Construction Production Rates for Estimating Contract Time
The objective of this research is to develop a guide and tool to effectively estimate contract time for future construction project. This will improve the accuracy and consistency of estimating contract time, leading to shorter construction periods and reduced construction impacts to the traveling public. It will also improve the efficiency of creating estimates, thereby saving a state transportation agency’s time. Learn more about this project
