| Abstract: | In this report an analysis is carried out on wastewater treatment plant project costs. This research aims to discover possible cost estimating relationships in order to increase accuracy on cost estimating for wastewater treatment projects. In order to discover qualitative cost estimating relationships the first chapters provides a study in the wastewater treatment processes and cost divisions in order to determine the scope. The possible cost estimating relationships are then shown and tested. For a set of objects from the waterline a cost estimating relationship has been determined. No conclusive cost estimating relationship tool could be created due to a lack of datapoints gathered. Possible improvements for further research include uniform storing of data regarding the different disciplines involved in the project, a uniform cost breakdown structure throughout all projects regarding wastewater treatment plants and more research on underlying cost determining factors of the objects researched. |
