Construction ITEM DESCRIPTION

Concrete construction unit cost for installation of concrete floor slabs.

This cost covers the cost per cubic yard for a slab of any thickness. Use it along with the cost per square foot.

NOTE-- This is half of a two-part unit cost that covers any slab thickness. Goldenseal also includes standard unit costs for slabs in three common thicknesses, 4" , 5" and 6".


Unit Size

One cubic yard of slab volume.


Labor Costs

We figure about one hour of labor per cubic yard of pour (part skilled labor and part unskilled).

This covers placement of the concrete.

NOTE-- The cost of reinforcing and finishing is covered in the per square foot unit cost.


Material Costs

The cost includes one yard of concrete with an additional 8% waste factor, and a reminder to bring some concrete placement tools.


Hard Construction Costs, Typical

$87.01 per cubic yard of concrete placed


Suggested Quantity

Goldenseal calculates the total slab volume, and uses it for this unit cost.


Source of Construction Pricing

Based on job cost data and crew timing from a large number of concrete floors, sidewalks and other concrete slabs built by Turtle Creek Construction.
