Could someone guide me on how to initiate and complete a Secondary Steel (For an Example: Bent Plate, Angles, CMU Wall Supports, Sill Angle….) project using Bluebeam? A video tutorial would be preferable for better understanding.
This isn't a complete answer, but we have worked with clients in steel on various things in the past. We don't have any videos or classes recorded that are specifically on steel, but you can check out our regular quantity takeoff courses to get a better idea of what you can create with measurements and custom columns to get you there. Don't forget that everyone with a seat in Revu has access to Bluebeam University, which has both self-paced courses and live training. Another recommendation I have for you is to check out the Revu Custom Libraries. There, you'll find a welding toolset and a structural steel profile that includes more specialized toolsets that may help you with this project.
@Gopi J , your best bet is to make your own toolset. it takes time to set up but will ultimately speed things up in the future. Especially if you do any work on older steel structures like bridges as many of the old WF beams or Tied-Arch built structures, rather than more up-to-date structures use different values. Mine looks like this ↓
Be sure to set the measurements "Depth" Values to ones that will work with what you are trying to do in the measurements Tab.
Good luck and Happy Bluebeaming!
You also might try checking out our next Workflow Talk: Steel Takeoff Kit on 7/17 from 3-4pm ET and talk to the Bluebeam consulting team about this topic, they might have some tips for you too!
Thankyou so much Ashley Cox. i will try your recommendations.
Thank you so much James😊

Is anyone else having issues using Bluebeam Cloud in the field on their iPads? I understand they are discontinuing Revu on iPad, but the features aren't even close.

I do a good amount of takeoff in bluebeam and noticed an annoying issue after updating to 21.7. It used to be that you could use the CNTRL + Shift keys to do a straight takeoff line (shift key) and avoid any control lines or points on the drawing (CNTRL key) to get to a precise spot on the drawing. After the update, the…
