About Building Works
There is nothing like it on the market. It’s time to digitally transform your business. You might call it Practical BIM. We call it intelligent integrated design and estimating with Full Bill of Quantities. If you’re currently producing your project designs and costings separately, then think again. If you’re a builder, developer or designer this is just what you’ve been waiting for. BuildingWorks is a low cost subscription-based, fully integrated CAD and estimating software platform. Made for residential new build homes, extensions, conversions and property refurbishment. As you draft building plans the software simultaneously estimates the costs of the project. Its library of intelligent practical BIM products is packed with real materials and objects and rich manufacturer product data. Nothing else on the market shows you the immediate impact of your design and specification decisions on project cost and energy performance. And there’s a QS module for a full Bill of Quantities.
