Wall Footing

Advanced Takeoff Automation for Wall Footings

Eliminate the hassle of manually calculating continuous foundations. The Wall Footing Script by CivilScript Labs turns your linear PlanSwift measurements into a comprehensive estimating engine. By defining the cross-section and reinforcement parameters once, the tool instantly generates all required material quantities along the entire length of your takeoff.

Key Features & Output:

• Universal Unit Conversion: Instantly toggle your final takeoff summary between Imperial and Metric systems. Export your data in Yards (YD), Feet (FT), Centimeters (CM), Meters (M), Pounds (LB), or Tons.

• Advanced Excavation Metrics: Automatically computes true excavation volumes along your linear takeoff by factoring in the footing dimensions, customizable working space clearance, and soil slope angles.

• Rebar Detailing: Granular control over longitudinal and transverse bars, including custom end hooks and automated corner lap splices. Simply input the number of corners and select standard splice lengths (36db, 48db) or a custom value to calculate the exact ‘L’ shape corner reinforcement.

• Formwork Area: Calculates the exact forming area required for both sides of the continuous footing automatically.

• Concrete Volume: Automatically computes total concrete volumes based on your linear takeoff length, footing width, depth, and custom waste percentages.

• Automated Setup: Includes our custom .exe installer for a seamless, one-minute integration into your PlanSwift local library.
