When you’re calculating the construction budget for a large commercial building, you don’t want any surprises. The wide range of estimates can make commercial construction costs seem unpredictable—how do you know which estimates are too high or too low? To get an accurate estimate, you need an experienced design-build firm like The Structures Group that can help you maximize your commercial construction budget. 

Commercial Construction Cost Analysis

As a design-build firm, we can offer precise estimates for labor, materials, and engineering costs. Because we work in close collaboration with architects and follow every market fluctuation, we can always offer accurate, up-to-date prices. We will establish the total project cost from the start and work within that set budget from the design phase through to completion. 

If you need engineering as well as building, we can include the engineering budget in your build cost estimate as well. Our engineers will determine the most cost-effective construction methods and structural materials for your commercial build. When you go with The Structures Group, you can rest assured that your final construction documents represent the most economical, structurally sound solution.

Optimizing Your Commercial Construction Budget

States Logistics

Although the original design was efficient, through our Value Engineering budgeting service we were able to offer a significantly lower estimate based on the original design. We worked with the structural engineer to ensure that the savings were represented in the final construction documents. 

Tom Jones Ford

The owner of this car dealership wanted an exposed steel deck for the service area. However, the cost of an all-steel structure was outside their budget. The Structures Group designed each area using the materials that best fit the situation, including wood and steel decks, wood and steel beams, and I-joists over the carwash.

Alliance Bank Chandler

Through several rounds of budget pricing, The Structures Group provided design input with economical solutions for the architect’s visions. Our plan for engineering the roof combined several cantilevered sections with tapered steel beams to create a unique architectural structure.

AvAir Headquarters

The architectural design for this building called for an exposed, two-story office structure with a barrel roof. We priced six different options to find the most economical and visually appealing solution. Our final design consisted of radius W-beams, a steel deck, and barrel joist girders, with bowstring joists creating an architectural feature for the parking covers.
