Estimate the total direct cost and cost per 1,000 CMU for furnishing and laying standard-weight concrete masonry units for a rectangular building 185-ft long, 95-ft wide, and 12-ft high. The total area of the openings will be 725 square feet.
The CMU will be 8-in by 8-in by 16-in and mortar joints will be 3/8-in thick. Two rows of bond beams are required, reinforced with two #5 reinforcing steel bars. The manufacturer’s literature shows 0.33 cubic feet of concrete is required to fill each linear foot of the U-shaped CMU that will be used for the bond beams.
Use the unit costs for material, labor, and equipment shown in Example 15.3.
