Building Installation Engineering Budget Quota
Introduction
Building installation engineering is a special type of engineering, specialization in professional engineering and undertaking the installation of various special engineering in the building structure. The budget quota for building installation engineering is an important factor for the improvement of the overall project cost and building works quality control. This paper will discuss the budget quota for building installation engineering, as well as the strategies and methods for budgeting.
Strategy
The strategy for setting the budget quota of building installation engineering should include the following elements: research and analyze the requirements of engineering project; setting the general scope of engineering installation; research the unit cost of engineering installation materials and equipment; and set a quota of preparation and maintenance cost according to the industry standard.
Materials Cost
The installation materials include building structure material, insulation materials, waterproof material, construction material, fixtures and fittings, etc. In order to ensure the quality of building structure, some special material with high quality should be used in the installation project, such as stainless steel, whose installation cost is usually higher than that of common material. Therefore, it is important to research and analyze the cost of installation materials properly and enough budgets should be set for their purchase in advance.
Equipment Cost
The cost for equipment used for building installation engineering is another important factor. It includes the cost for transportation, lifting, lifting equipment and special tools and so on. The cost of installation engineering should be worked out from the fabrication drawings, actual situation and vendor’s quotation.
Preparation & Maintenance Cost
Since installation engineering is a complex engineering, special tools and machines are necessary for its installation. The cost for preparation and maintenance should be included in the estimation and budget. Proper budgets should be set for it according to the industry standard.
Conclusion
Budgeting is a necessary part of installation engineering. The budget quota of building installation engineering should take into consideration the cost of material, equipment and preparation and maintenance and be worked out based on the actual situation and industry standard. It can guarantee a successful installation as well as a good quality of construction.
