Description
CADsnip serves as an online markup utility designed specifically for architects, engineers, contractors, and other professionals within the construction industry who require an effective means to convey alterations on drawings. Users can easily select a segment of a drawing using Win+Shift+S, paste it into the provided editor, and enhance it with annotations such as text, revision clouds, dimensions, hatches, numbered comments, and stamps. Additionally, it allows users to open a PDF page for annotation purposes. Once the markups are complete, they can be copied for use in emails or Microsoft Teams, or saved as PNG files, while editable projects can be preserved in CADsnip's proprietary .cadsnip format for future modifications. Users can choose from Light, Dark, and CAD themes, and the web application is compatible with browsers like Chrome, Edge, and Firefox. There is no need for registration, and all images are stored locally on the user's device. Furthermore, a desktop version for Windows is currently being developed to expand its accessibility. This tool is designed to streamline collaboration and improve communication among construction professionals.
Description
Excalibur View is a construction-focused drawing viewer, markup, and takeoff software developed by a structural steel estimator actively working in the field.
The markups created are standard PDF annotations, ensuring that any set annotated within the program can be opened seamlessly in applications like Bluebeam Revu or Adobe, retaining all formatting and positions. It also supports the import of Revu .bpx profiles and .btx tool sets, complete with their associated tools, custom columns, and unit weights.
This software empowers users to measure length, area, count, volume, and angles at the specified scale, with each tool incorporating its own unit weights, allowing for tonnage calculations on the takeoff while drawing beams. The Shop List feature efficiently converts marked-up items into a cut list, detailing stock lengths, saw kerfs, and leftover drops.
Excalibur View is available for free to individual users, including for commercial purposes, and requires no account or expiration date. For offices, Excalibur View Office is offered at a one-time fee of $250 per seat on owned machines, with optional updates at $100 per seat annually.
Notably, the software operates entirely offline; drawings, markups, and takeoffs remain securely stored on your hardware without any cloud integration. Furthermore, the software's source code is available under the Elastic License 2.0, allowing for further customization and use.
