What you can do

What you can do with Building Measurements

01 / 03

Measure on the model

Review roof planes, areas, and physical edge details on the model. Review available roof measurements on the 3D model from a property address. See roof planes and physical edges alongside the structure they belong to, so each dimension has a clear place on the building.

This helps with:

  • Roof areas and slopes
  • Ridges and other physical edges
  • Measurements in building context

Check the geometry in context as you collect the numbers needed for the job.

Capture useful dimensions

Use available roof measurements to prepare an estimate or material takeoff. Different roof jobs need different dimensions. Review the available roof areas, edge lengths, and slopes that matter to your estimate, with the 3D building model alongside the numbers.

This helps with:

  • Roof area for material planning
  • Physical edges for scope checks
  • Slope and roof shape for context

Focus on useful dimensions rather than collecting figures with no clear purpose.

Keep measurements connected

Keep each roof dimension connected to the building you inspected. When everyone works from the same building model, it is easier to check where a roof measurement came from. Return to the model to review the roof before using a dimension in an estimate or exported summary.

This helps with:

  • Review the measured roof location
  • Compare related roof dimensions
  • Carry available measurements into later work

Keep the building and its measurements together through the project.

In practice

Roof measurements with the building in view

Submit a property address and review available roof areas, slopes, ridges, and physical edges on the completed 3D model. Explore the roof, collect the dimensions you need, and prepare your estimate remotely.
