Cost estimating manual for water treatment facilities

The only practical book or reference covering cost estimating in the sanitaryengineering field, Cost Estimating Manual for Water Treatment Facilities prepares engineers, planners, and contractors for the complexities involved in estimating the cost to construct a large water treatment facility. Written by experts in the field with over 80 years of combined experience, this is the firstbook to cover this complicated area in depth, providing readers with the skills they need to successfully estimate the cost of building, repairing, and expanding these massive public works.
