Hey guys,

Recently a friend of mine purchase a plot of land and he's interested to construct a factory on that plot of land.

But I remain skeptical about the viability of the project, as

1. We are not builders. The total cost of construction and land maybe more expensive than getting a new factory

2. He maybe under-budget. As the construction material getting more expensive, the budget maybe burst and the whole construction will have to stalled.

Therefore, I'm here to ask,

Roughly what's the cost of construction a high ceiling 1.5 storey factory on a land of 7000sqft? Are using steel to construct factory cost much cheaper?

-> That plot of land already have water, electricity supply.

-> It's a uncleared barren land.

Thank you. notworthy.gif  notworthy.gif

Hopefully there's some QS expert in the forum able to give their comments notworthy.gif

7000ft2 land hmm.gif hmm.gif minus 20ft set back front, 10ft set back 2side & rear, the factory ground floor build up area will be less than 3500ft2, assuming u build 2 storey office with 1000 ft2 for 1st floor, the total build up area +- 4500ft2 only.

rough estimation will be rm250++/ ft2 for such small project nod.gif nod.gif very much depend on the land condition, ie flat/ slope, cut/fill, soft/hard/rock ground, piling/ pad footing...........

Is this the local council ruling? But I have seen factory fully utilise all the land area.

The rough estimation of 250/sqft is brick, concrete construction? Would it be cheaper, if it's build using portal frame and steel design?

the set back things is requirement, unless u want to build a illegal factory icon_rolleyes.gif

rm250/ sft is just example, without any info/ drawing....

portal frame/ steel structure/ pre-engineering may/ may not cheap, all depend on your requirement. btw, this is factory/ warehouse/ show room/ store.............. blink.gif
