Furthermore, reusing takeoff information, both between instances of an object and between projects, reduces the time required to perform cost estimates. Advantageously, the takeoff objects may be saved in the system database and reused for different projects, thereby ensuring consistency between projects.
#AUTODESK QUANTITY TAKEOFF CONCRETE MANUAL#
Using automated methods, instead of manual techniques, reduces errors and increases the accuracy of the generated cost estimate. The cost of each instance is then calculated and added to the project cost. After a takeoff object is defined, the corresponding instances are automatically identified and quantified. A takeoff object may include the dimension of geometry (e.g., numerical, lineal, area) to quantify, the object parameter to be quantified for all instances of the object, and the takeoff calculations to be performed. For each drawing object a corresponding takeoff object is created. organising, planning, scheduling or allocating time, human or machine resources Enterprise planning Organisational modelsĮmbodiments of the present invention include methods for semi-automatic quantity takeoff from computer aided design (CAD) drawings.
