A question of costs

A question of costs

A question of costs

(OP)
Hi all.

I have a question that is not directly structural but perhaps somebody "out there" can help me.

I work in Sweden and we have something called "sektionsfakta", section facts. It is information regarding if you for example have a wall made of 200 mm concrete. You find material costs, labour costs etc. You can also find weights, temperature properties and so on. It is commonly used for cost estimates in the building industry.

Does anybody know if there is a similar database, regarding costs, for the US available and if so, where can it be found?

Regards

Thomas
