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
eTakeoff Dimension serves as a comprehensive electronic viewer and PDF takeoff solution tailored for estimators in various construction fields. The Basic version is a free tool that allows for viewing, printing, and basic takeoff functionalities. Its design serves a dual purpose; it not only introduces users to the eTakeoff platform but also offers straightforward measurement tools independently. For those who aren't professional estimators or have limited takeoff requirements, Basic may suffice as a standalone solution. Additionally, Basic functions as a valuable supplement to the Advanced and Premier versions of eTakeoff. It is an ideal free resource for others in the office who need the ability to view or print plans. Furthermore, eTakeoff integrates the advanced capabilities of Togal.AI alongside SnapAI, its proprietary AI technology that enhances the Dimension Premier version with built-in AI features. SnapAI streamlines the electronic takeoff process significantly, allowing estimators to select points, logical lines, or polylines effortlessly, which can reduce takeoff time by up to fifty percent as it enables instant capturing of corner points or entire line measurements rather than requiring clicks at both ends of a line. This efficiency not only saves time but also boosts productivity for estimators using the software.
