Structural Steel Takeoff Services

Detailed Structural Steel Estimating & Material Takeoffs

Steel is bought by the ton and installed by the piece, and your estimate has to speak both languages. Our structural steel estimating services list beams, columns, joists, decking, and miscellaneous metals by shape, size, and weight, with connections, anchors, and fasteners quantified alongside the members they join. Every steel takeoff arrives as a member schedule ready for fabricator pricing and an erector takeoff ready for installation bids, with tonnage summaries by shape for mill orders and piece counts for crane picks. Delegated connection design, joist layouts, and miscellaneous metals are never blended into the frame tonnage, so buyout stays clean.

What We Measure

  • Wide-flange beams, columns & girders by shape, size & weight
  • Joists & joist girders per layout, bridging & accessories
  • Metal decking: roof & floor deck by gauge, profile & finish
  • HSS columns, braces, angles, channels & plates
  • Connection material: shear plates, moment connections & bolts
  • Anchor bolts, base plates, embeds & grout
  • Stairs, rails, ladders & miscellaneous metals
  • Tonnage summaries by shape for mill and service-center pricing
  • Piece counts & crane pick data for erector bids
  • Shop primer, galvanizing & finish paint allowances
  • Welding, bolting & field connection labor
  • Delegated design coordination allowances
