Price of Drawings
Price of Drawings
(OP)
I'm a private consultant and I've been called in to do a design project. What I need to know is what is the national average price for a single lighting and power drawing?

RE: Price of Drawings
Cost per sheet is just a shorthand way of estimating engineering and CAD labor. Try estimating how much time you think it will take. That answer will likely be too high if you are competing with firms with more experience than you, so take a percentage of that. Or lower your billing rate.
And this cost probably has to cover all aspects of design, including specifications, calculations, etc.

This is a troubling statement from someone who is supposedly an engineer.
If you find a P.E. willing to stamp someone else's design, you should run, not walk, away from them.
