I'm sure there are similarities between shop rate and construction. I started my commercial Industrial construction company in 1979. Then it would cost maybe $5,000 for architect / engineer drawings (maybe 5 sheets of drawings), permits would have been around $10,000 and take up to three weeks to obtain. The last building I did before selling the business cost $150,000 for engineering (20+ sheets of drawings), $260,000 for permits that took nearly 6 months to obtain.

Liability insurance rose greatly over inflation and just reporting requirements added substantially to our cost. Special inspections were added as a requirement in addition to governing jurisdiction inspections. Workers compensation costs also increased way faster than inflation. There's a lot more to it than just inflation!
