Automate quantity surveying in AutoCAD with a concrete plug-in that creates data tables from polylines and text. Calculate volumes for footing, ground beams, beams, columns, and slabs and generate reports.
Learn to download and install application, locate the Autodesk plugin in program data, and open AutoCAD to access the concrete ribbon with foundation, column, beams, ground beam, slab, and license.
Acquire and activate a free AutoCAD license, verify compatibility across versions from 2015, and confirm the license is active for structural element work.
Automate the creation of a data table for pc footing in AutoCAD by extracting area and parameter from polylines and saving them as block attributes after converting units to meters.
Enter the footing height via properties, apply the height attribute for BC blocks (100 mm), then calculate the volume and prepare the report.
Create a summary report from the chosen attributes, save to a path, and export type, count, area, and volume, including total area and total volume.
Automate data creation from AutoCAD drawings by exporting text to Excel, filling data from a file, calculating volumes, and generating a detailed RC foundation report with dimensions, areas, and counts.
Learn to rapidly calculate foundation volume in a mega project using AutoCAD by cleaning and filtering text, updating attributes, and generating detailed area and volume reports.
Isolate footing data in AutoCAD by filtering foundation text that starts with f. Copy footing lines, compile into a block with attributes, and export data for area and volume calculations.
Learn to compute ground beam volume using the application by extracting line and text data, configuring ground beam types GP1 and GP2, and exporting a BIM report for total volume.
Calculate column concrete volume between floors in AutoCAD using column types, shapes, and block attributes, with height adjustments for beam depth and slab to generate a report.
Learn to calculate beam volumes by measuring width, depth, and length, and generate area and volume data with an automated application that organizes beams and produces reports.
Quantify structural beams in AutoCAD by defining beams as lines, building BIM data blocks with length, area, and volume, and generating total length and volume reports in one step.
This lecture demonstrates quantity surveying for beams in AutoCAD: selecting and merging text, flattening geometry, and generating block attributes to calculate beam area and volume for BIM reports.
Welcome Autocad Automation Total Volume for Structural Elements! using QS_CONCRETE;
QS_CONCRETE is a plugin in AutoCAD I developed it to shortcut the time in task of quantity volumes of concrete such as
Foundation – ground beams – columns – beams - slab
Forget the old methods of calculating quantities that take a lot of time and effort
in sorting types, then collecting lengths and areas, and copying the results to Excel
With the new application, all you have to do is prepare the work file, and then with the help of the application, you will get the results and reports directly (type - count - area - volume - total area - and total volume),
With the collection of different types of structural elements in a detailed report for each element
with the ability to modify and update easily.
With technical support from the developer and updating commands if necessary
You can share any of your files with me to search and discuss the best and easiest solutions
The application has more than 20 new commands in Autocad and supports many versions of Autocad from Autocad 2015 to the last version 2024
The application QS_CONCRETE collects data from polylines, lines, circles, and text and creates a new data table for each item
