The Universal Suspended Floor Estimating Calculator is used to calculate the Labour, Materials and Plant items and costs involved in constructing timber suspended floors or any shape (i.e. not rectangular) for upper floors (i.e. not the ground floor).

The Universal Suspended Floor Estimating Calculator calculates the following items:

  • Floor joists
  • Floor surface
  • Insulation
  • Plastering
  • Decorating
  • Plus all labour associated with the above

All of the items required in a suspended floor are specified from the Specification.

NOTE:

  • You should also check all the pre-specified items in the Calculated Resources tab, in particular the red highlighted critical items, before accepting the output.
  • To estimate for a rectangular suspended upper floor use the Suspended Floor Estimating Calculator.
  • To estimate a ground floor suspended floor, use the Suspended Timber Ground Floor Estimating Calculator or the Universal Suspended Timber Ground Floor Estimating Calculator.
  • To estimate a main attic suspended floor for a cut roof, use the Attic Suspended Floor Estimating Calculator.
  • To estimate a main attic suspended floor for a truss roof, use the Attic Suspended Floor for Truss Roof Estimating Calculator.
  • To estimate for an attic suspended floor to the side voids, use the Attic Suspended Floor for Side Voids Estimating Calculator.
