About the Workshop

Get hands-on with the complete heavy highway civil estimating workflow in this three-part, highly interactive Estimate with Impact – Heavy Highway Civil Estimating workshop. From interpreting DOT plan sets to running live bid simulations, this workshop builds your confidence across core estimating tasks while sharpening your ability to structure, analyze and communicate estimates. You’ll strengthen your foundation in preconstruction by practicing modern workflows that incorporate risk awareness, defensible pricing, and AI-assisted tools—all applied to key heavy civil project scopes like earthwork, paving, structures, and utilities.

Each session progresses your skills with a mix of guided instruction, collaborative exercises, and demonstrations. You’ll interpret plans and specs to extract and organize quantities, build unit prices by assembling labor, equipment, and materials. You’ll walk away with sharpened technical skills, a clearer risk lens, and practical tools you can immediately apply on the job.
