Description
Demotek is a specialized software for estimating and takeoff designed for contractors involved in demolition and asbestos abatement. This innovative platform consolidates the entire bidding process—covering plan measurement, pricing, crew organization, waste disposal, and proposal generation—into a single cohesive tool, effectively replacing the traditional combination of Bluebeam, spreadsheets, and various disconnected applications.
Users can easily upload plans in formats such as PDF, PNG, or TIFF, which are equipped with searchable pages and instant thumbnail previews, allowing for straightforward area, length, and count takeoffs directly on the drawings, thanks to automatic scale calibration. Each scope can be priced using customized rates for materials, transport, and disposal, and users can leverage "scope circuits" that link materials, sawcuts, and disposal methods into pre-formulated unit costs, making it possible to encode a bid once and reuse it indefinitely. The crew planning feature efficiently allocates foremen, laborers, operators, and drivers, integrating burdened cost calculations into the process. Additionally, the software includes road-based disposal routing, which factors in haul cycles and tipping fees for an accurate bid, while salvage tracking helps to reduce costs by accounting for the value of recoverable materials. This comprehensive tool ultimately enhances efficiency and accuracy in bidding for complex projects.
Description
Excalibur View is a construction-focused drawing viewer, markup, and takeoff software developed by a structural steel estimator actively working in the field.
The markups created are standard PDF annotations, ensuring that any set annotated within the program can be opened seamlessly in applications like Bluebeam Revu or Adobe, retaining all formatting and positions. It also supports the import of Revu .bpx profiles and .btx tool sets, complete with their associated tools, custom columns, and unit weights.
This software empowers users to measure length, area, count, volume, and angles at the specified scale, with each tool incorporating its own unit weights, allowing for tonnage calculations on the takeoff while drawing beams. The Shop List feature efficiently converts marked-up items into a cut list, detailing stock lengths, saw kerfs, and leftover drops.
Excalibur View is available for free to individual users, including for commercial purposes, and requires no account or expiration date. For offices, Excalibur View Office is offered at a one-time fee of $250 per seat on owned machines, with optional updates at $100 per seat annually.
Notably, the software operates entirely offline; drawings, markups, and takeoffs remain securely stored on your hardware without any cloud integration. Furthermore, the software's source code is available under the Elastic License 2.0, allowing for further customization and use.
