Conceptual Cost Estimating Manual

This updated edition of this estimating manual gives contractors, engineers and managers two quick and inexpensive methods for estimating realistic design and construction costs of chemical/petrochemical plants, refineries and similar industrial facilities. One method, with an accuracy range of +/- 30 per cent, is suitable for determining plant feasibility in the early planning/evaluating stages; another method produces an estimate of total plant costs with +/- 10 per cent.
