Using the Toolbox2.1 blueprint screen-takeoff software you will measure pdf or tif files and other blueprints directly on your computer screen, color coding and shading the blueprint as you go. There is no expensive hardware required and your construction blueprint take offs will be lightening fast and highly accurate.
You can rest easy knowing that you have a complete blueprint take off because this powerful Monitor Takeoff measuring technology makes job estimating easier than ever because you can see, color code, measure and/or print your entire blueprint take off with the blueprint or pdf file in the background. Trace odd shaped areas or calculating volume, count and linear measurements have never been easier.
This blueprint-software allows you to easily see exactly what you've taken off with the blueprint behind it. Add text or notes directly onto the blueprint and print or even copy the blueprint section to your windows clipboard and paste the image into emails, RFIs or other communications making it easy to communicate details with others on the construction project team.

Includes an Excel Compatible Spreadsheet for building a complete construction cost estimate
Your measured screen-takeoff values including area, linear, count, volume and slope are easily embedded directly into the desired cell in the built in Excel compatible spreadsheet and will update automatically as you measure the plan. You no longer need to worry about whether or not you have updated your estimate when changes are made to the plan. If you get an updated plan page from your GC or the architect you can easily paste the entire takeoff onto the new plan page making it easy to see where changes have been made that affect your construction blueprint takeoff.

If you already have an construction estimating template that you have built in Excel you can set the Toolbox2 to 'auto-load' it each time you start a new project or visit our new site dedicated to customized Excel spreadsheet templates and download one for your trade today!
