Concrete Takeoff Software: Slabs, Footings, and Real Cubic Yards
Concrete lives on the structural sheets, and the money lives in the volumes. Foreman AI measures slab areas, footing runs, and true cubic-yard dig volumes — with depth and swell factors — on calibrated sheets, while the AI reads the structural general notes, footing schedules, and specs that decide your mix designs, reinforcing, and finishes.

Takeoff Tools
What a concrete takeoff looks like here.
Area
Slabs, paving, and flatwork traced in SF at real sheet scale.
Linear
Footings, grade beams, curbs, and thickened edges in LF.
Cubic yards
Trace an excavation outline, set depth and swell factor, get bank yards and truck (loose) yards for hauling.
Cut/Fill
Trace existing and proposed contours on grading sheets and compute cut CY, fill CY, and net export with a heat map.
Why Foreman AI
The AI reads the set. You keep control of the number.
Verified, auditable measurements
Quantities live on calibrated sheets as named objects you can see and correct — not black-box totals from a chat window.
Conflicts flagged before they cost you
Cross-discipline analysis surfaces the places the drawings disagree — the stuff that becomes RFIs and change orders.
Quantities straight into pricing
Takeoff objects flow into the budget builder, priced from your cost catalog, company history, AI market estimates, or web pricing.
FAQ
Concrete takeoff questions
Can it calculate concrete volumes from plans?
Yes — trace a slab or dig outline, set the depth, and Takeoff Studio computes area × depth ÷ 27 with a swell factor for haul-off. For grading work, the Cut/Fill tool builds existing and proposed surfaces from the contours and differences them into cut, fill, and net export.
Does it read structural general notes?
Yes. Mix strengths, reinforcing requirements, cover, testing — ask in plain English and get the answer with the sheet or spec section cited.
What about earthwork on a hillside site?
That's what the Cut/Fill tool is for: trace the existing contours, then the proposed, drop spot grades, and compute cut/fill volumes with a color heat map — the same math an earthwork service charges for.
