The Basic rates list

Every analysis in the book is built from basic rates, like the rate of a mason for a day or of cement for a tonne. The Basic rates list keeps all of them in one place, so you can look up a rate without opening an item.

Things to know

  • The book has 2,576 basic rates, for the hire of machinery, for labour and for materials.
  • What you type is matched with the start of a code or with any part of a description.
  • When too many rows match, the list shows the first rows and says narrow the search for more.
  • The analyses price their lines from these basic rates. For example 0367, Portland Cement (OPC-43 Grade), is 5,156.00 per tonne, item 3.4 uses 0.38 tonne of it for every cum of mortar, and 13.1.1 is built from 3.4.
  • This list is only for looking. You change a rate on an item, in the panel called Change a rate wherever it is used, and the change goes into every line that uses the rate, in that item and in the items it is built from. Change one rate everywhere
