[[OST]] http://www.oncenter.com/products/ost/index.html (On Screen Takeoff) is a construction estimating software system that measures images from .PDF, .TIF and .JPG formatted blueprint files. Measurements are normally done with digital plans using a mouse and video screen. Digital plan sets are linked to the stored .TIF files on hard drives in directories. Pad digitizers with styluses can used for traditional paper blueprints. Measurements are stored in an Access or SQL databases in conditions, which are organized by construction divisions, specification sections, material types and user defined descriptions. Selected from style sets of prefabricated conditions, each condition which can be user modified has image layers, height, width, depth assignments and stores up to three measurement units such as linear feet, square feet or cubic yards. The program displays the takeoff measurements data, group subtotals and the total calculated quantities. Conditions can be further grouped into zones and repeating typical groups. A stand-alone component of the On Center Software (OSC) system, OST is linked to the Quick Bid ([[QB]]) construction pricing software.

[http://www.autohotkey.com/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page AutoHotkey] (also AutoIt V2) is an open source utility (written in C++) that uses a custom GUI scripting language for keyboard shortcuts, key and button remapping, mouse functions, text replacement shortcuts and GUI forms. The macro programs are typically written with the [[SciTE]] editor or in text. All keystrokes have symbols and names used by the scripting language. AutoHotkey has process management, environment events management, directory file management, typical flow control, Windows API functions, COM functions, math and string functions. Macros are written using the GUI scripting language to manage and program windows, forms, the system tray, menus, keys and buttons. The macros can be started by keys, key combinations, text key sequences, start menus, time and window events. Autohotkey programs can be limited to working in a specific application’s window by using the window’s name or application's form by using the form's name. Complex and repetitive procedures in a software application that require many keystrokes/buttons can be programmed in AutoHotkey to a single keystroke.

Revit

KarlN:

Revit is a 3D construction modeling software package by Autodesk that allows users to collaborate online to find clashes in the structural, electrical, and mechanical design. The 3D plans can be rotated about any point the viewer selects. Plans with perspective lines allow users to view a walk through the structure by navigating with a mouse. Accurate updating of the database during the design phase and with survey information from robotic stations through to construction can identify areas where items in the 3D design overlap occur or "clash". These clashes are costly to find on regular 2D digital plans or redesign in the field. Reveit is used to view the schedule of construction activities or 4D CAD. The up to date completed 3D database Building Information Modeling (BIM) is the documentation used for future building maintenance and expansion.

The software has a user modifiable library of standard building components that are used to construct the building in 3D. Building structures are designed from families of structural beams, walls, floors, trusses and braces. The interior components are families of walls, doors, windows, columns, ceilings, floors, curtain walls systems. Families are organized in to types. Each type is assigned properties for the assembly specification. The type properties is a multi-list box that allows specifying in categories: constraints relative to other components, construction of the component, dimensions of the specified component, identity data about the manufacturers product, materials and finishes, cost from subcontractors, construction schedule phase data, graphics color and fill pattern. Additonal properties can be added to define the component type.

[http://www.edgewin.com/AboutUs.aspx EDGE Estimating Software System] is construction estimating software program that measures images from .PDF formatted blueprint files and prices contract proposals.

== Plan Measurement ==

Measurements are normally done with digital plans using a mouse and video screen. Digital plan sets are linked to the stored .PDF files on hard drives in directories. Pad digitizers with styluses can be used for traditional paper blueprints. Measurements are stored in an SQL databases in conditions that are organized by plan sheet, in plan sets, by user defined descriptions and price scenarios. The condition forms contain menus and user modifiable labels that allow users to select the products installed to meet contract specifications. Selected from master database of prefabricated forms, each multi-tab condition form which can be user modified by checkboxes and dropdown boxes has image layers, height, width, depth assignments and stores six or more measurement units such as linear feet, square feet or cubic yards. The program displays the takeoff measurements data, page subtotals, subtotals by name and the total calculated quantities. Conditions can assigned a repeating multiplier.

== Contract Pricing ==

Intergrated with the measurement software, the Edge system prices contract proposals based on labor types, material specifications, overhead and mark up. By selecting conditions with identical key fields a group of conditions can modified simultaneously by a user to meet contract specifications. Conditions can be adjusted interactively. Conditions contain menus for labor, specific craft trades, and hourly rates; and material costs for the specific products. The master database can include "Smart Rates" that automatically adjust installation methods slower or faster to match the assigned height of the condition. The Edge has standard reports and custom reports for detailed labor, materials and total prices with breakdowns by zones or groups of conditions.

[http://www.edgewin.com/AboutUs.aspx EDGE Estimating Software System] is construction estimating software program that measures images from .PDF formatted blueprint files and prices contract proposals.

== Plan Measurement ==

Measurements are normally done with digital plans using a mouse and video screen. Digital plan sets are linked to the stored .PDF files on hard drives in directories. Pad digitizers with styluses can be used for traditional paper blueprints. Measurements are stored in an SQL databases in conditions that are organized by plan sheet, in plan sets, by user defined descriptions and price scenarios. The condition forms contain menus and user modifiable labels that allow users to select the products installed to meet contract specifications. Selected from master database of prefabricated forms, each multi-tab condition form which can be user modified by checkboxes and dropdown boxes has image layers, height, width, depth assignments and stores six or more measurement units such as linear feet, square feet or cubic yards. The program displays the takeoff measurements data, page subtotals, subtotals by name and the total calculated quantities. Conditions can assigned a repeating multiplier.

== Contract Pricing ==

Intergrated with the measurement software, the Edge system prices contract proposals based on labor types, material specifications, overhead and mark up. By selecting conditions with identical key fields a group of conditons can modified simultaneously by a user to meet contract specifications. Conditions can be adjusted interactively. Conditions contain menus for labor, specific craft trades, and hourly rates; and material costs for the specific products. The master database can include "Smart Rates" that automatically adjust installation methods slower or faster to match the assigned height of the condition. The Edge has Standard reports and custom reports for detailed labor, materials and total prices with breakdowns by zones or groups of conditions.

Revit is a 3D construction modeling software package by Autodesk that allows uses to collaborate online to find clashes in the structural, electrical, and mechanical design. Accurate updating of the database with survey information from robotic stations from the design phase through to construction pin points areas where items in the 3D overlap or clash occur. These clashes are costly to find on regular 2D digital plans. The up to date completed 3D database Building Information Modeling (BIM) is the documentation used for future building maintenance and expansion. Reveit is used to view the schedule of construction activities or 4D CAD. The software has a user modifiable library of standard building components that are used to construct the building in 3D.
