Under the CPWD Delhi Analysis of Rates 2023 (Civil), item 10.16.3 Steel work in built up tubular (round, square or rectangular hollow tubes etc.) trusses etc., including cutting, hoisting, fixing in position and applying a priming coat of approved steel primer, including welding and bolted with special shaped washers etc. complete Electric resistance or induction butt welded tubes — is derived from 7 priced inputs for a truss and works out to ₹194.40 per a truss after water charges, GST, CPOH and cess. The full build-up is below.

  • weight = 119 kg.
  • 50mm dia. tube
  • Tie beam-1x8.0m = 8.00m+
  • Principal rafter 2x4.30m = 8.60m
  • Total = 16.60m
  • 16.60m @ 5.10kg./m = 84.66kg.
  • 40mm dia. tube
  • Members = 2(0.45+1.25+0.90+2.15)
  • Total = 2x4.75=9.50m
  • 9.50m @ 3.61kg/m = 34.60Kg.
  • Total = 118.96kg.
  • Total = 124.90Kg. say 125 kg
  • Priming coat
  • 50mm dia. tube 16.60x0.157m = 2.61sqm.
  • 40mm dia. tube 9.50x0.125m = 1.19 sqm.
  • Total = 3.80 sqm.
  • Welding charges:Rafter:- 4x22/7x6.03 = 75.80cm.+
  • Ties:- 2x22/7x6.03=37.90cm.+
