by developing the unit method and historical person-hours into the unit-quantity model.
