I'm a new member here. I just wonder any GURU out here who are very experience in estimating steel tonnage for building.
For example contractor will do estimation of total steel tonnage of a factory base on architect layout, say 15ton/m² etc. inclusive column, rafter, etc. Or is there any estimation software or formula out there?

I have de Etabs 9.5 version. I am designing a 40-story building with steel, the proplem that I am facing is that when asigning the steel deck between the secondary beams and run the analysis. I do not get any warning, yet after steel frame design, It only appears the information on some beams and all columns, but there are several beams without information.
The thing is that by changing the deck section to a comon slab section and reruning the analisys and design, the information of every beams and columns appeared.
So I wanted to know what is the problem here, because I need to use steel deck in my building
