Planning & EstimatingPregunta 77 de 100
To estimate labor, a painter uses a production rate. If one painter coats 150 sq ft per hour and the job is 1,200 sq ft for one coat, how many labor-hours are needed?
a.4 hours
b.6 hours
c.8 hours
d.12 hours
Explicación
Labor-hours equal area divided by production rate: 1,200 / 150 = 8 hours for one coat. Additional coats, prep, and setup add more hours. Accurate production rates from experience are the basis of a reliable labor estimate.
