SITE CONDITIONS

Site conditions such as access restrictions, area climate, utilities, construction facilities and other
conditions unique to the site will be furnished to MCC by the client.

QUANTITY SURVEY

The quantities developed by MCC are some of the most detailed, comprehensive listings possible.
Drawings are studied for interference's and conflicts, omissions or duplications. Plan views are compared
to details and sections. The quantities are evaluated for waste amounts and included as appropriate.

DETERMINATION OF CONSTRUCTION METHODS

Individual parts of the project are analyzed for construction methods. MCC looks at the scope,
conformance to the documents and needs of the project. This involves the time of year for construction
(weather conditions), completion status of other work (ease or difficulty) and other site specific
requirements.

PRICING OF LABOR, MATERIALS AND EQUIPMENT

MCC utilizes the latest quartly edition of R S Means, including appropiate quartly location factors to
insure the accuracy of the estimate.

DETAILING OF INDIRECT COSTS

An integral part of each estimate is the cost of the indirect's on the project. At MCC, these include items
such as mobilization and demobilization, staffing, temporary buildings and construction, temporary
utilities, job office expenses, small tools and consumables, insurance, taxes, home office support and
finance expenses.
