This is the only Construction Cost Manual that has both "Open Shop" and Union Installation Costs
side by side on the same page.

Open Shop installation is computed from actual wage rates, not factored from union. You get a true picture of the differences.

Both material and installation costs include realistic overhead and profit and the man-hours make sense.
