FIG. 22 is an explanatory diagram showing a record layout of the estimate DB 57 of the fourth embodiment. The estimate DB 57 is a DB that associates each work performed when building a building with an estimated amount of each work. The estimate DB 57 has a project field, name field, description field, quantity field, unit field, design unit price field, multiplication rate field, unit price field, amount field, remarks field, history 1 field, and history 2 field. The history 1 field and the history 2 field each have a date field, a position field, a changer field, and a content field. Note that the estimate DB 57 may have fields after the history 3 field. In the following description, the history 1 field, the history 2 field, and the history 3 and subsequent fields are collectively referred to as a history field. The estimate DB 57 has one record for one summary.

The project name is recorded in the project field. The name of the construction is recorded in the name field. The name of construction means a name of a large item that largely divides a process of making a building, such as temporary construction, woodwork, and woodwork.

In the summary field, a summary of the construction is recorded. The summary of the work means a middle item such as a process or a description of the process when each work recorded in the work name field is divided into several items.

In the quantity field, the quantity of the item recorded in the summary field is recorded. In the unit field, the unit of the quantity recorded in the quantity field is recorded. For example, the unit is meter, square meter, legislative meter, tsubo, formula, book, table, piece, piece, pair, stock, day, month. , Tons, tons, tons days, square meters a month or square meters days.

In the design unit price field, the design unit price of each item recorded in the summary field is recorded. The design unit price is a unit price announced by a building material manufacturer or the like. For example, the unit price obtained from the integration table created in the third embodiment is used.

In the rate field, the rate of the item recorded in the summary field is recorded. The multiplication rate will be described later. In the unit price field, a unit price obtained by multiplying the design unit price by a multiplication rate is recorded. The unit price recorded in the unit price field is an estimated unit price for actual construction. In the amount field, an amount obtained by multiplying the estimated unit price by the quantity is recorded. The sum of the amounts recorded in the amount field is the total estimated cost required for construction. Remarks are recorded in the remarks field.

In each field in the history field, the history of correction of matters recorded in the estimate DB 57 is recorded. In the date field, the date when the estimate record is corrected is recorded. In the position field, the position where the estimate record is corrected, that is, the name of the corrected field is recorded. The person who modified the matter recorded in the estimate DB 57 is recorded in the changer field. The corrected person is a person who has logged in to the client who has received the correction. In the content field, the history correction content is recorded. For example, as shown in FIG. 22, the recording content before correction is recorded on the right side of the right-pointing arrow, and the recording content after correction is recorded on the left side of the right-pointing arrow.

Describe the rate. The multiplication rate is a ratio between the design unit price and the amount actually paid by the construction company or the like. For example, in the case of a large-scale property that uses a large amount of the same building material, the building material can be purchased at a price lower than the price used for integration. On the other hand, if the property is a small property, or if it is a land with inconvenient transportation such as a remote island, the purchase price of building materials increases. In addition, the purchase price is low for large construction companies with high creditworthiness. The purchase price is also low when there are many past transactions. Because of such circumstances, the multiplication rate varies depending on various factors.

The amount recorded in the design unit price field also reflects the labor cost of the craftsman performing the work. Wages vary from region to region, such as relatively high in urban areas and relatively low in rural areas.

When the rate is 1, it means that the item recorded in the summary field can be constructed with the same price as the price recorded in the design unit price field. When the multiplication rate is smaller than 1, it means that the item recorded in the summary field can be constructed with an amount lower than the price recorded in the design unit price field.

This will be explained with specific examples. Note that the unit of money in the estimate DB 57 is “10,000 yen”, and a case where the decimal part is omitted will be described as an example. In the first record of FIG. 22, “A01” of “temporary construction” of the project with the project name “PJ1” is recorded. “A01” is, for example, assembly work for a scaffold, grounding work for a temporary water supply, or the like.

”Unit price for construction of“ A01 ”is 110,000 yen. The rate is 0.9 due to the scale and location of “PJ1,” the actual unit price is 90,000 yen, and the amount calculated by multiplying the unit price by the quantity is 90,000 yen. There is no revision history for the temporary construction item.

On the other hand, in the last record of FIG. 22, “D04” of “Metal construction” of the project with the project name “PJ1” is recorded. Description of the history 1 field will be described. The record rate field of this record is corrected from “0.7” to “0.62” by “Mr. T of XX Construction” on “September 3, 2015”.

FIG. 23 is an explanatory diagram showing a record layout of the standard multiplication rate DB 58 of the fourth embodiment. The standard rate DB 58 is a DB that associates the name, description, region, and scale of the work with the initial rate used for the initial value of the rate.

The standard charge rate DB 58 has a name field, a summary field, a region field, a scale field, and an initial charge rate field.

The name of the construction is recorded in the name field. The name of the construction is a name of a major item that largely divides the process of making a building, such as temporary construction, wooden construction, and wooden construction as described above.

In the summary field, a summary of the construction is recorded. The summary of the construction means a middle item such as a process or a description of the process when each construction recorded in the construction name field is divided into several items as described above.

The name of the area of the planned construction site is recorded in the area field. The scale field records the scale of the building. In the initial rate field, a standard rate when the recorded conditions of the name field, summary field, region field, and scale field are combined is recorded.

The rate recorded in the initial rate field is, for example, a standard rate calculated statistically based on data on the area, scale, design unit price, and actual cost of a number of constructions performed in the past. Is the value of In addition, the rate used by experienced experienced designers may be investigated and recorded in the rate field.

This will be explained with specific examples. FIG. 23 shows the ratio of the main material for the internal finishing work. The main material means the material cost of building materials used for the floor, wall, and ceiling described in the first embodiment, for example. In the case of a small-sized property of less than 20 square meters in the 23 wards of Tokyo, the same cost as the amount calculated by the integration table described in Embodiment 3 is required. On the other hand, in a property with a scale of 100 square meters or more and less than 1000 square meters, the main material can be procured at an amount 0.7 times the amount calculated by the integration table.

The fields of the standard multiplication rate DB 58 shown in FIG. 23 are examples. As described above, the hanging rate varies depending on various factors.
