NOTE: Trenwyth offers the above only as
a relative comparison of nationally averaged material costs.
Your region may vary. Figures are based on best data available
at time of printing, and are given to aid the specifying
architect/engineer in cost evaluation. All costs are calculated
on a square foot basis and include materials, labor, overhead,
and profit.
To calculate an accurate comparison of
different wall systems, the life-cycle costs of a building
must be taken into consideration. For example: What is
the continuing cost of operating and maintaining the
building? How many times will gray block or acoustical
panels need to be repainted? The average time period
for repainting is estimated to be every 3-5 years. Trenwyth
products are finished units that will never need repainting.
