The CISCA Production Guide is a practical reference for labor cost data but is not, in itself, presented as a textbook in estimating. Further, it is not the purpose of CISCA in publishing this guide to standardize the units used by acoustical contracting firms throughout the industry, but rather to promulgate a method of labor cost estimating based on a “component” theory that has worked well in other segments of construction. If used properly, the CISCA Production Guide produces estimates of far greater accuracy. Member Price: $45.00
Non-Member Price: $85.00
