What Is Concrete Estimating?
Concrete estimating is the process of pricing the concrete, reinforcing, formwork and finishing on a project. It covers footings, foundation walls, slabs on grade, elevated slabs, columns, site concrete and the labor to place and finish it.
Concrete numbers depend on exact dimensions. A thicker slab edge, a missed grade beam or a wrong footing size changes yardage and rebar fast. We take off concrete from the structural plans, sections and details in PlanSwift and Bluebeam, so every cubic yard can be traced back to the drawings.
