Construction, reconstruction or major repairs cannot be started without determining their cost. And the price of work cannot be calculated without a project or a defective statement. The work of the estimator is the link between the construction work project and their beginning on the one hand, and the person confirming the cost of the work performed, on the other.

Gosstroy and the Estimator's Day
Fifteen years ago, in 2000, hydroelectric power stations were introduced by a resolution of the Gosstroy of Russia. For the layman, such an abbreviation does not say anything, but for the estimator, this is the base of standards by which construction work is regarded.
The state estimated standards total more than fifty collections for various types of work. For example, when determining the cost of a screed device with a screed, the collection “Floors” will be selected, in which there is a norm that determines the need for resources for the necessary work. According to the norm, it is clearly visible how many man-hours and what kind of discharge is needed for a screed device with an area of 100 m 2 , how many cubes of masonry mortar must be purchased or prepared, the operating time of surface vibrators and elevators.
Since the surveyor works closely with many people of different professions - designers, foremen, accountants, economists, it is important to know what date the Estimator's Day is, so as not to forget to congratulate a colleague or acquaintance. April 26 was marked by a decree approving the same standards, after which the date was fixed for the celebration of the Estimator's Day.

Kind words in prose will be more natural and soulful. On the Day of the Estimator congratulations may sound the following:
- “Dear colleague, thanks to you, our company saves a lot of money. You are our shield that doesn’t let greedy contractors go to the construction site.
