Cost of Pipe Materials

[lopie00]

I am trying to estimate the cost of a very basic in-plant project which requires routing several hundred feet of 4" galvanized pipe in clarifed water service. Does anyone know where I can find basic cost estimations for pipe materials and valves?

Richardson Rapid Estimating Handbook. You'll find Cost of material (field and shop), manhours, tax adjustment plus escalation factor. demographic location was also factored in if yur in usa + cost of inspection and testing. Four vols, u will need vol 3 mech'l.

ralphsare, thanks for the help. Is this handbook something I can pick up at a place like Barnes and Nobles or is is only available thru some specialty store?
