Foundation Cost Variation For Nine Story Residential Building In Selected Zone Of Narsingdi Distric

Abstract

The bearing farthest reaches of the soil is an important subject in the Design of Geotechnical Engineering, especially in the establishment of planning, as the intensity of any establishment is dependent on it. A structure with an incredibly delicate structure can collapse while remaining on weak and vulnerable soil with a low bearing limit. Numerous researchers have given their individual calculations based on individual diverse parameters and Impediments on various occasions in this paper are estimated has been done by based on different zone of soil condition. It is required to know the probable cost of a construction known as estimation and costing for all engineering works. If it is seen that the estimated cost is greater than the money available, then attempts are made to reduce the cost by reducing the work or by changing the Specification. In this paper, estimation and costing was done for nine story of residential building in Narsingdi district using BNBC 2020. The rates in the estimation provided for the complete work consists of the cost of materials, cost of transport, cost of labor, cost of Scaffolding, cost of tools and paints, cost of establishment and supervision and reasonable profit of contractor etc. In Bangladesh, the general practice of estimating and costing is done by manually and due to improper way of the process, several mistakes remain in costing, therefore, the proper forecasting cannot be done
