Hi Daryl,

You wrote: "The online information does not provide any detail on whether this will create a build plan and material list"
Material list => in the the online information page for this program
http://www.punchsoftware...-design-premium-v18.aspx
go to the Features and Tools tab => go to Cost Estimation & Mobile Landscaping Quote => if you click on the image, you will see a screenshot of the Estimator Power Tool that provides the Bill of Materials. You can add the prices, export to Excel, etc.
Building plans => the term "Building plans" has different meanings. If your question is "Does this program replace a professional?" or "Does the program specify the beams dimensions or where to place the columns?, then the answer is NO => such a program doesn't exist. If your question is "Can I use this program to create and print plans to submit for a building permit?" or "I have a set of plans including the framing and I wish to see the framing in 3D, place the columns, beams, etc. then the answer is yes, you can. Some Building Departments ask for very specific plans, so I'd suggest that you check the necessary plans with your BD.
