BIM Q&A: Commonly Used BIM Measurement Software in Engineering Cost Management

Engineering cost management companies have a variety of BIM measurement software options currently available in the market:

BIM Q&A | What are the BIM measurement software? Several BIM based measurement software commonly used by engineering cost management companies

① Guanglianda BIM Steel Bar Calculation Software

The GGJ2013 BIM steel bar quantity calculation software from Guanglianda offers a convenient solution for calculating steel bar quantities in engineering cost assessments. It summarizes and calculates steel bars used in beams, slabs, and columns, providing a clear 3D visualization of the steel bar layout. The model is highly visual and intuitive, accurately displaying the distribution and positioning of steel bars.

This software supports integration with Guanglianda’s structural construction drawing software GICD. (GICD2013 is a BIM-based intelligent design system for structural construction drawings and a key component of Guanglianda’s BIM strategy.) The GICD product delivers true “BIM + intelligent” design capabilities by connecting upstream and downstream structural design data, significantly improving quality and efficiency for engineers. Importing models based on the flat reinforcement method helps save time by avoiding repeated modeling and reinforcement processes.

② Guanglianda BIM Civil Engineering Quantity Calculation

Guanglianda’s GCL2013 civil engineering calculation software supports importing models from mainstream BIM platforms. It can read the widely used international IFC data standard files with a single click. To address IFC’s broad scope and lack of targeting, Guanglianda developed GFC, which enables one-click import of 3D models created in Revit directly into the GCL2013 software. This facilitates seamless format exchange between Revit and GCL.

Moreover, the Guanglianda BIM steel bar calculation software and this civil engineering calculation software are interoperable, allowing models to be imported between them. This feature enhances modeling efficiency and workflow speed.

③ Guanglianda BIM Civil Engineering Measurement Platform

This comprehensive BIM measurement software combines both steel bar measurement and civil engineering quantity measurement into a single platform. Its key feature is the ability to draw both steel reinforcement and civil engineering components within the software. These components include relevant information for both disciplines, eliminating the need to import steel reinforcement and civil engineering models separately. This integration significantly improves efficiency for cost estimators working on quantity calculations.

④ Guanglianda Cloud Pricing Platform

Guanglianda Cloud Pricing Platform GCCP5.0 is one of the most widely used pricing software solutions today. Its primary functions include data preparation, review, accumulation, analysis, mining, and reuse during both preliminary budgeting and final settlement phases. Launched in 2015, the platform leverages big data and cloud computing technologies to provide fully integrated pricing services and comprehensive process coverage, making cost management more efficient and intelligent.

⑤ Master Luban Civil Engineering

Master Luban Civil Engineering is a 3D computational modeling software built on the AutoCAD platform. It reflects the current and future needs of engineering cost calculation in China, accurately calculating quantities based on provincial quota calculation rules. The software produces intuitive, precise, and efficient quantity calculation models and outputs various formats of calculation results.

⑥ Master Luban Steel Reinforcement

Master Luban Steel Calculation Software supports converting 2D CAD drawings into 3D models, enabling direct drawing and assisted drawing in multiple formats, including tables. Following national standards and flat method mapping, the software can automatically deduct quantities after drawing completion. It also offers 3D steel bar visualization, making the process intuitive, convenient, and efficient.
