Cost of a Ridgetop DesignThe
cost involved in the design of a structure and foundation is based
on the amount of time required to produce the final product. A very
simple frame which consists of 30 or 40 components will require less
time to design than a structure with 200 or more components. Also,
multiple client-driven modifications to the design will extend the
time and cost of the structure.
Designs are created
with the assistance of a component library which contains thousands
of standard parts that can be inserted into a design in very
quickly. This allows Ridgetop to efficiently design a structure and
that time saved is money saved by the client.
The base
rate for Ridgetop Design service is $50.00 per hour. There are no
additional billings for printing, plotting and standard postage. The
client will be invoiced for special request transmittals such as
Federal Express Overnight shipping. There is no charge for telephone
