Title: Active Estimating Tracks Material Quantities Down to the Board and Layer

United States, 16th Feb 2026 - Accurate tracking of drywall quantities has long been a challenge for estimators, project managers, and field teams. A common obstacle lies in achieving precision not only at the wall level but also at the layer and board level, particularly when multiple materials are involved across a single partition. This is where Active Estimating introduces a transformative advancement, redefining the granularity of estimating drywall assemblies with data-driven intelligence. Why Layer- and Board-Level Visibility MattersWhen estimating and managing drywall projects, knowing the total square footage or number of partitions isn’t enough. For projects involving multiple board types—such as sound attenuation, moisture resistance, or fire-rated panels—knowing the layer-specific takeoff becomes critical. Without this, there's a risk of inaccurate material ordering, miscommunication with suppliers, and costly project delays.Production Data Enhanced with Detail-Rich AccuracyThe system used by Active Estimating includes production metrics tied to distinct board layers. This means that whether a partition is comprised of one, two, or even three board types, the system captures quantities down to the square foot per board per side. In complex wall types, this can involve interior boards, exterior facing panels, and optional sheathing or insulation products—all reflected with precision in the estimating output.Key Capabilities for Tracking Board and Layer QuantitiesLayer-specific square footage is broken down in the estimate output.Board sides (interior vs. exterior) are uniquely labeled and quantified.Material counts adjust dynamically if the wall type or height changes mid-design.The output includes clear codes and tags for boards, fasteners, insulation,...
