This Courses is a Beginner Course for those students who want to choose Quantity Estimation as their Subject & Become a Professional in this Field.
The course is prepared with the intention that the learners will understand the basic of quantity Estimation .
After the Course completion the learner can try to apply these concepts practically in their Homes or near by buildings and get a Rough Estimate of the total Building cot and how much Cement bags, Sand, Coarse Aggregate & Water has been used in the structure .
We all know that an "Estimate" is a rough calculation of the quantities of various items of work,like cement , Sand , Coarse aggregate and the expenses likely to be incurred for the construction projects that one may undertake to complete successfully. Hence, the total of these probable expenses to be incurred on the work is known as the estimated cost of the work. The estimated cost of a work is actually a close approximation of its actual cost.
