This document discusses square foot cost estimating methods. It describes approaching used for square foot estimates, which involve tabulating costs per square foot rather than by service unit. Cost data can come from external sources or be developed internally. Estimates provide accuracy within 15% typically. The document then examines two common sources for square foot cost data - one based on actual project reports, the other on modeled typical projects. It demonstrates calculating estimated costs for sample projects using both data sources, and describes making adjustments for location, time, and other project-specific factors.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

Square Foot Estimate - Approach
The method of developing a square foot estimate is similar to
that used for a conceptual estimate except more information
is required and costs are tabulated per square foot, not by
service unit.
The estimate is still used primarily by the owner for
budgeting purposes and still conducted during the
conceptual stage of the project.
Cost data can be taken from outside data sources or can be
developed by the designer, owner, or construction company.
Adjustments are made the same as in the rough order of
magnitude (ROM) estimate.
These estimates take slightly longer than a ROM estimate
and should provide an accuracy in the plus or minus 15%
range.
2
Square Foot Estimate - Data
Companies that have information for ROM estimates should
also have the data needed for square foot estimates.
If information is not available in-house, Means has two
square foot data books, each published utilizing different
source material.
The first source:
The Assemblies Cost Data Book. (Figure 5-7)
Bases its costs on actual completed projects as
reported by owners, designers, and contractors.
This is the same source of information used in the
conceptual estimate, only broken down on a
square foot basis. It uses the same ¼, median, and
¾ quality distinction and it is based on 11,500
projects.

Square Foot Estimate - Data
Advantages of the Assemblies Cost Data Book:
1. The reported costs are derived from actual projects that have
been built around the country.
2. The costs have been localized to the national average.
3. These are true costs reflecting actual contractor costs
including overhead and profit.
Disadvantage of the Assemblies Cost Data Book:
Specific project conditions are not known, thereby making it
difficult to know exactly what the square foot cost includes.
4
Square Foot Estimate - Data
The second source
The Square Foot Data Book. (Figures 5-8, 5-9)
Based on stereotypical models that have been
created for different project types.
This allows Means to determine the quantities of
materials and labor required to build each project at
the sizes tabulated.
With the quantities held constant, each year the unit
prices are adjusted to reflect current costs for labor
and materials.

Square Foot Estimate - Data
Advantages of the Square Foot Data book:
1. The modeled data is more specific.
2. It identifies the costs associated with different combinations
of structural and exterior closures.
3. It allows specific pricing for common project additives such as
basements, and adjustment for story height and building
perimeter.
4. The perimeter adjustment factor allows the estimator to
properly account for the added cost associated with
unusually shaped buildings.
5. This data book also provides a detailed breakout of the
model for the project. The detail breakout allows the
estimator to make small adjustments for items in the model
by deleting or adding line items as necessary.
6
Square Foot Estimate - Data
Using the Reported Square Foot Data:
What is the cost of a 15,000 sq. ft. library? Assume
median quality and 1995 data.
Using Figure 5-7
Total cost = size in sq. ft. x cost per sq. ft.
Total cost = 15,000 sq. ft. x $87.7/sq. ft.
Total cost = $1,315,500

Square Foot Estimate - Data
Using the Modeled Square Foot Data
What is the estimated cost of a 15,000 sq. ft.
library? Assume face brick with concrete block
back-up and a reinforced concrete frame, using
1995 data.
Using Figure 5-8
Total cost = size in sq. ft. x cost per sq. ft.
8
Square Foot Estimate - Data
Using the Modeled Square Foot Data
Determining the cost per sq. ft of the library, the
table shows the following estimates for given sizes:
13,000 sq. ft. = $89.00
16,000 sq. ft. = $87.00
For a 15,000 sq. ft. building, interpolate to a cost of
87.67 per sq. ft.
Total cost = 15,000 sq. ft. x $87.67 = $1,315,050
Both approaches have provided us with a square foot price
that at this point is unadjusted and therefore is good for the
national average city in the data year.

Square Foot Estimate - Adjustments
Reported Square Foot Prices
To make adjustments to the reported square foot
prices, the same method is used as in a ROM
estimate.
Example:
To design and build a median quality, 15,000 sq. ft.
library in Orlando, Florida, with construction to
begin in June 1995.
Previously the cost for a median quality library at
1995 prices was determined to be $1,315,500.
10
Square Foot Estimate - Adjustments
Reported Square Foot Prices
To make adjustment for size (see Figure 5-3).
Size factor = 15,000/12,000 = 1.25
Cost modifier = 0.98
Library adjusted for size = $1,315,500 x 0.98 = $1,289,190
To adjust for location:
Orlando index = 88.6
Estimated cost/100 = Adjusted cost for city/City index
Orlando cost = ($1,289, 190 x 88.6)/100 = $1,142,222
6. Building Economy ARE 431
Dr. Mohammad A. Hassanain 6
11
Square Foot Estimate - Adjustments
Reported Square Foot Prices
To adjust for time:
Assume a June 1995 construction start and a projected
increase of 2.5% per year, thus add 1.25% to the above
(early 1995) price.
Total project cost = $1,142,222 + ($1,142,222 x 0.0125)
Total project cost = $1,142,222 + $14,278
Total project cost = $1,156,500
12
Square Foot Estimate - Adjustments
Reported Square Foot Prices
Design fee adjustment (See Figure 5-10)
A further adjustment would add in the design fee. That reference
table shows that a library is in the same category as an apartment
building. Therefore, read 7.3%, as this building’s cost is close to
$1,000,000.
Total project cost = $1,156,500 + ($1,156,500 x 0.073)
Total project cost = $1,156,500 + $84,424
Total project cost = $1,240,924
This represent a median quality 15,000 sq. ft. library in
Orlando. Construction would begin in mid 1995, and the
cost includes a 7.3% fee for design services.

Dr. Mohammad A. Hassanain 7

Square Foot Estimate - Adjustments
Modeled Square Foot Prices
Adjustment is somewhat different from the Reported Square
Foot approach, because data from Means’ Modeled Square
Foot references does not include some common features that
would be in a typical library.
These typical add-on features that have to be added in
include:
Study carrels.
Emergency lights.
Furnishings (bookshelves, reading tables).
Site work is not included but the architect’s fee is.

Square Foot Estimate - Adjustments
Modeled Square Foot Prices
The price determined previously, building with face brick
with concrete block backup with a reinforced concrete
frame, using 1995 data, was $1,315,050. Accounting for
these project additives (See Figure 5-8).
(5) emergency lights @ 610 each = $3,050
(20) Study carrels @700 each = $14,000
(1) flagpole = $3,125
