Example:
The structural drawings show a C12x30 that gets notched into a block wall. You need to find the dimensions in order to properly saw the block wall. This app allows you to quickly find the important dimensions. On the other hand, perhaps you have a steel beam on an existing building and know the dimensions but need to find the size.
