    TLDR: Labor cost estimation in construction involves calculating the cost per unit of measurement for each activity, such as cost per square meter, by factoring in various expenses such as daily labor cost, productivity, accommodation, transportation, visas, and medical insurance.
    00:00 💡 Estimating labor costs in construction involves calculating the cost per unit of measurement for each activity, such as cost per square meter, by dividing labor cost per day by productivity per day.
    02:22 🏗 Labor cost estimation in construction involves hiring labor on a daily basis or as company employees, with different payment structures, and is calculated by dividing total labor cost per day by productivity per day to determine cost per square meter for installation of tiles.
    04:56 🏗 Labor cost estimation in construction involves calculating the daily cost of labor, considering monthly salaries, food, accommodation expenses, and additional costs for catering services.
    08:00 🏗 Labor cost in construction includes catering, accommodation, and transportation, with a monthly cost of $210 per laborer for food, accommodation cost divided by the number of laborers, and a transportation cost of 174 dirhams per month per laborer.
    11:22 💰 Labor cost estimation in construction includes transportation, visas, and medical insurance, with the company incurring a cost of 250 dirhams per month for each laborer's visa and an assumed cost of 800 dirhams per year for medical insurance.
    14:17 💡 Labor cost estimation in construction involves factoring in annual paid leave and gathering information in a table to calculate the total cost of labor per month.
    17:13 💡 Hiring labor as employees ensures consistent productivity and is a better approach in the long run, and labor cost estimation in construction is calculated by dividing the cost per day by the number of working hours per day to get the cost per hour.
    19:43 🏗 Understand the difference between hiring labor and using your own, and factor that into your cost estimation for construction.

    Dear Ahmed Adil
    You know that every engineer is not working with EPC contractor. There are engineers who are working with engineering consultants where there work is differnt than that of on construction site. So always please when you give a lecture on a particular topic, tell both the scenarios of EPC and Consultant for that work under discussion. For example, how consultant calculates its cost for either design works only or construction supervision or the both. Plz include consultant too in your lectures because the scenarios is different there for each work.
    Thanks

    Just came across your channel; appreciate the work you doing. It's very difficult coming across QS channels, been looking for months now.
    I might add also that there's also the risk of not having those guys on hired available on the day you require them, maybe because they are occupied by another job.
    So the benefit of having your own labour directly employed with the company is knowing they readily available & so long they are kept productive, you not losing money.

    • @CEPQS
      @CEPQS  2 роки тому

      In the first few lectures the separate sheets are provided - manpower daily costs then productivity sheet - then material sheet. You will find below or above the videos. At the end of the course you will find the full priced sheet. But the idea is that you need to do it yourself in order to practice. Please contact me at info@costengpro.com

    hi Thanks. how to compute labor cost for ms plate. is it in kgs or by pc.?

    • @CEPQS
      @CEPQS  2 роки тому +1

      Hello and thank you for the question. Well it depends on how you calculate the productivity ! For example how many kgs they can install per day ?? Or is it easier to say how many pieces they can fix per day ??? So the conclusion both ways can work if you know the productivity per either options 😉. Hope I answered the question

    • @CEPQS
      @CEPQS  2 роки тому +1

      If you are using a POMI BOQ for pricing, there will be a full subsection in the general requirements for site administration 😊. You can calculate all the supervision charges and allow for them there. If you don’t have an item for that, then calculate all the supervision charges separately and distribute this amount all over the project 👍
