LAFAYETTE, Ind, Sept. 30.—
[Five houses have been completed
as the first unit of the Purdue Housing Research Project and leased to tenants now occupying them,
The present Purdue housing research studies have two principal objectives. The first is the cost study of small houses. To this end, a different construction method was used in erecting each house, but each house was limited to $5,000 in cost, each providing the same accommodations. Accurate account was kept of all items entering into construction of each house. These costs are being studied, analyz and tabulated. - The cost data on one house has been completed and published as one of the booklets now being issued by Home Information Service of Better Homes “in America Inc. at Purdue. Booklets covering the
cost of the other four houses are to
be published as rapidly as data can be prepared.
Costs Shown in Detail
Detailed costs of the $5,000 steel house provide the most comprehensive information on the cost of building in the small house field that ever has been available to the public. According to C. Paul Ulmer, technical assistant of the project, nearly one-third of the cost of the house is for labor and about twothirds materials used in construction.
The first house for which cost figures are available was erected by the Insulated Steel Construction Co. of Middletown, O. The house has a living-dining room, kitchen, three bedrooms, bath and garage. Its total cost was $4992.20. The labor cost was $1271.00 and material, $3,263.85. The figures disclose that
plumbing, /heating and electrical |
work amounted to less than 20 per cent of the total cost. Foundations, floors, walls, roof and millwork represent the major cost items and were 66 per cent of the total. The largest single cost item was that of the steel walls,
The Steel House
23.94 per cent of the total. For (his particular house, the construction cost was $3.90 per square foof, or 36 cents per cubic foot.
Accurate Check Kept
Timekeepers were stationed on the job during construction to clieck hours of labor and material quan-
tities used. From their records and |
data furnished by contractors, itemized figures covering the entire ost of the house were obtained, stuclied and tabulated. . The Purdue Housing Research Froject studies have broken dow! the cost of this house into indiviciual items—labor, materials, contraciors’ profit and overhead as well as init cost of construction for the numerous items going into the house. The report discloses whal it costs to build foundations, lay floors, paint the walls, install electrical outlets and other essentials. The second phase of the Purdue Housing Research Project's activity consists of observation of performance of the equipment installed in the houses, the durability of the
construction materials used, and the quantity and cost of such items as gas, coal, water and electricity required to operate them.
This will be a continuing activity carried over a period of time in co- | operation with the tenants living in | the houses.
