4.0 out of 5 stars A contractors point of view., March 26, 2006
By Gregory Perkins (San Juan, Puerto Rico) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a very complete compilation of cost data for commercial construction. The systems portion is very helpful for a quick estimation but the real value is in the wide variety of componets listed. This book will take awhile to learn to use for the new contractor but the investment in time is worth while.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Good Starting Point, March 22, 2006
By D. P. Lewis (Tulsa, OK United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
For anyone in the construction management field, this text is a well-known reference. Nothing can replace your own firm's historical productivity data and quotes from subcontractors and suppliers, but RS Means can give you a good idea of where an estimate begins. It is a great tool for architects and owners to calculate preliminary cost estimates for a wide range of products.
