Construction costs of Office Building

建設費用

Accurate Office Building construction costs (construction costs) are determined by this estimate after detailed design.

​In the “ Flow from design to completion ”, it is the stage of “ 3 Quotation adjustment/confirmation application: this quotation/quotation adjustment ”.

We can give you an estimate of construction costs after planning and design, but the amount is not final.

We will estimate the estimated construction cost based on our abundant experience.

There are two major costs in constructing a Office Building: a design supervision fee and a construction cost.

Design supervision fees can be provided after Concept Design.

The design supervision fee is about 8-18% of the construction cost, so the "construction cost" accounts for the largest proportion of the plan.

​It is very important to know the estimated construction costs of Office Building in advance, and it is possible to obtain them with simple calculations.

How to estimate construction cost for Office Building

Estimated construction costs for newly built Office Building are dependent on 1. Types of building structure 2. Construction area 3. Total Floor area.

The following is the standard for the construction cost of each structure per tsubo (1 tsubo is approximately 3.3 m2).

Includes not only the building itself but also interior work.

1. Unit price per tsubo depending on the type of building structure

  • RC structure: 1.3 million yen ~/tsubo

  • Steel structure (S structure): 1 million yen ~/tsubo

  • Wooden:  800,000 yen ~/tsubo

2. Unit price per tsubo depending on construction area

The construction area is the floor area that is actually made. The total floor area does not include the area under the balcony or eaves.

The unit price per tsubo decreases as the size of the building increases and the construction area increases.

If the specifications are the same, the unit price per tsubo will be higher for smaller buildings.

3. Unit price per tsubo by region

In large metropolitan areas such as Tokyo, labor costs are high, so the unit price per tsubo is high.

The price per tsubo decreases as you go to rural areas.

If you contact us, we will confirm the unit price per tsubo in that region and let you know for free.

Please let us know the following matters when making inquiries.

Structural type (RC structure/steel frame/wooden structure)

Grade: want to keep it simple, give it a luxurious feel, etc.

Total floor area (if you know) →If you do not know, ask for Concept Design.
