1. Project Overview
A certain demolition and resettlement housing project has 15 single buildings in the upper part of the entire project, each with 22 floors. The node method is common, and the total construction area is 158,400m2.
2. Introduction to the author
Liu Gong, a senior estimator of a consulting company in Zhejiang, has been engaged in engineering cost work for 12 years
3. Project difficulties
1. The wall tie bars use L-shaped iron parts, and the number of iron parts needs to be counted
2. The top of the air-enhancing block is filled with foaming agent, and the engineering quantity needs to be calculated according to the actual length
3. On the floors of public halls and elevator halls, the area of the bricks facing the openings under the doors must be counted. There are a large number of cantilevered beams on the balcony. To ensure accurate engineering quantities, the beam ends need to be pulled to the outside of the opposite beam, one by one, which is cumbersome and error-prone.
5. For the quota names of doors and windows, if you want to order them by component names, naming them one by one is large and error-prone.
6. The node methods of different buildings are the same, but each building needs to redefine the node methods. There are many nodes, and the node attributes are constantly defined
. 4. Use the software
Pinming BIM civil steel bar measurement software is a measurement software that integrates civil engineering and steel bar engineering volume calculations. Through the self-developed R-cad recognition technology, the rapid transformation and layout of two-dimensional drawings into three-dimensional components is realized; the complete component types and perfect calculation rules assist in rapid modeling and output, solving the problems of low modeling efficiency and inaccurate output of civil engineering estimators, and continuously improving work efficiency.
uses the efficient commands (L iron parts/flexible material caulking/door downstairs floor layout/area arrangement/one-click sets of quota /favorite components/component favorites ) in Pinming civil engineering steel measurement software to greatly improve work efficiency and shorten project measurement time.
5. High-efficiency functions
1, L-shaped iron parts
"L-shaped iron parts" usage experience:
I used to calculate the wall tie bars based on the tonnage of the steel bars, but this set of drawings requires counting the number of L-shaped iron parts, which makes me a little confused. Although I understand the business, I can calculate the number of steel bars by dividing the net height of the brick wall by the spacing, but I am having trouble counting them quickly? Calculating it by hand would take too much time and may not be accurate. Then I asked Pinming's technical staff and got their advice, and then I realized that the software can handle the output in such a convenient way.
Through the automatic arrangement command of "masonry reinforcement" component in the software, the "L-shaped iron component" components of the entire building can be arranged, and finally the quantity can be produced. My eyes turn white when I calculate by hand, but the software can solve the problem in just one second. Technology really liberates the labor force.

2, flexible material caulking
Experience of using "flexible material caulking":
Traditional brick wall tops are made of slanted bricks, but this project requires the use of foaming agent for filling. In the past, when encountering this situation, wire components were used to stretch the length, but the calculation was not accurate, and the deductions for some components such as doors, windows, and structural columns were not considered.
asked customer service about a good way to quickly arrange the output of foaming agents. Only after guidance from customer service did he know that the software can output by default and will deduct the door, window and column components. Among the calculation items for brick walls, there is an item called "flexible material caulking", which can be measured by setting a quota. If you don't want to apply for a quota, you can also directly measure it in kind, whichever is more convenient.

3, door downstairs floor layout
"Door downstairs ground" user experience:
Click the "door downstairs ground" command, frame the door opening components, and the layout is completed. This part of the output problem is solved in two steps. The entire project, 15 individual buildings, can be operated in one minute, saving a day.
shared a little tip. Because of the block area under the door, there is no need to consider the area of the leveling layer. Only the block area is calculated. It is best to distinguish the component names of all the block parts on the floor under the door from the ordinary ones to facilitate the later distinction.

4, area arrangement
"Region arrangement" experience:
Click the "Region arrangement" command to select the frame beam of the current floor, and the end of the cantilevered beam will automatically extend to the outside of the opposite beam. All cantilevered extension problems on this layer can be solved in 1 second. Compared with manually removing the distance between the beam ends one by one, the efficiency is quickly improved.

5, one-click set quota
"One-click set quota" experience:
is used to setting quota output, but when setting quotas for doors and windows, I always hope that the name of the door and window will be written after the quota name to facilitate the distinction and statistics of the later project quantities. Now you can use the "one-click set quota" command, enter "=@" after the quota name, and then apply it. The quota name in the door and window details will automatically note the component name, reducing the tedious operation of adding one by one.

6, favorite components/component favorites
"Collection components/component favorites" usage experience:
This set of drawings has 15 single buildings, and the node methods are the same. When modeling the 1# building, all node sections are defined. After the decoration methods are matched correctly, the nodes are collected through the "Collect components" command.
When opening other building numbers, use the "Component Favorites" command to apply the collected nodes to the current model, so that all node attributes of other building numbers can be quickly copied to this building number.
achieves the effect of building a new node and using it together for 15 buildings, avoiding the duplication of different building numbers, redefining node sections, and matching methods.
