The Construction Master Pro Workbook was designed to help you understand common construction-math principles and will enable you to quickly acquire the skills to use this calculator to help your productivity on the job. Going through the workbook will show you how to solve routine construction challenges and complex design and estimating problems. The workbook is designed to be used in a construction course or as a self-tutorial from entry level to advanced users.

Divided into four major sections and 12 chapters, you can start at the beginning and work through the workbook or just pick the section you need to know more about to get the job done. Part A looks at site development. Chapter one reviews scaling linear distances and how to calculate areas. Building on that information, in chapter two you cover excavation and the swell of dirt along with fill and compaction items. The chapter concludes looking at grade lines.

Part B looks at footings, slabs and foundation walls. The chapter reviews how to find the volume of solid shapes and considers cross-sectional areas so you can determine the volume of concrete you need for a pour. Moreover, blocks for foundation walls are also discussed so you will know how to calculate the number of blocks required for a project.

The workbook addresses framing in Part C and includes walls, rafters and stairs. The wall section deals with material estimating and costing. The rafter and stairs chapters show you how to calculate layouts. Part D continues estimating with its discussion of finishing by addressing bricks, roofing and drywall specifically.
