In this video, learn how to set up your SketchUp site models to calculate cut and fill quantities using the CutNFill extension from TIG! We’ll use the Moasure 2 PRO to measure our existing grades, then we’ll import that data into SketchUp, create our proposed grades, and calculate the required cut and fill earthwork quantities! *This video is part of a paid partnership with Moasure* #ad
