To calculate the foundation cost per square foot:
\[ C_{psf} = \frac{C_{total}}{A} \]
Where:
The foundation cost per square foot is a measure of the cost to construct a foundation for a building or structure, expressed in terms of dollars per square foot. This metric is useful for budgeting and estimating the total cost of a construction project based on the size of the foundation. It takes into account all expenses related to the foundation, including materials, labor, and any additional costs associated with the construction process.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
Step 1: Divide the total foundation cost by the total square footage:
\[ \frac{C_{total}}{A} = \frac{50000}{2000} = 25 \]
The foundation cost per square foot is $25.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
Step 1: Divide the total foundation cost by the total square footage:
\[ \frac{C_{total}}{A} = \frac{75000}{3000} = 25 \]
The foundation cost per square foot is $25.
