HVAC calcs in bluebeam

Hello,

Thought I'd share my method of calculating velocities/pressure drops/etc across ductwork and pipework using Bluebeam. See screenshot attached. Some minor improvements to Bluebeam could take this to the next level:

  • to be able to move labels with more precision (when you hold shown the shift key you can move labels but they never quite end up where the mouse cursor is)
  • multi line labels - would be great if "enter" could be added into labels to break lines
  • line width function of input value - polyline sketch to scale taking formula to set line width would be awesome
  • copy/paste custom attributes similar to format painter

Thank you,

Adam
