Brief demonstration of drywall estimating template in excel

This construction video tutorial provides the demonstration of user-friendly and spreadsheet based drywall estimating software.

It becomes difficult for the contractors to estimate and finish takeoff from drywall works. But this video shows how to make the process simple. In a drywall estimating process, the following steps should be included :-

Workout the Square Footage

Estimate Drywall Boards

Estimate Drywall Tape

Estimate Joint Compound

Estimate Drywall Screws

Estimate Corner Beads

Estimate Drywall Miscellaneous

What are the maximum bearing capacity of various types of soil

In this construction video tutorial, one will be familiar with how to determine maximum bearing capacity of various types of soil.

Safe Bearing Capacity of Soils is defined as the maximum strength of loading that the soil will bear securely devoid of the risk associated with shear failure.

The bearing capacity of soil refers to the maximum average contact pressure among the foundation and the soil which should not lead to shear failure in the soil.

In the jobsite you will be provided with drawings along with soil investigation report. From soil investigation report, you can get various information about the soil upon which the building will be constructed like number of fillings in the soil, the bearing capacity of soil, bearing pressure of soil to undergo.

There may be some errors in the report or higher value for bearing capacity.

In this video, you will learn how to find out maximum bearing capacity of soil and tally this figure with the soil test report to check for any discrepancy.

In the video, there are two heads like soil type and safe bearing capacity of soil. In soil type, there are different types of soil like combination of soft, wet and muddy clay, fine/loose or dry sand, soft clay, black cotton soil, moist or sand clay mix, loose gravels, compacted gravels, soft rock, sand or lime stone, hard rock/granite/trap etc. For each type of soil, the maximum safe bearing capacity is provided.

Go through the following video tutorial, to get more details.

Construction Formula Generator

It is basically a spreadsheet where the programme automatically generates. The program integrates flawlessly into Microsoft Excel as an add-in, allowing easy admission to our simple and powerful boundary.

It is a great helping hand for theestimator, it is a trade specific and installed with general formulas of construction. This pre-loaded form helps to calculate framing, drywall, concrete, site and painting and general formulas for adding cells and waste for addition of cells and waste. It can make own formulas too.

It is a versatile sheet with great compatibility with an affordable range:

• Drywall
• Concrete
• Site
• Planning
• Framing

The price range in USA is approximately varies $ 29.00 in to $ 99.99. Here are some greattutorials that helps estimators to know this elaborately.

• Construction Formula Generator Training by Drywall
• Construction Formula Generator Training by Concrete
• Construction Formula Generator Training by Site
• Construction Formula Generator Training by Paint
• Construction Formula Generator Training by Framing
• Construction Formula Generator Training by General

The efficiency:

1. With the Construction Formula Generator, the estimator will able to fulfill the construction spreadsheet within minutes.

2. Instead of recalling an entire list of formulas, it simply point and click to build the spreadsheet. With formulas for all trades, it's a tool every estimator can use.
