Concrete Takeoff Software
Measure slab areas, linear footage, counts, and concrete-related quantities quickly so your team can price pours, foundations, and site work with more confidence.
- Slabs
- Footings

How zzTakeoff works for Concrete
A simple three-step workflow to move from plans to estimate-ready quantities.
Upload your plans
Measure quantities
Price it & bid it
Faster concrete takeoffs. Accurate bids.
zzTakeoff helps concrete estimators move faster through plan sets and keep material and labor calculations easier to review.
- Measure slabs, footings, foundations, and flatwork right off the plans
- Auto-calculate cubic yards, rebar, and formwork from your measurements
- Price out material, labor, and equipment in one place
Stay on Top of Revisions
When drawings shift, your team needs a faster way to review what changed. zzTakeoff makes it easy to compare affected sheets and verify concrete quantities so you do not have to start from scratch.
- Overlay old and new drawings to spot every change instantly
- See exactly where footings moved or slab shifted
- Update your quantities in minutes instead of starting over
Structure Your Estimate by Scope of Work
Organize your concrete takeoffs the way you bid the work, so quantities roll up into a breakdown that is easy to review, price, and hand off.
- Phase your takeoff by zone or pour schedule
- Categorize by site concrete and building concrete
- Itemize your bid breakdown to match how the GC wants to see it

Why Concrete contractors choose zzTakeoff
Use a simpler digital workflow to capture quantities, review scope, and keep your estimating process consistent.
Volume math done for you
Enter depth or thickness once and area takeoffs auto-convert to cubic yards for footings, slabs, walls, and piers. No spreadsheet gymnastics or math errors.
One measurement, multiple quantities
A single slab takeoff can drive concrete volume, rebar and mesh, formwork, vapor barrier, and finishing labor via assemblies. Measure once, quantify everything.
Fast tools for repetitive structural elements
Count tools plus duplicate and convert features handle spread footings, piers, and columns that repeat across a foundation plan.
Search the plans, don't hunt
Instantly find every callout like "4000 PSI" or "sealed concrete" across a full drawing set instead of scanning sheet by sheet.
Bid more jobs in less time
AI auto-naming, sheet numbering, and auto-scaling cut plan setup from hours to minutes, so you get more bids out the door and a better hit rate.
Collaborate on big pours
Estimator, PM, and field super can work the same takeoff simultaneously. Split up a large foundation package and finish same-day.
Handle revisions without redoing work
Overlay and compare when Addendum 3 moves the grade beams, then adjust instead of starting over.
Cloud and mobile access from anywhere
Check quantities from the truck, the pre-bid walk, or the batch plant on your phone, tablet, Mac, or PC. No install, no VPN, no waiting to get back to the office.
Easy switch from PlanSwift, Bluebeam & OST
Import your existing PlanSwift and Bluebeam jobs, and bring your PlanSwift and OST templates with you, so you can hit the ground running instead of rebuilding your library from scratch.
User-Friendly for Heavy Commercial“As a former PlanSwift user this is completely user-friendly. You can create and force things the way you want them to go without any coding knowledge. As a heavy commercial contractor, this helps get any demo, grading and paving, site, and structural concrete work estimated with confidence and ease. I look forward to seeing this software grow and adapt to their clients' needs.”
Concrete estimating software FAQs
You can measure slabs, sidewalks, footings, walls, curbs, columns, caissons, and virtually any other concrete scope to generate organized material, labor, and equipment quantities that are easier to review and estimate.
Yes. You can keep takeoff items grouped by area, pour, phase, level, or scope so totals are easier to validate before pricing.
When updated drawings are issued, zzTakeoff's overlay feature lets you compare the new plans with the previous version to quickly identify what has changed. You can then update only the affected takeoffs and quantities instead of remeasuring the entire project, saving time and reducing the chance of missing revisions.
Yes. Measure slab areas, footing lengths, and other concrete elements directly from the plans, then apply thicknesses, slopes or other factors to automatically calculate concrete volumes. These quantities can then be used to estimate your material, labor, and equipment costs.
Measure the concrete elements on your plans, then apply material, labor, and equipment assemblies for rebar, welded wire mesh, formwork and any other item you need. zzTakeoff automatically calculates the required quantities, including waste factors, so you can build accurate estimates with less manual work.
Yes. zzTakeoff lets you organize structural and site concrete into separate groups. For example, you can keep foundations, walls, and elevated slabs separate from curbs, gutters, sidewalks, and paving, making your estimates easier to review and manage.
Because every pour is measured and grouped, you can apply waste percentages by pour type, such as more for irregular flatwork and less for formed walls, instead of one blanket factor, and see exactly which quantities each assumption touches.
Yes. Crews use it on commercial foundations and tilt-up work as well as residential slabs, driveways, and patios. The same measure-group-review workflow scales from a single driveway to a multi-phase structural package.
Yes. Measure footings and slabs on structural sheets and site concrete on civil sheets within the same project. Quantities stay tied to their source sheets, so cross-checking dimensions between disciplines is faster.
Yes. The 14-day free trial needs no credit card. Upload the drawings for a live bid, take off the slabs and footings, and compare the process against your current method on a real deadline.
