DR. Nabil Dmaidi Type of Steel n Designated by the letter “A” followed by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) designation number. The principal types of structural steel include: – A36 carbon structural steel – A572 high-strength low-alloy structural steel – A588 corrosion-resistant high-strength low-alloy structural steel.

DR. Nabil Dmaidi Estimating Tips n Nominally taken off and priced by weight n Group for take off by: – Grade of steel – Type of section or member – Method of tied connection – location n Maintain consistent sequence of take off. Common: – Columns and detail – Beams and detail (floor by floor) – Bracing and flooring

DR. Nabil Dmaidi Pricing n Depends on where material is purchased. – Mill price apply to large orders. – Warehouse price apply to small orders from local supplier. n Prices are as of time of delivery. Need escalation clauses to be clearly set forth. n Price is made up a base plus extras.
