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.

Description

Takeoff Field Tools is a specialized software designed for construction takeoff and estimating, tailored for Windows users such as owner-estimators, small contractors, specialty trades, remodelers, and rehab investors who prefer a streamlined desktop experience without ongoing seat fees. Users can easily import PDF plans, floorplans, or other compatible images, calibrate scales using accurate labeled dimensions, and measure various metrics like counts, lengths, areas, perimeters, and volumes, ultimately converting project scopes into detailed, reviewable estimates that incorporate reusable items, assemblies, costs, waste, labor, overhead, and profit. The software facilitates the creation of proposals, workbooks, quantity reports, exports, backups, and comprehensive project packages, ensuring that both projects and reusable estimating logic remain stored locally on the PC, with the main workflow functioning offline post-installation. Exclusively available for Windows, it does not offer features such as automatic AI takeoff, hosted collaboration, or mobile applications, and users need to ensure photo measurements are based on reliable references and verified in the field.
