Welcome to Civil Engineer Seraj!
In this video, “How to Prepare Building Estimate – Part 1”, you’ll learn the basic steps and methods of preparing a building estimate from scratch. This session is designed for civil engineering students, site engineers, and construction professionals who want to understand the core process of estimating the total cost of a building project.
We’ll cover essential topics such as:
✅ Understanding types of estimates (Preliminary, Detailed, Revised)
✅ Reading architectural and structural drawings for estimation
✅ Identifying items of work like excavation, foundation, brickwork, concrete, plastering, etc.
✅ Calculating quantities of materials and labour
✅ Introduction to measurement sheets and abstract sheets
✅ Basics of rate analysis and preparing a cost summary
By the end of this video, you’ll gain a clear understanding of how to start a building estimate manually or in Excel, and you’ll be ready for the next part where we’ll take a real project example and prepare a detailed estimate step-by-step.
📘 Don’t forget to watch Part 2 for practical application with calculations and tips used in real construction projects.
