SLATING
_Quantities_
SQUARES
Main and dormer roofs 22.0
Porch roof 6.4
Tower roof 3.7
----
32.1
_Cost_
The price of slating per square is given in Table XII, _Estimating and
Calculating Quantities_, Part 1. Bangor slating costs $8 per square.
On account of the curved tower and the number of hips and valleys, and
because the measurement just given is actual measurement, the price
will be put at $10 per square. Thus, the cost of 32.1 squares at $10
will be $321.
