What is Carlson Takeoff?
Carlson Takeoff is a specialized application that facilitates the calculation of cut and fill volumes while preparing layout or machine control data, allowing for project estimations through the digitization of paper plans, the use of PDFs, or the handling of electronic CAD files. It is available in two distinct editions: Takeoff OEM and Takeoff Suite. The Takeoff OEM variant features an integrated AutoCAD® engine and encompasses all functionalities of the Takeoff Suite, which either necessitates a separate AutoCAD® purchase or includes built-in IntelliCAD®. The Takeoff Suite is composed of multiple modules such as Carlson CADnet, Carlson Trench, Carlson GeoTech, and Carlson Construction, all of which are fully integrated with Carlson Civil and Hydrology to meet a wide array of client needs. Notably, Carlson Takeoff is the only estimating software that can function on either the AutoCAD or IntelliCAD platform. By working directly within the DWG environment, it offers users a pronounced "CAD Advantage," significantly enhancing the precision and efficiency of estimations based on electronic files supplied by engineers. This seamless integration not only streamlines workflows but also fosters improved collaboration among all parties involved in construction projects, ultimately leading to more successful outcomes. The comprehensive features and user-friendly design make Carlson Takeoff an indispensable tool for professionals in the industry.
