SUMMARY:From Redlines to Finished CAD Work in Bluebeam Revu
DESCRIPTION:Redlines\, Markups\, As-Builts\, Submittals\, field notes – whatever it is you work with\, that data needs to make its way into the final CAD design one way or another. Most of us struggle\, using scans\, printed paper\, or just hoping the CAD folks look at our PDF markups. Wouldn’t it be nice to take your markup information right from Bluebeam Revu\, the system we all use\, and be able to bring it directly into any CAD system as real vector/line data at the right scale and location? We can show you how to make that happen. \nZenTek Consultants\, your certified Bluebeam Partner\, and nationally recognized experts on all design/build technologies\, will walk you through the process. This three (3) hour online class lets students learn\, right from their own desk. A live instructor will explain the detailed functions\, and address questions as the class progresses. \n​​Note: This class is for Bluebeam Revu for PC\, not the iPad. Instructor will be using Bluebeam Revu Complete 21 and some tools shown may not be available in Revu Standard or CAD. Looking for this class in Bluebeam Revu 2017\, 2018\, 2019\, or 20? Contact us to make arrangements. \nRecording: Registrants for this course will receive access to a recording of each session for 48 consecutive hours. Access will start the next business day after the session ends. \nYou’ll learn how to: \n\nWork With Layers and Display Controls\nIsolate Layers and Export Data\nImport Data to CAD as PDF Underlay\nImport Data to CAD as Vector Linework\nAlign/Scale Data in Layout Space\nUse Change Space to Move Data to Model Space

SUMMARY:Contractor BI Webinar
DESCRIPTION:No industry deals with as much raw data as the construction world does. You have to track costs\, schedules\, billings\, bids\, sales\, customer requests\, and a hundred other details that vary from project to project. Worst of all\, that information can reside in multiple sources: some in accounting systems\, construction management systems\, a CRM\, or even in Excel files. Putting that data together for just one job can take days. Putting it together to get a picture of the whole company can be next to impossible! That’s where ContractorBI comes in! ZenTek Consultants\, your premiere Construction Technology Consultant\, invites you to a free 30 minute webinar where we show you how ContractorBI works\, right out of the box with 50+ standard reports\, and how you can customize it to display the calculations\, projections\, and data you need. Can’t make the live webinar? Register anyway and we’ll send you a recording of the presentation. ContractorBI is a construction-focused Business Analytics system that lets you visually inspect all the data you need\, from multiple locations\, in one location. Best of all\, the data is synced to its source in real time\, so you always have the latest information. \nRegister Here: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/8092135547200380767?source=rp
