The Structural Opening to New Wall Estimating Calculator estimates the Material, Labour and Plant required to construct large structural openings in a new wall.
The Structural Opening Estimating Calculator is linked to the Specification. Therefore, many of the items required for a structural opening are specified by the Specification.
The combination of information taken from the Specification and the dimensions you enter will calculate the following items automatically:
- Lintels
- Plastering
- Decorating
NOTE:
- Please check all pre-specified items listed in the Calculated Resources tab, and in particular the red highlighted “critical items” before accepting the output.
- You must also carefully scrutinise the Sundry Resources tab which covers the more free form aspects of the structural opening.
- For smaller openings, such as doorways or windows, use the Small Structural Opening Estimating Calculator.
- For openings which require steels, use the Structural Steelwork Estimating Calculator.
