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.

Description

Tagsight serves as the authoritative repository for engineering data, efficiently processing your entire set of drawings to compile essential elements such as the instrument index, I/O list, equipment list, line list, and valve list necessary for project execution. It can interpret various documents including P&IDs, single-line diagrams, loop diagrams, datasheets, and cable and junction-box schedules, regardless of whether they are scanned sheets or CAD-exported PDFs. Each tag is systematically categorized according to the standards already utilized in the drawings, which may include ISA 5.1, KKS, IEC 81346, NORSOK, DIN 19227, or specific conventions set by the operating house. An engineer meticulously verifies or amends each entry before any data is finalized, ensuring that the register is thoroughly reviewed rather than taken for granted. Tagsight has the capability to export data in multiple formats including Excel, CSV, TIA Portal XML for Siemens S7, Rockwell L5X for Studio 5000, PLCCreator, DEXPI, JSON, and annotated PDF, facilitating smooth data transitions. Additionally, it offers revision comparison features to ensure that change management reviews highlight only the modifications made. A REST API and an MCP server enable seamless integration with the broader toolchain, enhancing workflows and fostering collaboration across teams. This interconnected approach not only streamlines processes but also improves accuracy and efficiency in data management.
