Area Calculation

Areas of walls, slabs, roofs, floors, cladding, etc., can be computed. It is possible to compute both surface and projected areas. You can create an instant Material Report that shows the surface area calculation of all materials in your SketchUp model.

Volume Calculation

Volume calculators in Quantifier Pro are significantly more powerful than those found in SketchUp’s Entity Info window. A group’s volume can be determined by nesting items within it as well as the total number of items within. As well as estimating the volume of solid objects that are not water-tight, it can also estimate the volume of liquids.

It can find the volume of concrete, gravel, topsoil, and a variety of other materials.

Weight Calculation

When you assign a unit weight density to an object layer in SketchUp, you can determine the weight of the object, Volume, area, or length can be used to assign unit weights.

Costs Estimation

Reports containing detailed cost calculations can be exported. You can assign reusable cost rules to all objects, materials, and layers. An object’s cost is calculated using the Cost Inspector Tool to ensure accuracy.

Features of Quantifier Pro

• SketchUp model updates are automatically reflected in all reports.
• The quantity takeoff reports can be fully customized to show volume calculations, dimensions, widths, heights, projected areas, surface areas, weights, costs, and more.
• Detailed Cost Estimate Reports can be exported in HTML or CSV.
• The unified cost data can be exported and imported between SketchUp models only using Microsoft Excel Windows.
• Multi-language support and international currencies.
• Reports can be customized in terms of units and precision.
• Profile Builder 3 gives you even more power.

Estimate the areas of slabs, walls, cladding, flooring, and roofing. Calculate the area of the current and planned structure. You can also calculate the overall volume of the components, groups, and nested objects contained inside.

SketchUp allows you to compute the weight of objects by setting a unit weight density for the object’s layer. Quantifier Pro provides exact dimensions for components and groups.

Features of Quantifier Pro

1. Quantifier Pro provides you with the tools to quantify and price your SketchUp objects. Within the quantifier, you simply select different objects in your model and then apply cost data to them.
2. When you select an object in Quantifier Pro, you can view that object within the Quantifier Pro dialog box.
3. Consider putting all objects on the same layer for a block wall if you’re going to quantify it. You can use this to apply different cost properties to objects on your layer.
4. Take, for example, the example of creating a foundation wall profile using Profile Builder 3. You have set up each profile to appear on its own layer. Basically, everything in that layer will get the cost applied to its face square footage when costs are applied to that layer.
5. This can also apply costs to objects based on other variables, such as length, within your model. With the profile builder, you can create a wood base inside your model. This calculates a cost for the wood base depending on the length and the unit cost if it is on a wood base layer.
6. You can also use this to quantify objects you’ve built yourself, even if they weren’t created with Profile Builder.
7. As well as the materials in SketchUp, you can apply cost based on those materials. The cost will determine based solely on the materials applied to the front side faces, avoiding double-counting of the backside materials using this method.

Calculation using Quantifier Pro

SketchUp plug-in Quantifier Pro allows you to calculate cost reports and quantities directly from your model.

Area Calculation

You can calculate the area of walls, slabs, roofs, flooring, and more. You can calculate the area of objects with thickness and the surface area. Easily calculate the surface area of any material in your SketchUp model with an instant Material Report.

Weight Calculation

Assigning a unit weight density to each layer in your SketchUp model allows you to determine the weight of your models’ objects. That can calculate based on volume, area, and length.

Length Quantification

Additionally, Quantifier Pro provides information about group width, height, and group length.

Calculate Volume

SketchUp’s Entity Info window is much less powerful than Quantifier Pro’s volume calculator. It is capable of determining the volume of nested objects as well as the total volume of groups and components. It can estimate even the volume of non-water-tight objects. You can use it to calculate the volume of concrete, gravel, topsoil, water tanks, etc.

Reporting

• When the SketchUp model changes, all reports automatically update.
• It is possible to customize quantity takeoff reports to include calculations for length, width, height, projected area, surface area, weight, and cost.
• Detailed Cost Estimate Reports can export in HTML or CSV.
• The unified cost data can only be exported and imported via Microsoft Excel for Windows.
• Multi-language and multi-currency support.
• Reports can customize with full control over units and precision.
• You can get even more power with Profile Builder 3.

A user can also create reports in Quantifier Pro and view them within SketchUp. Once the report creates, click the (Export SKP to Excel) button to export it in Excel.
