The PlansXpress Collared Ceiling Estimating Calculator is designed for use with PlansXpress. 

If you wish to estimate a Collared Ceiling completely within EstimatorXpress (i.e. not using PlansXpress), use the appropriate Cut or Truss Roof Attic Interior Conversion Estimating Calculator which includes the Collared Ceiling. 

If you have created your estimate based on a PlansXpress drawing, the data for the interior of the attic is imported into multiple separate EstimatorXpress Estimating Calculators. You may also wish to review the PlansXpress Attic Sloping Ceiling and PlansXpress Attic Upstand/PlansXpress Attic Upstand for Truss Roof Estimating Calculators.

The PlansXpress Collared Ceiling Estimating Calculator estimates the following elements of the collared ceiling:

  • Collar joists and noggings
  • Insulation 
  • Plasterboard and skim
  • Decoration 
  • Fixings
  • Plus all labour associated with the above

The PlansXpress Collared Ceiling Estimating Calculator is linked to the Specification.

Note:

  • Particular attention should be given to the types of insulation and plasterboard specified.
