Estimating Building Construction

All of our building estimating courses prepare students to work as estimators in a specific area of construction. The courses are hands-on, with students performing takeoffs from actual building plans.

Our five day Estimating Commercial Buildings course fully prepares students to work as estimators for contractors bidding institutional or commercial building projects. Students attending this course learn to accurately take-off and summarize work quantities from commercial drawings. Students learn to apply the correct costs for both labor and materials and assemble a complete estimate. Students will leave this course having prepared an accurate estimate for a complete commercial project.

We also offer individual courses on Estimating Concrete Costs, and Estimaing Structural Costs. Students at all of these courses will learn to accomplish detail takeoffs for their particular trade.
