Are you a builder, foreman, or just a good owner of the site and you need a convenient tool for calculating the material, and further accounting for its purchases? Tired of sheets and pencils that are forgotten or lost at the most inopportune moment? Cube Calc is a just for you! Cube Calc can count cubes, weight, and their cost in materials such as wood (bar, board, round) of different species and metal (rectangular pipe). It will help you create a shopping list, with the final weight and amount, so that you don’t forget a single item in the store or at the base, while immediately understanding what type of transport will be needed for delivery. If you are a professional builder or foreman, you will appreciate the opportunity to create several lists to take into account the purchase of material for several objects. Each list, which can have its own name, will allow you to maintain the planned volume, weight and cost of the material, and after purchase, you will allow you to see the final amount spent on the object. The actual estimate higher than planned? Items for which the overexpense won’t go unnoticed, the program will select them in the list and show the amount of overexpendit.
