General Comments
on Use of
Unit Costs, Area Cost Factors,
Size Adjustment Factor, and Inflation Rate
April 27, 1999
The following tables for Unit Costs for DoD Facilities, Area Cost Factors (ACFs), Size
Adjustment Factors, and OSD Inflation Rates also are maintained and available on the
National Institute of Building Science (NIBS) Construction Criteria Database (CCB).
Please address any questions regarding the following tables or cost engineering procedures
to your participating Service member of the Tri-Service Committee on Cost Engineering.

Tables A1 and A2: Unit Costs for DoD Facilities:
1. Table A1 provides metric unit cost data for DoD facilities in dollars per square meter
($/m2). Table A2 provides equivalent English unit cost data in dollars per square foot
($/SF).
2. Most of the unit costs and referenced facility sizes are based on historic construction
award data for Air Force, Army and Navy projects with construction contracts awarded
after January 1991. Unit costs for a few category codes that have a limited number of
awarded projects are based on contracts awarded since 1989. The unit cost database
includes only new construction projects and does not include data from renovation or
add/alter projects. The facility types or category codes listed represent those facilities more
frequently constructed by the Services.
3. The unit costs are escalated to October 2001 and October 2002, the assumed midpoints
of construction for FY01 and FY02, respectively. Use the official OSD inflation rates
shown in Table D to escalate the FY02 unit costs beyond FY02.
4. The unit costs are for primary facilities only and do not include supporting facility costs;
equipment acquired with other fund sources; construction contingency factors; supervision,
inspection, and overhead (SIOH); or construction cost growth resulting from user changes,
unforeseen site conditions, or contract document errors and omissions.
Table B: Area Cost Factors:
1. Use these area cost factors (ACFs) only with the unit costs from Table A.
2. Area cost factors are updated based on a construction market survey of local costs for a
market basket of 8 labor crafts, 18 construction materials, and 4 equipment items. These
labor, materials, and equipment (LME) items are representative of the types of products and
services used to construct most military facilities. The survey covers a list of 222 locations
that includes 96 Base Cities (two per state in the continental US), 106 additional locations
in the U.S., and 20 Overseas locations.
3. Each of the LME costs is normalized and weighted to represent its contribution to the
total cost of a typical facility. The normalized LME then is modified by seven matrix
factors that cover local conditions affecting construction costs. These matrix factors
include weather, seismic, climatic (frost zone, wind loads, and HVAC), labor availability,
contractor overhead and profit, life support and mobilization, and labor productivity versus
the U.S. standard. The resultant ACF for each location is normalized again by dividing by
the Base City average to provide a final ACF that reflects the relative relationship of
construction costs between that location and the Base City average as 1.00.
4. There is no easy correlation between these ACFs and previous ACFs for specific
locations. No common benchmarks exist because both the Base City average and the
relationships between cities change for each two-year cycle. It is possible, however, to
compare differences between several locations in this database with differences between the
same locations in previous databases.
5. Do not use these ACFs to modify parametric cost estimates, detailed quantity-take-offs,
unit price book (UPB) line items, or commercial cost data. These other cost estimating
systems and databases have their own processes and factors for adjusting costs to different
locations.
Table C: Size Adjustment Factors:
1. The Size Adjustment Factor table is based on data analysis that shows a correlation
exists between project size and construction cost. Unit construction costs generally are
lower for larger projects due to greater opportunities for material quantity discounts and for
spreading mobilization, demobilization and general overhead costs over a greater number of
units.
2
2. All unit costs are based on the referenced facility sizes. Use Table C, Size Adjustment
Factor, to adjust unit costs for facilities whenever your project size differs from the
referenced facility size shown in Table A1 or A2. Divide the gross area of your proposed
facility by the referenced size for that facility type to determine the size relationship ratio.
Use this ratio to find the appropriate size adjustment factor in Table C. Multiply the unit
cost from Table A1 or A2 by the size adjustment factor to calculate the adjusted unit cost
for your facility.
3. Base your proposed project size on the total project scope to be awarded as a single
construction contract, regardless of the number of buildings to be constructed within that
scope. If a construction award project is to be broken into a number of discreet phases
where the contractor has limited control over the phasing, use the average scope for all
phases as the basis for your size adjustment calculations.
4. EXAMPLE: You propose to build a 6,440 m2 Enlisted Dormitory (Barracks) in FY01.
The referenced facility size taken from the unit cost summary is 9,200 m2. The size
relationship quotient is 0.70 (6,440 m2 divided by 9,250 m2). Enter Table C to find the Size
Adjustment Factor of 1.04. Multiply the unit cost of $1,453/m2 by 1.04 to determine that
your adjusted unit cost is $1,511/m2.
Table D: Inflation Rates:
1. The inflation rates in Table D are based on Budget Authority guidance issued by the
Principal Deputy Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) memorandum of 31 December
1998. Use these rates in submission of the President’s Budgets for FY01 and FY02 and in
supporting congressional justification materials.
2. The Table D inflation guidance has an arbitrary baseline of 1.00 for October 2001. The
inflation indices are based on the Engineering News Record (ENR) historic data through
October 1998 and the Comptroller projected inflation rates after that date.

Inflation multipliers through October 1998 are based on Engineering
News Record Building Construction Indices.

Price Escalation Indices (Annual Rates in Percentages) for the OSD
Budget Authority for Rates for Military Construction/Military Family
Housing Construction per guidance issued by the Principal Deputy
