Structural Steel takeoff and estimating
Beams, columns, joists, and miscellaneous metals. CloerCon measures the plan once and derives structural steel quantities from it, priced against the rates in your own price book.
What gets priced automatically
Each line derives its quantity from the takeoff. The rates below are starting defaults — every one of them is editable in your price book, and yours is what actually gets used.
| Line item | Unit | Quantity comes from |
|---|
Available, but never added on its own
These sit in the price book so you can add them deliberately. Nothing here auto-prices — a line you didn't ask for is worse than a line you have to add.
- Steel beam — supply & set (ln ft)
- Steel column & base plate (each)
- Misc. metals & connections (job)
Same plan, every trade you carry
Measure once
Upload the drawing and CloerCon measures areas, perimeters, and openings. Structural Steel quantities derive from those same measurements.
Price from your rates
Your price book drives every line. Change a rate and the estimate, proposal, and every downstream document follow.
