14. Cost Estimation: What is it? • Educated approximation of final cost. • Done at a point when: • A basic idea of material quantities is known • Before all of the final details have been worked out • Why is it important? • Prevents a waste of the engineer’s time and the clients money. • A worthwhile cost estimate • Total material cost • Total labor cost • Additional costs • GRAND TOTAL (Sum total material and labor)

15. Cost Estimation: The Components • Roadway Bridge • Abutment • Cast in Place Concrete • Compacted Fill • Piles • Levee Crossing • Cast-in-Place Concrete • Compacted Fill • Slope Paving • Roadway Deck • Precast Concrete Deck Slabs • Deck Framing (Girders & Diaphragms) • Painting • Roadway Bents • Piles • 6” Bracing • 8” Bracing • Structural Steel • Painting • T-Head Platform • Platform Deck &Framing • Timber Curb • Bollards • Cast-in-Place Concrete Deck • Finishing Concrete Deck • Structural Steel (Beams) • Piles and Pipe Bracing • 42”φ x .500” Pipe Piles • 12” φ Horizontal Bracing • 12” φ Vertical Bracing • Fender Connection to Pile • Painting • Fender System • Mooring Dolphins • Walkway Bents • Walkway Spans

16. Cost Estimation: Roadway Bridge

17. Cost Estimation: T-Head Platform

18. Cost Estimation: Additional Expenses

19. Plans • Proposed General Arrangement • Shows Position of Roadway, Dock, and Dolphins • Selected Elevations Were Highlighted • Soil Borings are Indicated

21. Plans • Proposed Roadway Plan and Profile • Shows Elevation of Road at Start of Ramp, Highway Crossing, Levee Crossing. • Locations of the piles and the spread footings. • The road way is 12ft wide. • The span length is 1019 ft.

23. Plans • Sample Bent • A general view of the bent • 12ft wide, 10in thick concrete deck • W36X135 steel girder . • The pile used is a 24in diameter and run -50ft deep from it tip into the ground

27. Conclusions • T-Head Platform dock was chosen as the general cargo dock. • Importance of permit acquisition • Construction time of approximately 13 months. • The total project cost was estimated to be around $9.25 Million
