Yes, within the ZenEstimate HVAC tools we handle rectangular, circular, spiral, etc. at all sizes.

@@ZenTekConsultants Is it possible to Make Duct Quantity take off from Autocad Drawings.? It shall be customized as per our requirements, like setting up the sheet thickness standards as per SMACNA Construction schedules & setting up the duct connectors / and exporting all this to Excel format.

Kindly send us a demo video Can you pls send your mail id., to explain our requirements in a better manner

@@hameed1117 The demo video is the video you commented on. You can reach us at 866-824-4459 or sales@zentekconsultants.net to discuss your specific needs.

@@hameed1117 Sounds like most of that can be handled in Bluebeam but the AutoCAD linework can’t be used to import data into Revu. Unfortunately Bluebeam doesn’t import data from other sources easily. We could work with you on doing a custom table structure in AutoCAD and data connecting it directly to Excel. We have a very extensive CAD/Design background here at ZenTek as well. Just reach out to sales@zentekconsultants.net if you want to discuss in detail.

You can create a stamp for each engineer, then have them run the sign & seal function separately, placing their password protected sigs where needed on each plan. HTH

You can right click on one of your existing counts and click on “Resume” from the drop down menu. This allows you to manually count the objects.

Without details it’s hard to say for sure but this can happen if you move the Excel file from the original location you linked it from. In other words, if you create the links when the PDF/Excel files are in Folder “A”, then move the excel file to sub-folder “b”, the links can’t resolve.

@@ZenTekConsultants Thanks, usually happens if I close excel and reopen it will say “links suspended” or it says “links connected” but it does not update when I add markups to the pdf so I have reconnect each cell ..very frustrating

@@joes2805 Not sure what your issue might be, but I’d check to make sure the plugin for your current version of Revu is enabled in the Bluebeam Administrator program and that you have the Complete version installed as it’s the current requirement for quantity linking. Hope that helps!

@@ZenTekConsultants Thanks I think I figured it out. Is it possible to link cells to specific pages of a document set ? Lets say a 4 floor building with 6” pipe on each floor .. can I link a cell to 6” pipe in the 1st floor and a cell to 6” pipe on the 2nd fl (page) etc. within the same excel sheet ?

@@joes2805 Glad issue’s resolved! Yes, you can link to measured items in spaces, by subject, by label, etc. pretty much any Revu category can be filtered for quantity links. This is something we do for a lot of clients here at ZenTek - helping them develop tools to link to their current workbooks. Let us know if we can help!

Hi, Unfortunately we don’t have a telecom or low voltage ZenTek Revu Tool set available. However, if you are interested, we can develop custom telecom tools for you. zentekconsultants.net/bluebeam-tool-chest-customization-services/. Give us a call to discuss your specific needs - 866-824-4459

Yes, BricsCAD and AutoCAD share most of the same command aliases!

You would create the box by extruding a rectangle into a cube.

You can copy sections and items within an Action Plan, but I don’t think you can copy from one to another. Possibly consider duplicating the template you need, then copying/editing sections within it? Here’s a link to how that works: Copy Action Plan Items and Sections - Procore: support.procore.com/products/online/user-guide/project-level/action-plans/tutorials/copy-action-plan-items-and-sections#Copy_Sections_and_Items_on_an_Action_Plan

Absolutely. Once the TIN is built, the contours are automatically generated. You just need to turn their display on/off in the properties tab.

Thanks for the kind words. We used the dynamic fill feature there, but we just cut the step-by-step from this video so we could focus on the Quantity Linking and not the standard takeoff tools.

@@ZenTekConsultants Ahaa I see.. Thanks for the reply!

That’s correct. You can tie this into your existing Excel estimating sheets, or ZenTek can help you do that!

Exactly, we nested the room ‘space’ inside the building ‘space’, etc. so it gave us a result like ‘BLDG 1 - 1ST Floor - Room 100’. You’re on the right track!

Either way works, and neither is wrong. For a lot of people, subassemblies are tedious and confusing, especially when working non-standard designs, so a feature line is a simpler control structure to work with.

Glad you liked it!

