Eos Common Steel Piping Database for Sage Timberline Office Estimating

Introduction The Common Steel Piping Database for Sage Timberline Office Estimating is designed to support piping estimating for buildings, process facilities, power plants, and other facilities which include common steel pipe specifications. The database supports conceptual estimating and detailed takeoff of designed piping. It is designed to address the needs of Engineering and Design firms as well as Installation Contractors. This database includes piping items for the common steel piping types, sizes, schedules, and pressure ratings. The database follows the Eos Group modular database design specifications so it can be expanded or merged with other modular databases without conflicts or renumbering. Eos Group has developed methods to quickly add additional piping materials and pipe specifications in the same structured manner to expand the piping database content. These may be added in entire sections, such as additional groups of pipe for different metal or specification. Or additional parts and pieces can be added, such as additional fittings, flanges, valves, or hanger parts. Because these methods have already been developed, the additions can be done at a reasonable cost.

Pre-defined WBS The database includes 19 pre-defined WBS codes. 6 of the 19 WBS codes include values that are pre-assigned to the items in the database to facilitate sorting of estimating data. An example of this pre-assigned sorting is available on the last page of this brochure. WBS Name Size Notes 1 Bid Item 20 2 UNI-1 1 Items pre-coded 3 UNI-2 4 4 UNI-3 6 5 Activity 20 6 Element 20 7 Area 20 8 Structure 20 9 System 20 10 CSI Div 2 Items pre-coded 11 Spec Sect 5 12 Estimator 3 13 Diameter 4 Items pre-coded 14 Pipe Spec 20 Items pre-coded 15 Pipe Sched 10 Items pre-coded 16 Pressure 4 17 Temp 4 18 Drawing 20 19 UPC 11 Items pre-coded

Item Material Pricing Representative list prices are used for all material items. Items which are listed by Harrison Publishing House price update service are pre-coded to facilitate price updating:

• Bill of Materials – For items which match the Harrison Publishing House pricing catalogue

• Price Update Codes – For items which match the Harrison Publishing House pricing catalogue

Sample comparisons to standard pricing sources are available on request.

Item Labor Pricing

• Crew-based pricing is used for labor, with labor productivities expressed as mh/unit. • All labor items are assigned representative productivities. • One crew, consisting of a steamfitter/pipefitter is assigned to all labor. • One rate table is included with a representative hourly rate for steamfitter/pipefitter. • Productivities are based on Eos developed labor hours. • Sample comparisons to standard man-hour sources are available on request.

Eos Common Steel Piping Database

Assemblies Assemblies are included to support rapid take off of either detailed or conceptual piping. Assemblies are designed to take off all items for a run of one size, schedule, and pressure in each pass. Assemblies are differentiated for shop fabricated vs. field fabricated piping and for differing joint methods; i.e. butt welded, socket welded, screwed, flanged (bolted), press fit, grooved end couplings. Each piping assembly includes pipe, fittings, shop welds and/or field welds, valves, hangers and supports, insulation, and coating. The user may enter specific quantities or select built-in calculation of quantities based on underlying calculations and tables (which are adjustable by editing the database). The selections for calculated quantities are based on entry of pipe complexity:

• Simple; min fittings (~2 ftg/100') • Moderate; avg fittings (~8 ftg/100') • Complex; many fittings (~14 ftg/100') • Highly Complex (~25 ftg/100')

Selection of labor conditions (see above) is also included. Items are selected for all possible entries made in the assembly takeoff. The database includes NSPC (Non Specified) items in the event the assembly takeoff entries would have otherwise selected an item which does not exist in the database. Assembly Names All Piping assemblies begin with an upper case P. This will allow for merging with other databases which use the Uniformat system of assembly coding. Although P is not defined in Uniformat, neither is it used.
