Bicknell described the processes of the contracting business from prepa- rations to bid on a job to completing} the structure. | After studying the plans and speci-| fications, the contractor estimates the cost of the work and offers his bid. Having been awarded the contract, he breaks it down into various subdi- visions, budgeting the cost of each construction item with the original estimate. Since revision of the plans end specifications frequently are made while the building is in prog- ress allowanee is made in the budget for changes, he said. Keeps Things Moving One of the biggest jobs the contrac- tor has is to keep things moving in proper order, seeing that the sub- {contractors are informed as to their tSchedules of work and observe them and otherwise coordinate the effort of a big organization, Bicknell as- serted. Outlinging how this is done on a schedule, he showed a progress sched- ule which shows when various items of work are to be begun and com- pleted. Structural steel work, for ex- ample, started Oct. 1 and is to bej completed by the third week in No- vember. The steel work now is up to the jground level and the derrick used in placing it soon will be lifted to the |upper level in order to maintain the iproper altitude. By the time the top| | floor is reached the derrick will be |perched on the steel at or near the top level, Bicknell said. ‘The progress schedule calls for com- Bicknell said, although the contract allows 18 months. The difference al- lows for delays due to weather, he ex- plained. x Bicknell said the building is really a 2l1-story structure since it has two basements and a floor at the top to house machinery. The weight of the tower is carried on four footings each 54 by 19% feet and designed to carry 3,200 tons. The largest load on any one column will be 1,500 tons. He! made it plain that the soil under the | footings is the main factor in de- termining how big they shall be. } Cites Big Figures | The job will require 65,000 tons of material or 2,000 carloads. This make a train 15 miles long.) The payroll will total about $750,000} for a million and a half of work) hours. There will be 8,000 yards of| concrete to be made from 320 car-| loads of gravel and 12,000 barrels of | cement. The 5,500 tons of steel will! be made up of 3,250 tons of struc- tural material, 1,600 tons of miscel- laneous steel and iron for stairs, an- gles, etc., and 650 tons of reinforc- | ing. i In addition there will be 70,000 cu-} bie feet of stone, 1,700,000 bricks, | 500,000 square feet of tile, 175,000 feet of lumber for forms, 300 tons of metal windows, doors and trim, two carloads of glass, 540 tons of marble, 30 carloads of cabinet work, 2,000) tons of plaster (enough for 10! acres), 80 tons of paint, 100 tons of reofing and 80 tons of sheet metal.
