Ferra / Steel Takeoff

Complete Structural Takeoffs Without the Manual Work

Ferra automatically detects beams, columns, and structural scope across full drawing sets, reducing manual effort and improving accuracy.
Manual Takeoff
Slow, fragmented, and easy to get wrong.
  • Constant sheet-to-sheet navigation
  • Manual counting and interpretation
  • Inconsistent scales across drawings
  • Risk of missed structural elements

Real takeoffs. Not approximations.

Beam & Column Detection

Every structural element flagged across the sheet. Orange = beams, blue = columns — classified and counted automatically.

Column Continuity

Plan view and elevation linked automatically. Column height resolved without manual cross-referencing.

Automatic Hyperlinking

Elements tagged with detail references are linked automatically. One click jumps directly to the connection detail.

Multi-Sheet Navigation

All the sheets organized into a single navigable system. Switch between sheets without losing context or element tracking.
