Ground-breaking software that generates an instant cost breakdown from your plan

  • 23 May 2018

The new BuildingWorks integrated software platform sees cost and energy performance feedback appear on-screen simultaneously as you draw your conversion, extension or new build plan using its comprehensive BIM objects library from just £58/month + VAT.

Literally as you draw each part of the building, specifying from the fantastic on-board rates library what it’s built of, the software is generating a detailed cost breakdown.

Massive up-to-date BIM Library

The BuildingWorks BIM object library has more than 15000 objects and 5000 rates that are all available in the UK and price checked regularly. Each object contains an image and valuable information including cost, size, thermal performance and COSHH. The software uses the data to automatically cost the project as you draw the plan.
