How to calculate the labor cost for RCC footings?/ Labor rate for the RCC footings.

 Let us consider a footing as shown in the below-given drawing.




Given data:

Footing size = 2000mm. × 1500mm.= 2m. × 1.5m.

Depth of the footing = 300mm. = 0.3m.

1. Footing concreting:

The labor rate of footing concreting will be between INR 500/- to 900/- per CUM.

Let us take the average rate of INR 700/- per CUM.


The labor cost for the concreting of footing

= [total vol. of concrete in CUM × rate/CUM.]

=[0.9 CUM × 700/-]

INR 630/-

Note: The vol. of concrete is taken from the above-linked article.


2.  Reinforcement:

The labor rate of footing reinforcement work will be between INR 8/- to 14/- per kg.

Let us take the average rate of INR 11/- per kg.


The labor cost of footing reinforcement

= [total wt. of steel in kgs. × labor rate/kg.]

= [ 42.709 kgs. × 11/-]

= INR 469.80/-

Note: The wt. of steel is taken from the above-linked article.


3. Formwork:

The labor rate of footing formwork will be between INR 10/- to 16/- per sq ft.

Let us take the average rate of INR 13/- per sq ft.

 or INR 140/- per sq m.


The total area of shuttering work for the footing box

= [(area of width side) + (area of length side)]

= [( 2nos. × 1.5m. × 0.3m.) + (2nos. × 2m × 0.3m.)]

=[ (0.9 sq m.) + ( 1.2 sq m.)]

= 2.1 sq m.


The labor cost of footing formwork

= [total area of formwork in sq m. × labor rate/sq m.]

= [ 2.1 sq m. × 140/-]

INR 294/-


Note:

1. The labor rate is also charged per no. of footing box, depending upon the footing size. But here, the cost is calculated on the surface area basis of a footing box.


The total labor cost of footing

= Cost of [ concreting + reinforcement + formwork]

= [630/- + 469.8/- + 294/-]

INR 1393.80/-
