Learn how to calculate the quantity of your signage projects more quickly
It's time to calculate the quantities! In signage projects, as with any other type of project, this part can be daunting if we don't work in the correct way or if we don't use tools that help us in the process, such as a quantitative spreadsheet.
Quantitative Spreadsheet – Seabra
With this in mind, we at SEABRA have developed a quantitative spreadsheet for projects. road signs and we have made it available for download! Our spreadsheet has been divided into Vertical and Horizontal Signage, and with it you can automate the calculation of the area of the signs and lanes, in addition to automatically inserting representation images according to the object code.
We have prepared an explanatory video that explains the correct way to use the spreadsheet! In it, we offer some tips to optimize your quantitative work and make it more assertive and enjoyable.
THE quantitative of your project is a very serious matter! It is from this that the executor will have an idea of how much it will cost to carry out the work, which materials to buy, which services to hire, among others. Because of this, it is essential to optimize this part of our work.
Although quantity spreadsheets are an excellent tool for organizing and calculating quantities in signage projects, it's important to highlight that this process can be even more efficient when integrated directly into the project environment.
Specialized tools, such as sinC, These tools allow for the automatic generation of signage quantities directly from the design, eliminating the need for manual data entry, reducing errors, and ensuring complete consistency between the project and the budgeting data. In this way, quantity takeoff ceases to be an isolated step and becomes a natural part of the project development workflow.
Frequently Asked Questions:
How do you calculate the quantity needed for a road signage project?
The quantity required for a road signage project can be calculated by identifying and measuring all the project elements, such as signs, lane markings, legends, and safety devices. Quantitative spreadsheets help organize this information, allowing for a more structured calculation of areas, quantities, and types of signage.
Is it possible to automatically generate quantities from the project?
Yes. With the use of specialized software such as sinC, quantities can be automatically generated from the signage implemented in the project, ensuring complete alignment between design, bill of materials, and budgeting, as well as significantly reducing the time spent on this step.
