IN PRACTICE
Example
Illustration: 120 m² × 80 + 2000 debris + 1000 foundation + 500 permits + 300 utilities + 0 remediation = 13400; with 15% contingency: 15410 currency units.
GOOD TO KNOW
What does the demolition cost estimate include?
Base = area × rate; subtotal = base + debris + foundation + permits + utilities + remediation; total = subtotal × (1 + contingency/100). All monetary inputs must use one currency and a consistent tax basis. Rates are illustrative, not local market prices. Base rate should exclude separately entered extras. Surface must match the contractor’s rate basis. Excludes rebuilding and land purchase; assessment and specialist quotes are needed for hazardous materials.
