Quick and Easy man-hours estimate for Construction of a reinforced Concrete base ARCHITECT | CONSTRUCTION | ENGINEERING GUIDE Standard man hours for Civil works Standard man hours for Civil works. In this publication, we will give a quick estimate of the labor required for the execution of reinforced concrete structures. To perform this type of estimate, we will analyze the performance of the following activities: Time for manufacture and fill concrete. Construction and assembly time of formwork. Cutting, folding and mounting time of the reinforcement. Note: The times given in this publication apply to small works. 1-Task: Prepare concrete and its subsequent pouring into the structure. The yields indicated below are conservative and valid for structures at the ground level. Efficiencies for filling structures, with manual preparation and transfer of concrete equal to 8 hours of work x m3. Same here, but for plates equal to 6 men hours x m3. In the case of a concrete prod...
