2.2 Design Requirements

Budget


The cost of the building materials must not exceed Rs.1500/- per square foot. Failure in doing the same will lead to disqualification. (Details regarding submission of budget sheet are given below). Cost should be calculated using rates mentioned in the rate chart. Points would be awarded for cost estimation.


Note: We have tried to make the rate chart as exhaustive as possible. If you are using any material other than mentioned in rate chart then mail us the details of the same and the reference you are using for its rate. Also, note that their might be a lot of unnecessary rates given in the chart which you can safely ignore. Regarding excavation, if your plans include underground construction then you will have to include it in your cost estimation. You do not need to include excavation costs of excavation done for laying foundation.
