Concrete Estimate

We provide comprehensive CSI Division 03 concrete estimating services for construction projects across the United States, supporting general contractors and concrete subcontractors bidding highway, public infrastructure, commercial and structural concrete work. Our estimates are built around real field execution, sequencing and constructability ensuring accurate pricing and complete scope coverage.

Our takeoffs include cast in place concrete, precast concrete, post-tensioned and pre-tensioned systems, reinforcing steel, tendons, anchorages, and stressing components, calculated strictly in accordance with structural drawings, specifications and applicable standards. Reinforcement is quantified by U.S. bar size (#3 through #11 and above), including longitudinal and transverse bars, ties, stirrups, dowels, laps, hooks, bends, and splices, reported as lengths and corresponding weights (lbs/tons). Where required, bar bending schedules (BBS) are prepared to support fabrication and ordering.

Concrete scope also includes formwork systems, shoring and reshoring, shotcrete, vapor barriers, rigid foam insulation, waterproofing membranes, termite treatment, curing methods, jointing, embeds, sleeves, and blockouts. Quantities reflect placement conditions, spacing, development lengths, cover, congestion, access, and sequencing to ensure constructible field installation.

Our estimates cover concrete work for highways, pavements, slabs on grade, suspended/ elevated slabs, walls, columns, beams, piers, pile caps, foundations, curbs, gutters, sidewalks, and paving, with clear separation between material, labor, equipment and installation activities. Pricing is developed using current market rates and realistic productivity assumptions based on site conditions and project complexity.

All quantities are delivered in itemized estimate and bid proposal ready to submit GCs or project owners with clearly defined scope, inclusions and exclusions, enabling accurate pricing, procurement, fabrication, delivery and installation while minimizing waste, shortages and field adjustments.
