Size the framing. Count the boards. Price the job.
DeckFoundry checks your deck against published IRC tables, builds the material takeoff, and calculates the job from one set of dimensions.
Enter the deck. DeckFoundry sizes the framing against published code tables, counts every board with cut optimization, and prices the job.
Joist spans, cantilever, beam spans, footing diameter and post height — read from real IRC prescriptive tables, not rules of thumb. Anything outside the tables gets flagged, not guessed.
Board-by-board takeoff using actual 5½" face width and 3⁄16" gaps. Compares 12, 16, 20 and 24 ft stock and tells you which to buy — and how to cut it.
Builds the cost from the same takeoff: materials, labor by phase, fees, overhead and profit. Contractors on Pro carry the estimate straight into proposals, contracts and job documents.
Board calculators count material. DeckFoundry checks the framing too.
The Spanish version runs the same calculation engine — same spans, same quantities, same totals. Lumber dimensions and code references stay unchanged, so both versions reference the same materials and standards. Proposals and invoices can be produced in either language, your choice for each document. Contracts and other legal documents stay in English.
Materials shown. Labor and markup use the same calculation in both languages. Proposals and invoices can be created in either language; contracts and other legal documents stay in English.
Same engine underneath. The difference is how much of the business side you need.
