Hi All Sifu,

I want to build a house on my land and the contractor quote me Rm1.2M and he told me that only the house and not even include piling and just today, he provided me with the piling quotation.

I want to ask Sifu here is the 7ins. Piling quotation below reasonable or not.

1. Mobilisation, installation and demobilisation og piling equipments Rm8,000
2. Setting out of piling points @ Rm8 x124= Rm744
3. 6m starter points @ Rm160x124= Rm19,840
4, 6 m  extentiong points @Rm172x124=Rm21,328
5.Handle, transport and pich @Rm10x248=Rm2480
6.Driving of 175mmx175mm r.c piles Rm8x1488= Rm11904
7.Extention joints(bult weld) to piles Rm20x124= Rm2480
8.Cut off piles head Rm28x123= Rm3472

If the engineer's plan said so then there's no argument there.I used to build an elevated water tank and we only need 60 something points.Your house must be very big then and your soil is soft hence the needs for numerous amount of piles point.

Other than the things I've mentioned the rate seemed reasonable enough for me.However please bear in mind,it's in provisional quantity meaning that the more they do the work,they more u'll have to pay.If the number of piles used reduce,then it will be below 68k and vice versa.

Cheers!

by looking at the quantities allowed, i doubt the soil is soft, 124 point and only allow 124 starter & 124 extension, meaning only max 12m per point, sometime the engineer just simply taruk as much point one doh.gif
