The emphasis here is placed on several perspectives of building cost estimation, ranging from an overview of estimating building costs such as types of estimating and bidding procedures to a more detailed point of viewsuch as quantity take-off and pricing for various Construction Specification Institute (CSI) divisions, and discussions on overhead costs, taxes, and insurance.
