I typically have to go through multiple different videos trying to find answers I can understand. But you are a great teacher, Ill i needed was your video thank you!
Hello and thanks for the question. It really depends on the price of concrete, how many people working, are you using a curb & gutter machine or doing all hand forms? That's just for starters. I teach construction at a technical college and don't actually do the work. Here I am just teaching how to do the quantity take-off. So, labor, procedure, equipment, possible overhead is all another factor. I hope that helps.
I am working with a company and the lead estimator thinks I am wrong on my take off. He thinks for this size of curb and gutter you can only get 13lf per yard. I factor 1 yard is about 18 to 19 feet with waste. What should I tell him?
L x W x H....regulation is 4inches deep so for the height it will be 4/12 but simplify to ⅓....so let's say 20' x 6' x ⅓(.334) which will be 40.08ft³ ÷ 27 {27ft²=1yard of concrete}= 1.48 yards of concrete but order 2 to pack your edges

Can you tell me how you price curb and gutter? How do you charge per sq foot?

It would depend on the profile/size of the curb and gutter. Do you have a drawing of what the C&G dimension is?
1:17 is thats the flow line
Yes. That is the "low" part of the gutter where the water flows.
How do you do driveways
