Steel Erection Estimating Webinar
Course Description
Understanding how to properly identify the costs that have to be considered when pricing the installation of any type of steel structure is important in running a business efficiently. This online, self-paced webinar will provide insight in the process that an erector follows to estimate the erection of steel buildings, pipe racks, tanks, bridges and more! With the use of examples and an estimating spreadsheet, you will learn all of the cost components that are standard in every installation project from start to finish.
This course is made up of four modules and contains eight hours of video instruction, technical resources, as well as a quiz. Once the course is completed, and with a score of 70% or higher on the final quiz, a Certificate of Completion is issued to the learner.
Duration 8 hours (4 modules) | Fee $160.00 | 0.15 CEUs
The presentation will focus strictly on the process that an erector follows to identify the costs that have to be considered when pricing the installation of any type of steel structure including buildings, pipe racks, and tanks to bridges. We’ll start with the preliminary review of the tender documents, bonus and penalty clauses, identifying the effect of location, schedule, and commuting and travel costs, and all of the components that are standard on every job such as site surveys, unloading and handling, assembly, plumbing, bolting, welding, touch-up painting, fall protection, hoisting and handling equipment, consumables, field expenses, freight and site overheads. This webinar provides an understanding of what goes into effective cost estimating of structural steel erection.
After establishing the cost of a project the presentation will finish with contingencies, profit, subcontracts and taxes.
A spreadsheet will be used to following the discussion.

Registration in this course includes access to the recorded sessions for one month.
Each student will be able to download a PDF file containing the course slides which the student will be able to print and the estimating spreadsheet.
