Bluebeam for Takeoffs: Simple Quantification Without Full Estimating Software

Earn 1 AIA LU.

How can project teams generate fast, reliable quantities without investing in complex estimating platforms or rebuilding workflows from scratch?

In this webinar, discover how Bluebeam Revu can be used as a powerful, accessible tool for performing takeoffs, tracking quantities, and organizing measurement data directly from construction documents. Learn how teams across the AEC industry are leveraging tools they already own to improve preconstruction speed, increase accuracy, and maintain a clear audit trail—all within a familiar PDF-based environment.

Join David Spergel, a Bluebeam Certified Instructor and Support Representative at GRAITEC—a Bluebeam Sapphire Partner—as he demonstrates practical workflows for turning drawings into actionable quantity data, reducing manual calculations, and creating repeatable processes that support both small estimates and large-scale projects.

Learning Objectives

• Calibrate drawings correctly to ensure accurate measurements from the start
• Use measurement tools to capture lengths, areas, counts, and volumes efficiently
• Apply Dynamic Fill to accelerate complex space and material takeoffs
• Organize data using custom columns, markups, and the Markups List for clear quantity tracking
• Export takeoff data to Excel for estimating, reporting, and downstream workflows
