Architecture and engineering · Software for civil and structural engineers

Hold every issued drawing, pre-pour check and extra site visit in one project file.

Structural consultancies issue drawings marked good for construction, revise them and check reinforcement before each pour, often beyond what the fee covers. The software holds a drawing and revision register and site visit reports with photos. A pre-pour check with a pass or hold, and a count of visits against the agreement, are built around it during implementation.

At a glance

A structural consultant’s work carries on long after the final construction drawings go out. Reinforcement checks before pours, contractor queries and a second look at the soil report run for months after the fee is agreed.

The software records that work as it happens. The inspection form comes first. Then the register, and then the billing. Set-up runs on calls and shared screens, with a visit to your office where that saves time.

How the work runs today

An architect or builder sends a plan and a soil investigation report with the safe bearing capacity. Your engineers design footings, columns, beams and slabs, then issue construction drawings and bar bending schedules for the steel yard to cut from. Each change brings a revision, emailed to the site.

The site engineer asks for a check before every pour. You look at lap lengths, cover blocks, spacers and shuttering on site, then give instructions to the contractor’s engineer on WhatsApp before the concrete arrives. A stability certificate may be asked for months later. Fees are billed stage by stage in the accounting package.

Where it breaks

What goes wrong for civil and structural engineers without a proper system.

Pours happen without a logged check

A request arrives on a Sunday and is written down nowhere. The slab is cast, and the file holds no signed pre-pour check. Nothing proves the steel was seen.

Extra visits are not billed

The agreement allowed eight visits and the engineer made twenty. Nobody counted past the first month. Months of work go unbilled.

Superseded prints stay on site

The contractor’s drawing is two revisions behind, and the difference sits in the reinforcement. Nobody marked the old sheet superseded.

Certificates depend on paper files

A stability certificate means gathering every check note and cube test report for that building, and some sit in diaries. The delay lands on the client.

What the software does

What we would build for civil and structural engineers.

Named the way your team already talks about the work. We start with whichever part the audit shows is costing you most.

Drawing and bar schedule register

List every structural drawing and bar bending schedule with its revision, date and recipient, so a print on site can be traced to the day it went out.

Pre-pour inspection report

Add a phone form for lap lengths, cover, spacing and shuttering to the site visit report, with photos and a pass or hold, built for you during implementation.

Visit counter against the agreement

Count visits per project against what the fee covers, and flag the extra ones for billing before the stage closes. The counter is added to the visit log at set-up.

Stage fee invoicing

Bill fees by design stage and by extra visit, with the tax your country applies. Your accounting package is not built in. An export of stage bills is quoted separately at set-up.

Project file for certificates

Keep checks, drawings, soil reports and cube test results for one building together, ready when a certificate is due.

How it works

How the work runs from Bengaluru for your city.

  1. 1

    The audit, by call

    A screen-share and a look at the sheets, accounting reports and WhatsApp groups your team uses. No travel needed.

  2. 2

    A written proposal

    Scope, what we build first and the cost, agreed in writing before anything starts.

  3. 3

    Build in short rounds

    Working screens shared every few weeks. Your team tests them from your own office.

  4. 4

    Go-live, in person when it helps

    For data migration and training we can come to your city. Travel is agreed in advance.

  5. 5

    Support online

    Fixes, changes and hosting handled remotely by the same team that built it.

Common questions

Questions civil and structural engineers ask before they call.

Does it replace our structural analysis software?

No. Your engineers keep designing in their analysis package. This records what was issued, checked and billed.

Can the site be kept off an old revision?

Yes. The register marks earlier revisions superseded and names who received each drawing set. When the site asks for a print, the current revision is the one on screen.

Is the architecture firm product close to our work?

Partly. It already carries a drawing register, revisions, site visit reports and stage billing. The pre-pour form and the visit counter are built around those.

Can a contractor request an inspection?

Yes, through a request form built with the pre-pour check. The site engineer enters the slab and the date, and your engineer sees it on a phone. A Sunday request is still on record on Monday.

What determines the cost for a structural design practice?

Engineers, site visitors and projects in progress shape it. The drawing register, pre-pour reports, visit counter, stage invoicing and certificate file are priced module by module, and a module can be removed to see how the quotation changes. An accounting package to connect adds more. Old project folders to bring in also count.

What does a design practice need to hand over first?

Provide a drawing register, a bar schedule sample, a pre-pour inspection form, the fee agreements now running, and a stability certificate from a past job. A senior engineer and an office manager should review screens.

Who owns the drawings register if the practice moves on?

The practice holds it, code as well. Revisions, inspection reports, visit counts and invoices come out as readable files. The builders remain the support team, and GullySystem hosts it, or the practice may use its own server if it prefers.

What happens after I share my requirements?

An engineer reads what you send and replies within one business day. We then look at the software, spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups your business runs on today and write down what works, what slows your team down and what is missing. A demo login, a screen-share or a few screenshots are enough. You get a short written summary ordered by priority, with no obligation to hire us afterwards.

How much will the software cost?

We don’t publish a price, because it depends on what the system has to do. That first review settles the scope, and the cost goes into a written proposal before any work starts.

Talk to us

Tell us how your business runs today.

A few lines on your spreadsheets, software and WhatsApp groups is enough. We reply the same working day.

What happens after you share your requirements

  1. A senior engineer reads your answers. Nobody phones first.
  2. Within one business day you get a written note: what we understood, what we would start with, and the questions we still have.
  3. If it fits, a proposal follows with the order of work, what we need from you and what you receive at each step.
  4. No call is booked and nothing is paid until you have read the note. Your details stay with us.
