Budget per square meter

[Anonymous]

Hi everyone! I don't know if this topic is appropiate for this forum. If not, please let me know.

I am making a budget for the modelling of the construction and piping of a big water treatment plant. And, in my opinion, the best way to arrive to a fair budget is multiplying an "x" amount of money to the total area of the plant.

How much, in dollars, do you think it would cost?

Edit: How could anyone possibly know without a lot more details?

Dera @Anonymous ,

if it were that easy, I've done something wrong for the last 35 years.
To set a budget, you have to give us a little more information

Its not that easy. You'd be best off working out an amount per lines, and some sort of linear length estimation.
