1. If it costs $500/mbf to purchase dimensional framing lumber, and it takes 15 MH/MBF for your carpenters to frame and they earn $30 per hour plus 50% labor burden, what will it cost to have all of the wood wall studs and plates (no other framing) installed for the 'J' residence installed? Exclude the headers and sheeting for this exercise. Do not include the PT plate as it is more costly. Do not deduct for block-outs such as windows and doors. If you count one stud per LF and add 10% to the length of plates that will be enough for cripples and blocking and corners and waste. (2 Points) If you ask nicely, Len will send you'e' versions of CCE estimating forms. 1.
