This document provides an example calculation for the built up rate for formwork to the horizontal soffit of a slab. The material costs include plywood, formwork strutting, and nails. Labor costs include skilled and unskilled labor for fixing and removing the formwork. The total cost per square meter is calculated by adding the material and labor costs and then applying a 15% markup for profit and overheads. The final built up rate calculated is RM28.50 per square meter.

BUILT UP RATES

TOPIC: FORMWORK pg 171

Example 1
Formwork to horizontal soffit of slab – m2

Data:
Plywood 2.40m x 1.20m x 12mm thk = RM35.00/pcs
Timber strutting 50mm x 100mm @ 1.40m3/tonne = RM900.00/tonne
Nails = RM4.50/kg
Formwork used = 6 times
Skilled labour = RM50.00/day
Unskilled Labour = RM40.00/day
Labour constant:
Fixing - Unskilled = 0.75hr/m2
- Skilled = 1.00hr/m2

Removing = 0.75hr/m2

CMA453 1
Answer (Example 1);
A. Material cost
i. 12 mm thk plywood RM35.00
2.40m x 1.20m = RM12.15/m2

ii. Formwork strutting


(0.06m3/m2 x RM900/tonne) ÷ 1.40m3/ tonne = RM38.57/m2

RM50.72/m2

Cost formwork for 1 time used = RM50.72/6 = RM8.45/m2

iii. Nails 0.35kg/m2 x RM4.50/ kg = RM1.58/m2


RM10.03/m2
Add: 10% wastage = RM1.00/m2
Total material cost RM11.03/m2

B. Labour cost
i. Labour for fixing formwork
(Unskilled) → RM 40.00/8hrs x 0.75hrs/m2 = RM3.75/m2

ii. Labour for fixing formwork


(Skilled) → RM 50.00/8hrs x 1.00hrs/m2 = RM6.25/m2

iii. Labour removing formwork


(Unskilled) → RM 40.00/8hrs x 0.75hrs/m2 = RM3.75/m2

RM13.75/m2

C. Total cost = Material cost + labour cost


= RM11.03 + RM13.75
= RM24.78/m2

Add: 15% profit & OH = RM3.72


RM28.50/m2
