Estimated Per-Square-Foot Cost Steel Factory Shed

  Estimated Per-Square-Foot Cost Breakdown for a 60,000 sq. ft. Steel Factory Shed: Steel Structure (Columns, Beams, Trusses) : For a standard industrial-grade steel structure, costs can range from BDT 1,000-1,500 per sq. ft. for larger structures like this. Roof and Wall Cladding : Metal sheets or PEB panels for roofing and walls cost about BDT 150-250 per sq. ft. Foundation : For a large shed with basic foundation requirements, costs may range around BDT 100-150 per sq. ft. Flooring : A reinforced concrete floor to withstand industrial use costs approximately BDT 200-300 per sq. ft. Utilities and Installation : Labor, lighting, basic electrical setup, and ventilation typically add BDT 50-100 per sq. ft. Per-Square-Foot Total Estimate: Adding these up, the per-square-foot cost is approximately: Low Range : BDT 1,500-1,700 per sq. ft. High Range : BDT 2,000-2,300 per sq. ft.

The Building consists of two major parts

The Building consists of two major parts (a) substructure (b) superstructure. All components of buildings fall under any one of these categories. Substructure: The structure below the ground level is known as the foundation or substructure. The foundation forms the base which transmits the load from the superstructure to the soil below. The foundation should be properly designed and carefully executed, both from the point of view of the stability and cost of the structure. Superstructure: The structure above the ground level is known as the superstructure. The various components constituting the superstructure are explained under. Basement: The story or floor of a building below ground level. This is not used for residential purposes. It is generally used for storage of goods, air-conditioning rooms, vehicle parking, and as a locker for banks, etc. Plinth: The portion of a structure between the surface of the surrounding ground and the surface of the floor, which is immediately above t...

According to National Building Code, buildings are classified based on occupancy and types of construction.

 According to the National Building Code, buildings are classified based on occupancy and types of construction. 1. Classification based on type of occupancy a) Group A: Residential Buildings b) Group B: Educational Buildings c) Group C: Institutional Buildings d) Group D: Assembly Buildings e) Group E: Business Buildings f) Group F: Mercantile Buildings g) Group G: Industrial Buildings h) Group H: Storage Buildings i) Group J: Hazardous Buildings Residential Buildings: These are buildings in which sleeping accommodation is provided for normal residential purposes, with or without cooking or dining or both facilities. These buildings are further subdivided into 5 groups, viz.  A-1: Lodging house  A-2: Family private dwelling; A-3:Dormitories; A-4: Flats (Apartment Houses); A-5: Hotels. Educational Buildings: All those buildings which are meant for education from a nursery to the University, are included in this group. However, the National Building Code of India recommend...

As 35% of the total building cost only goes to structural, I will break down this 35% to make you understand clearly.

  Here’s a detailed breakdown of the 35% structure allocation in the BOQ, divided by typical percentage allocations within that structure cost. This breakdown may vary depending on the building design and project requirements, but it generally aligns as follows: Item Percentage of Structure (35%) Explanation Foundation Work 10% of 35% (3.5%) Covers excavation, footings, piles, slab on grade, waterproofing, etc. Structural Framework 40% of 35% (14%) Includes columns, beams, slabs, reinforcement, concrete, bracing, etc. Walls and Partitioning 20% of 35% (7%) Masonry work for walls, load-bearing walls, internal partitions, etc. Roof Structure 15% of 35% (5.25%) Covers trusses, rafters, roof slabs, waterproofing, and drainage provisions Structural Finishes 10% of 35% (3....

How are all the items in a building divided by 100% in BOQ?

  According to the item in a building divided by 100% in the BOQ? 1. Structure = 35% 2. Brick work = 6% 3. Woodwork = 5% 4. Metal work = 2% 5. Plumbing and Sanitary = 6% 6. Electrical work = 7% 7. Plaster work = 4% 8. General Floor Tiles work = 6% 9. Toilet & Kit wall Tiles work = 3% 10. Aluminum work = 4% 11. EME (Lift Generator, Substation) =10% 12. Paintwork = 3% 13. Other civil work = 6% 14. Utility connection & Bill = 3% Total = 100%   If you like this post, please like and share it to encourage others to see it.

Eligible Deflation Limit of Civil Construction Work

  AS PER BNBC 2020 & ACI CODE  DEFLATION LIMIT  1. For Live Load = L/360 2. For (Live+Dead) Load = L/240 Here L= Span Length. BNBC 2020 of our designed model cannot exceed the given deflection limit. Let Span Length = 20' then The deflection limit given by BNBC 2020 will be – For LL= L/360 (20x12)/360= 0.67 inches For (DL+LL) = L/240 (20x12)/240= 1 inch. And now if we calculate the deflection limit given by BNBC 2020 of our designed model we get- 0.67 inch for LL & 1 inch for (DL+LL).
