The absence of a reliable and industry structured pricing manual
for large and medium scale mechanical and electrical services
projects was the motivation for creating this publication. In the
past decade or so, building services installations have become more
extensive and complex. In many construction projects the total
value of building services can be up to 40% of the project total
value.
With the development of more sophisticated building control,
monitoring and management systems, there is an increasing awareness
of the need to obtain detailed costing of building services
installations.
The book deals in detail with water and air based mechanical
services, sanitary installations, Fire fighting equipment,
insulation and other specialist systems in addition to a
comprehensive coverage of electrical installations covering,
equipment and power distribution, cable containment, cables,
accessories, Lighting, lifts, fire detection and lighting
protection.
