You have arrived at the website of E-Quantities Ltd. providers of computer
generated quantities to the UK construction industry since 2003.
Read on to find out more about computer generated quantities, and follow the
links to our freeware download area to get some useful QS and Estimation
utilities.
BQFilter is a useful
utility to convert your Bills of Quantity files between a number
of different file formats including native Calculix, MS Excel, native ConQuest
and the industry standard CITE format.
We have made this utility available as freeware (privately AND commercially)
to promote the use of
electronic Bills of Quantities. Other functionality will be added as we find a
need, so check back regularly for upgrades to the BQFilter program.
Our other freeware offering is QSOnscreen. A utility which we use to measure areas
and lengths by outlining over screen images of drawings. In "cut and
fill" mode you can enter existing and finished levels onto your outlined
areas then calculate earthworks and disposal volumes at the press of a button.
If you check out the competition, to get functionality like this you can expect
a bill well into the £000's usually accompanied by an annual support charge.
You can use QSOnscreen privately AND commercially for FREE... All we ask in return is if you find it useful,
let someone else know who might also find it useful. If you want to read about
the linear and bi-linear interpolations and extrapolations involved in the cut
and fill calculations, it is all explained in the introductory
tutorial which accompanies the program.
All our production quantities projects are measured using Highbrave Ltd.'s 
software on FreeBSD which is equally accessible in real-time to workstations
within our local area network or remotely from anywhere with an Internet
connection.
Also under a FREEWARE licence, you can download a fully functional version
of Calculix with no restriction on time limit or functionality. So you don't
have to take our word that it's an excellent QS program. You can try it for
yourself. Read on for
more details...
