Yes, to extract estimates from construction drawings of civil engineering project, you have to use BIM (Building Information Modeling).
Use BIM to model your project and then you can estimate the costs and resources. Building Information Modeling (BIM) has all the functions of Civil engineering projects such as Drawing sketches, Modeling, Scheduling and Estimation.
Examples of BIM softwares are:

Revit Architecture and Vico Constructor

To learn how to use Vico Constructor, view its video tutorials at:
