REQUIRED ESTIMATED LABOR ONLY PROJECT BUDGETI $15,992 ~
** The cubic yardage is an approximate amount; the actual cubic yardage may vary
based on the subgrade preparation by others. Sub-subgrade should be organic free
heavily compacted then raked material. Sub-grade should be 1-1/2" clean split-rock
at a depth of 6"-8" heavily compacted material. Pervious concrete depth was figured
for a 4" section to finish grade. Again, all site subgrade preparation is to be performed
by others. Improper subgrade preparation may result in additional costs for labor
if corrections are made by Grant Steel Buildings and Concrete Systems, Inc.
Grant Steel Buildings and Concrete Systems, Inc and the ownerl owner's rep. will
confirm the condition of the subgrade prior to the commencement of work by Grant
Steel Buildings and Concrete Systems, Inc.
This estimate is based on prevailing wage rates.
This estimate is based on having additional labor support from the City of Bremerton
Park and Recreation Department personnel and equipment for both the forming and
place/ finish labor that is to be performed. This includes the use of the City of Bremerton's
crane/ boom truck for pervious concrete placement in various locations at the project site.
This is a labor only estimate, therefore, the City of Bremerton Parks
and Recreation Department will purchase all materials needed to complete the installation
of the pervious concrete scope of work. Grant Steel Buildings and Concrete Systems, Inc
will provide all incidental forming material/ equipment with the exception of one-time-
use forming materials Le. 2" x 12" S1S2E Tight-knot cedar boards for the framing of the
interior portions of the Garden Maize area.
Please refer to the "at cost" offer made for this project in the e-mail to Colette Berna,
City of Bremerton Parks and Recreation Department Planner, dated 2/9/2009.
