ESTIMATION FOR 0.75m X 0.

75m Concrete Lined Drains


Excavation
Length of excavation = 1m
Volume of soil = (0.6m + 1.05m) x (0.05m + 0.15m + 0.75m) x 1 = 1.5675 m3
3
Unit cost of excavation per m = ₦1,500
Cost of excavation = ₦2,351

Concrete in blinding
3
Volume of concrete = 0.05 x 1.65 x 1 = 0.0825 m
Unit Cost of concrete = ₦57,117
Cost of concrete material = 0.0825 x ₦57,117 ₦4,712.15

Concrete in Drain
Volume of concrete = ((1.05m x 0.15m) + 2(0.75m x 0.15m)) x 1 0.3825 m3
Unit cost of concrete = ₦57,117
Cost of concrete material = ₦21,847

Reinforcement
(a.) Estimation of the Quantity of Main Bars (U - bars)
The required number of bars = (Total/Spacing) + 1 6 nos

The total length of one U - bar (having removed 50mm


concrete cover) = (2 x 0.65)m + 0.95m = 2.25 m

The total length of bars required would be (length of


one U - bar x number of bars required) = 6 nos. x 2.25m = 13.5 m

The mass per metre of one 12mm bar = 0.888 Kg


Mass of 13.5m = 13.5 x 0.888 = 11.988 Kg
0.011988 ton
(b.) Etimation of Quantity of Distribution Bars
The distribution bars would be spaced at 200mm (0.2m)
over the length of one U - bar which is 2.25m

The required number of bars = (total length/spacing)+1


: (2.25/0.2) + 1 12 nos

The length of one distribution bar (having removed 50mm


concrete cover) = 0.9 m

The total length of bars required would be (Length of


one bar x number of bars required) = 0.9m x 12 11.025 m
The mass per metre of one 10mm bar = 0.616 Kg

Mass of 11.025m = 11.025 x 0.616 = 6.7914 Kg


0.0067914 Ton
(c.) Cost of Reinforcement
No. of Y10 mm reinforcements per tonne = 134 Pieces
Cost of Y10mm per tonne = ₦3,700
Total cost of Y10mm per liner metre = ₦3,367.18

No. of Y12mm reinforcements per tonne = 94 pieces


Cost of Y12mm reinforcements per tonne = ₦3,700
Total cost of Y12mm per liner metre = ₦4,169.43
Total for reinforcements per linear metre = ₦7,869.43

Formwork
Base = 2(0.15) x 1 0.3 m2
Walls = 2(0.75 + 0.75) x 1 3 m2
Total area of formwork required = 0.3m 2 + 3m2 3.3 m2

Unit cost of formwork (marine plywood) = ₦14,000


Total cost of formwork = 2.7m x ₦14,000 ₦46,200

S/N Cost Amount


Component
1 Excavation ₦2,351
2 Concrete in
blinding ₦4,712
3 Concrete in
Drain ₦21,847

4 Reinforcement ₦7,869.43
5 Formwork ₦46,200
Total ₦82,980
