Fire Suppression, Plumbing, HVAC and Electrical (MEP systems) account for a large portion of a building’s cost. Based on data from Design Cost Data (DCD), this in-depth resource examines these costs and the effect they have on total building costs.

The 2021 Mechanical Electrical Square Foot Costbook examines MEP divisions of buildings and provides an itemized account of the materials used and their cost. This resource features 65 projects of a wide range, with costs escalated to January 2021. Projects of all types – new construction, additions, renovations and build-outs are
included. Some of the projects included are “Green” and illustrate costs for geothermal concepts and other energy-efficient mechanical/electrical components.

It features 66 illustrated cost studies covering:

• Office buildings
• Multi-residential housing
• Municipal facilities
• Public works projects
• And much more

With the help of this  estimating guide you can instantly see exactly how MEP costs relate to overall building costs, and how much they can vary from one project to another.

Whether you're an architect, general contractor, or specialty contractor installing electrical systems or doing HVAC work, you'll find this to be an invaluable resource.
