Abstract

This study aims to compare the unit price of the cost of a brickworks between the bricks with size based on market and based on with Indonesian National Standard (SNI) 2008 for brick wall instalation. The sample was determined by a random sampling technique with 100 bricks that traded in Medan City. The data collection tool used is open questionnaire. Data analysis done by using descriptive statistical analysis and unit price analysis based on SNI 6897: 2008. The results found that there is a difference in the unit price of the brickworks between bricks with SNI size and brick with market size, that is 11.45%. The installation of a wall with brick size according to SNI is more cost effective compared to the of bricks with market size. This finding can be used by planner and contractor consultants as a basis for making decisions to make offers in accordance with the availability of brick materials traded in the area around the project.
