PLACE  ·  Concrete take-off

CreteFlo

The volume is the easy half. Getting the deductions, the grade and the ancillaries right is the job.

CreteFlo owns everything to do with the concrete itself: volume, mix, grade and exposure, pour sequence, finishing, curing, jointing, testing and the bill of quantities. Steel belongs to ReoFlo and formwork to FormFlo — one owner per number, so nothing is counted twice.

Volumes are net. Pods and voids come out, beams already inside a slab are not added again, and set-downs, thickenings, upstands and kerbs go in. Pods are a product line with a count, not a cubic metre.

Grade comes off the schedule

Exposure classification drives minimum grade, and the difference between an internal slab and a coastal splash zone is real money and real durability. CreteFlo reads the grade from the engineer’s schedule. Where the schedule says refer-to-plan, the line is tagged as such rather than filled with a plausible number.

Pier lengths founded to rock stay provisional until the geotechnical result exists. That is flagged, not averaged.

The ancillaries are always scheduled

Membrane, sand blinding, curing, saw cuts, water stops, sealant, pump prime and waste are the recurring silent miss on a concrete take-off. They are on every package by default, each with supply-by against it.

What you get

  • One tabbed workbook: Summary, Mix Schedule, Pour Schedule, Pour Plan, Concrete BOQ, Finishing & Curing, Test Plan and Embodied Carbon.
  • The pour schedule and pour plan are the concrete equivalent of ReoFlo’s bar schedule and marking plan — so the job can be reconciled pour for pour as it is placed.

CreteFlo is a take-off engine, not a design tool. It measures what your engineer has documented. It does not size members, check capacity or certify. Where the documentation is silent or contradictory you get a written query naming the sheet and the missing datum — the rest of the job is released while it is open.

Structural set, current revision, PDF is fine. We will come back with the scope we can measure, anything we need answered, and a price before we start.
