Estimates - correct answer Approximation, projection or prediction of a quantity of work
Detailed estimate of Construction Cost - correct answer forecast of construction cost prepared based
on a detailed analysis of materials and labor for all items of work, as contrasted with an estimate based
on current area, volume or similar unit costs
Bill of Materials - correct answer Used to describe the materials, sub-components needed to
manufacture a finished product
Quantity survey - correct answer term describing the detailed calculation of all components necessary
to construct a building generated by quantity of materials, labor and other parameters; a detailed
analysis and listing of all items of materials and equipment necessary to construct and complete a
project
User-unit Method - correct answer estimating method involving the determination of user or
occupants to quantify space and to establish cost (e.g. number of students, patient beds, inmates, etc.)
Area Method - correct answer estimating method involving costing and quantification using area and
multiplier/factor; commonly used to provide a rough estimate of project cost by multiplying area by cost
per unit area
Volume Method - correct answer estimating method involving a three-dimensional aspect of the
project; an extension of the area method but involves the height of the building project as height affects
cost of the project; also used when estimating small to medium project cost since it involves a standard
height and deviation may be considered minimal
Parametric Method - correct answer estimating method involving the identification of several major
factors in estimating such as architectural, structural, electrical, etc. components of the project, each
with a corresponding project cost