You have more options to customize counts by creating the symbols first and then converting them to count objects. Standard built-in count objects are limited to specific shapes/colors.

Bookmarks are created in the PDF itself, the ‘Summary’ is for exporting to a file only, but you can easily insert that exported PDF back as the first page of the PDF so it becomes a table of contents, if that’s what you’re looking for. Use the Thumbnails tabs > Insert Pages to make that happen.

If you are using PROCORE for web, click on the markup & press the delete key (DEL) on your keyboard. Your browser will ask you if you want to delete the markup & you can confirm it by clicking “OK”. Let us know if this works or if you’re utilizing the PROCORE app for Android/iOS devices.

Hi, Unfortunately this is not something we can provide guidance on. It's best to contact your local SBA office and a local legal firm for guidance. Best of luck!

Unfortunately there is no way to copy project Action Plan edits from one project to another, so you will have to change it on all the other projects that it the Action Plan template has been applied to.

Unfortunately, no. The linking can only be done on a cell-by-cell basis.

​ Yes, if you open the Properties panel at the same time as the Forms panel, you can change the font/color/size, etc. Click the form field tool, then BEFORE you place it on screen set the text settings in the Properties panel. Then place the field on the PDF and your settings are there.

The key is to create a ‘Master PDF’ and a ‘Master Workbook’ and link them together. Place one (1) of every tool you have in the Master PDF and link them to the Master Workbook. Now, once you get a new job, save the Master Workbook to that job folder and change the source file to the construction documents. All the values will go to zero (0) but once you start adding in the tools into the CDs, the values auto-populate. The key to this whole process is well developed tool sets, which is something we can help you with here at ZenTek!

@@ZenTekConsultants Hi, thank you very much, I got it to work! Seems that what I've been doing wrong is saving them in same file location.

Unfortunately, no. Bluebeam has a one-way connection output from Bluebeam out to Excel, it doesn’t read back in at this point.

Your best bet here would be to generate a custom column in Bluebeam, using a formula that multiplies the length x depth fields rather that trying to handle the calculations in Excel.

Got it, thank you! I was able to find a work around using wall area.@@ZenTekConsultants

You’d be drawing out individual bars to do it, but you can overlap or wrap as needed. You might want to look into our ZenTek Revu Tools - Concrete set for this type of work. zentekconsultants.net/zentek-revu-tools/

@@ZenTekConsultants I emailed the customer support regarding these tools . Do they come with formulas also? If so I may be purchasing these

@@benl3rd No, the functionality is built-in but the Excel formulas have to be custom built. This is something ZenTek can help you with if needed.

@@ZenTekConsultants I’m saying the formulas for blue beam come with the tool set ?

@@benl3rd There are custom columns, with basic calculation formulas in our ZenTek Revu Tools and extended formulas in our ZenEstimate tools but they function only within Revu and aren’t linked to Excel by default, though they can be.

Using the Manual Alignment, with the snap commands on and carefully selecting (3) matching points is your best option. If that doesn’t help, it’s possible that the comparison is seeing slightly different line weights or colors.

You can visit zentekconsultants.net/zenestimate-tools/ to purchase.

550$ for tools wow

For items that require only a single acceptable answer, like a test, you need to use Radio Buttons and collect them as a group. Check boxes allow multiple selections to a single question.

Absolutely, the good thing is that there are plenty of integrations and add-ons for most of these types of tools that, provide real-time (or near real-time) sync to other systems. The other good thing is that all of these Cloud agents are replicated so usually, if something goes down, you're automatically shifted to a duplicate server without interruption.

Hi, yes we can. Please call us at 866-824-4459 to discuss your needs.

You have two options: just import the existing Bid files as documents, or you can download the Bid Form Template from inside Procore and fill it all out so everything can be re-imported as a standard Procore Bid.

The links work for any numeric column (built-in or custom) so if you link to the Count or Length of “2” Rebar” into a cell, the link will work.

Rather than a long explanation, because you’re right: it’s a complicated process, I’m going to tell you to take a look at our ZenEstimate Steel tools. We’ve gone thru all that complexity and built a set of tools that sounds like a perfect fit for what you’re asking about. zentekconsultants.net/zenestimate-tools/
