This course provides the fundamentals of construction estimating. Students apply traditional estimating material takeoff procedures, analyze the concepts of unit pricing and productivity, and estimate material and labour costs utilizing traditional estimating procedures. On completion of this course, successful students are able to interpret the information provided on an architectural drawing set and, from that information, generate a material takeoff and a material and labour cost estimate. This course is only available in the Fall Semester. Prerequisite: ARET 1200 and ARET 1300 or permission from the department chair. Note: This course is part of a limited enrolment program.
