Estimator's Equipment Installation Man-Hour Manual (Estimator's Man-Hour Library) 3rd Edition

Very useful and informative

I used to write the good features first, but this book has huge bad things.Downs, has not Air Cooler Heat Exchenger (an equipment present at any plant), there are not a pincture or graphic of the considered equipment (today manufacture companies have huge differences for the same equipment, and is not known what he taked into account), is nor clear when he use short tons and metric tons, tables are really hard to read in kindle (is not right adapted to ebook), expensive (the price is really extrange, whit a lower price could it does more money).Up, there are not many books with this information.

The standard for estimating, a must have. After all these years, one might think the price would be a little lower though.

Good reference but avoid the Tanks section. That section is just too brief for something as customized as a storage tank.

Fine informative book. Unfortunately most of the info and data I already had or knew. I will pass it down the line to the new guys. This is not the author's fault, there is a lot of data in here.

Estimating is a not a guessing game. This manual gives some good basic information as a starting point for an estimate and/or a check in carrying out many jobs.As always you must make allowances for local conditions & situations as the book clearly tells you.
