Bill of Quantities (BoQ) Data for a Residential Building Project in Zonguldak, Turkey.

README: Bill of Quantities (BoQ) Dataset for a Residential Building Project 1. Research Overview This dataset contains the comprehensive Bill of Quantities (BoQ) and detailed quantity take-off calculations for a multi-story residential building project located in Zonguldak, Turkey. The data is structured to provide a complete overview of material consumption, structural requirements, and finishing works for academic and professional construction management research. 2. File and Structure  File Name: BoQ_Residential_Building_Zonguldak.xlsx  Format: Microsoft Excel (.xlsx)  Language: The raw data labels are in Turkish to preserve the original engineering and site records.  Units: Metric system (meters, m2, m3, kg). 3. Spreadsheet Tabs (Sheets) Summary The Excel file is organized into several sheets, each representing a specific construction work package:  Beton (Concrete): Volume calculations for structural elements.  Demir (Reinforcement Steel): Rebar weights categorized by diameter.  Tuğla (Masonry): Brick counts and wall measurements.  Dış Cephe (External Facade): Insulation and facade finishing area calculations.  İç Metrajlar (Interior Quantities): Room-by-room flooring and wall finishing measurements.  Kalfa (Site Summary): Simplified summaries used for onsite coordination and payments. 4. Comprehensive Translation Key To assist international researchers, the following tables translate the key Turkish terms used throughout the dataset: A.

Architectural & Finishing Terms (Dış Cephe, Tuğla, İç Metrajlar) Turkish Term English Equivalent Turkish Term English Equivalent Ön Cephe Front Facade Banyo Bathroom Arka Cephe Rear Facade Mutfak Kitchen Doğrama Openings (Windows/Doors) Salon Living Room Mantolama Thermal Insulation Yatak Odası Bedroom Sıva Plastering Koridor / Antre Hallway / Entrance Dik / Yatık Upright / Flat (Brick) Fayans / Seramik Tiling / Ceramics 5. Usage Notes  Reinforcement: In the "Demir" sheet, 8 to 16 represent the steel bar diameters in millimeters. Total weights are typically in kilograms (kg).  Net Area Principle: In the "Dış Cephe" sheet, "Toplam Net Alan" is calculated by subtracting "Doğrama" (window/door areas) from "Toplam Brüt Alan".  Brick Orientation: In the "Tuğla" sheet, "Dik" (Upright) and "Yatık" (Flat) orientations change the number of bricks required per m2 (26 vs 38 pcs).  Project Locations: "Zonguldak" and "Kozlu" labels refer to specific blocks or orientations of the building units. 6.
