Install PrecisionQuant Pro, select your language, configure the database location, and activate the demo version for 10 days. This first tutorial prepares the construction takeoff software so you can start creating projects and working toward accurate quantity takeoff and estimates.
Learn how to enter your license key and complete the permanent activation of PrecisionQuant Pro. This video shows the License Activation Wizard, online activation, license summary, available activations, and expiration date so the estimating software is ready for project work.
Get familiar with the main interface of PrecisionQuant Pro: the Drawing Workspace, Ribbon, status bar, project panel, summary panel, drawing tools, and help system. A practical overview before using the software to measure quantities and prepare construction cost estimates.
Learn how BOQ Item catalogs are organized in PrecisionQuant Pro and why they are essential before creating a project. This tutorial covers catalogs, chapters, BOQ Items, sample catalogs, and Microsoft Excel import for a more structured quantity takeoff workflow.
Create your first project, assign a BOQ Item catalog, add Project Files, and load drawings into the Drawing Workspace before you start measuring quantities.
Use layer controls, drawing visibility, selectable entities, Scale Zones, and scale verification tools before creating your first Measurements.
Create your first Measurement and see how one linear Measurement can feed multiple BOQ Items, such as block walls and finishes. This tutorial shows how PrecisionQuant Pro connects Measurements, parameters, and estimate items to support a more consistent quantity takeoff process.
Create a door Measurement as a Void Emitter and define its area so wall-related BOQ Items can receive automatic deductions during takeoff.
See how door voids are deducted from wall and finish Measurements, how to find similar drawing entities, and how to review the traceability of the results.
Create flooring areas and baseboard Measurements using closed polygons, rectangles, contour detection, conversion tools, and automatic length void deductions.
