Estimating in Building Construction (6th Edition) (Purchased on 01/26/2010) by Frank R. Dagostino, 14 Mar 2010
By K. E. Schwartz-McGady - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Estimating in Building Construction (Hardcover)
The book itself is OK, given that it covers a dry but vital subject if one wants to do construction. On the other hand, it could be better written and the questions could be better framed.

All materials not included, 11 Nov 2011
By Mujer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Estimating in Building Construction (Hardcover)
When purchased new, this textbook comes with a set of drawings. The drawings are vital to the comprehension of the subject matter in the text. However, the drawings were NOT included with this purchase, and that information was NOT included in the description. Very misleading and disappointing!

Good for those starting in the construction field, 13 Nov 2010
By Claudia Garcia "clauclau" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Estimating in Building Construction (Hardcover)
This is a very good book for people from differente backgrounds thata are just starting in the construction field. It shows step-by-step, clear instructions on how to make calculations for takeoffs of most all components of buildings, and illustrates how all of the assembly gets put together into the production of a bid.
In this book I found help for my estimating class, but it also gave me a well-rounded understanding of what is involved in constructing a structure.
