Estimating software by trade
Every trade measures a plan set differently: HVAC counts equipment and measures duct, drywall measures wall area, sitework measures cubic yards. These guides cover what each trade takes off, how the estimate is built, where it usually goes wrong, and which software serves it. AmpCount itself only counts electrical devices and fixtures, and each page says so.
