The Study of Quantity Factors for Two Storey Housing Cost Elemental Estimate


At the present, in Thailand, the preliminary cost estimate was mostly prepared based on cost per square meter rate which is the low accuracy and precised method. The elemental cost estimate is considered as the higher efficient method. Due to lacking of data for this method is Thailand, this study had gathered all construction costs and quantities from twenty complete two storey houses which were constructed in bangkok. These data were used to analyze relationship of quantity factors (Q.F.) for Elemental Cost Estimate as specified by National Public Works Conference (N.P.W.C.) standard, Australia. The realtionships of Quantity Factors (Q.F.) and cost per element were tabulated for easy reading and use.
