As far as I'm aware, the construction industry uses different formulas for calculating how long typical classes of work will take to accomplish. They can plug the square footage of some task into a spreadsheet and have a reasonable estimate for building time.
- RegW 5y agoFrom what I understand, a construction "blue book" would give work rates for common tasks. How long it takes one man to dig a trench 10 yards long, or lay a 1000 bricks. From this you could calculate how long the entire job would take. When I first encountered "Project Managers" in the 80's they were still trying to fit this model to software development.
