Cost Data 2009 Book

An indispensable resource for contractors, government agencies and facilities professionals with projects up to $1 million. The prime source of data for most D.O.C., J.O.C. and S.A.B.E.R contracts.

The Means Facilities Construction Cost Data 2009 Book is devoted specifically to the needs of professionals responsible for the maintenance, construction and renovation of commercial, industrial, municipal, and institutional properties.
