Structural Steel Take-off: Columns + Beams
Structural Steel Take-off:
Columns + Beams
For fabricators and commercial main contractors handling large-scale steel projects, from industrial builds to complex multi-story frameworks and more.
We break out steelwork by level and type to issue a clear and intuitive 'ready-for-pricing' member schedule for all columns, beams, portals, struts, plates, stiffeners - you name it.
Revision-friendly: updated drawing sets are re-measured with a clear delta summary that allows pricing any contract variations with the least amount of hassle.
Email your plans and we’ll confirm a fixed fee and turnaround timeframes today.

Tender Drawings
Send through the Architectural & Structural documentation sets along with any NTT's & Specifications issued to date.
CostX Measure
Drawings are loaded into CostX for manual take-off. We follow ANZSMM 2022 best practices for measuring.
Estimate Summary
Scope is split out by level/zone and measured in depth, with any overarching preliminary items such as site sheds, shop drawings, as-built's, PS3 and similar isolated above.
Estimate Detail
Scope is measured in depth and presented in a logical manner, with any level/zone specific preliminary items such as testing, access, inductions etc isolated.
Sell Rate Pricing
We do not currently offer fabricator sell-rate computations for structural steel works pricing.
Final - Summary
Receive a hard copy of the final summary showing GFA and total cost per level as an overview.
Final - Detail
Receive a hard copy of the final scheduled quantities showing total KG, lineal meter & count as a baseline for all future variations.
Protective Coatings
We can include a m2 area of all members in the same PDF and Excel format to assist with any prime / protective coatings.
Excel - Summary
Scope is split out by level/zone then measured in depth, with any overarching preliminary items such as site sheds, shop drawings, as-built's, PS3 and similar isolated above.
Excel - Detail
Receive a soft copy of the final quantities showing total KG, lineal meter & count as a baseline for payment claims & variations.
11. Scope Report
We will issue a covering letter that includes the final measure, documents used & any noteworthy tags/clarifications.

FAQ
What do you need to complete a structural steel take-off?
Send the latest issue Structural & Architectural drawings (GA plans, elevations, sections and details), the steelwork notes/specification and any Engineer mark-ups help too.
Do you break down quantities by level/zone and member size/section? (WB/UB/UC/RHS/SHS/CHS/PFC/EA etc)
Yes. Where the drawings have multiple floors/levels, we schedule member sizes within their correct locations so steel fabricators can easily follow the takeoff and apply the right rates to prevent scope gaps.
What’s included in your steelwork take-offs for fabricators?
Total kg, meters, m2 and count by member. We isolate and measure structural steel quantities for columns, beams, portals, struts, plates, stiffeners, bracing and connection plates that are shown on the drawings, presented as a clear schedule that's ready for pricing.
Can you re-measure revised drawings and show what changed for re-pricing/variations?
Yes. Take-off revisions will include an overarching delta summary so you can quickly identify what changed, and where, to help simply variation submissions.
