RSMeans Cost Data
RSMeans Integration
RSMeans cost data is an indispensible tool. HD estimating software now includes all of the industry databases, over 78,000 individual items and more than 5,800 assembilies. Today, with the constant flow of new construction methods and materials, it’s difficult to find the time to look at and evaluate all the different construction cost possibilities. Because labor and material costs keep changing, last year’s cost information is not a reliable basis for today’s estimate or budget.
RSMeans provides city cost indexes, productivity rates, crew composition and contractor’s overhead and profit rates. The data is collected from all facets of the industry, and organized in a format that is instantly accessible to you right from within HD. From the preliminary budget to the detailed unit price estimate, you’ll find RSMeans data useful for all phases of construction cost determination.
