Special construction estimates
Division 13 estimating for pre-engineered metal buildings, pools, fabricated rooms, shelters and other special construction.
Division 13 covers work that doesn't fit anywhere else: pre-engineered metal buildings, swimming pools, fabricated rooms and specialty structures. We price these from the drawings and manufacturer requirements with clear scope boundaries.
For pre-engineered buildings we separate the building package from foundations, erection and accessories so you can compare manufacturer quotes.
