Our estimates comply with the standards
Our estimates include a detailed breakdown of metals and steel, covering materials, plates, connectors, accessories, and erection costs to enhance planning, procurement, and cost control while minimizing storage needs.
All items are quantified in an Excel sheet with marked-up plans and PDF files. Estimates can be formatted as unit price, lump sum, or cost-plus, based on your requirements. We quantify the following materials:
- Fasteners
- DrivewaysFastenings
- Rebar
- Steel framing
- Metal joists
- Metal decking
- Stud framing
- Dome structures
- Access ramps
- Stairs
- Load-bearing

REBAR & STRUCTURAL STEEL ESTIMATING SERVICES
With the evolving construction industry and increasing competition, accurate estimates are crucial to avoid overbidding or underbidding.
At Insight Estimation, we provide precise rebar and reinforcing steel takeoffs, ensuring detailed estimates for materials, accessories, and erection costs. Our expert rebar estimators handle projects of all sizes and complexities, including bridges, residential and commercial buildings, industrial structures, infrastructures, culverts, retaining walls, and wing walls.
We utilize 3D model technology for steel estimating, offering a clear scope of work and precise cost analysis. Our rebar estimating deliverables include:
- Contract plans & numbers
- Take-off Quantities
- Rebar Weight
- Structural Activity Codes (SAC)
- Part Codes (Rebar, wire mesh)
- Steel grade (e.g. ASTM A108)
- Structure wise or scope wise bid item number
