# Consolidate Estimating Thoughts

My notes on construction estimating
are currently disparate, disjointed, and redundant

Remove estimating-specific content from irrelevant notes.

Create and use cross-topic notes for complex thoughts:
* [[actuarial-science-for-construction-estimating]]
* [[risk-management-for-construction-estimating]]
* [[auction-theory-for-construction-estimating]]

### Naming Conventions (Use Case vs. Description)

Related: [[realism-vs-instrumentalism]]

Naming by use case is intuitive for those without estimating or field experience,
but has the side effect that those accustomed to the names
will inevitably _treat them as descriptive_.

| Use Case            | Description   |
| ------------------- | ------------- |
| Hi-Hat              | Daisy-Chain   |
| Furnished By Others | Rough-In Only |
