  1. A Lap Around Autodesk Quantity Takeoff Mark Webb Software Development Manager, Autodesk

  2. Introduction • What is Autodesk Quantity Takeoff? • Autodesk Quantity Takeoff allows mix of old and new practices • Old: Manual takeoff, tracing and measuring • New: Automated takeoff, extract intelligent data from BIM • Manual Takeoff and Automated Takeoff workflows can be combined in a single project with ease. • Takeoff Catalogs can be saved and reused across projects. • Various reports readily available.

  3. Introduction continued • Quick and easy creation of assemblies and override of values in an Excel like manner. • Automatic cross referencing of elements across model and sheets • Export to DWF/DWFx including full BOM

  4. DEMO 1: Manual Takeoff – tracing & measuring • Here you will be introduced to the following concepts • Reuse of catalogs • Setup of raster image for accurate measurement • Quick measurement of lengths and areas, plus counting of elements • Adjustment of values in workbook with • Direct overrides • Formula • Creation of new takeoff assemblies • Saving back the augmented catalog Approx time 20 minutes

  5. DEMO 2: Starting to use intelligent data • Here you will be introduced to the following concepts • Navigating and previewing model in Autodesk Quantity Takeoff • Perform quick takeoff by picking individual elements • Grouping similar elements using a targeted search • Performing takeoff on entire model and subsets of model • Navigating sheets and model using cross-referencing of elements provided by above techniques • ….

  6. DEMO 2: continued • …. • Overriding data explicitly or modifying with formulas • Using assignments for vastly improved productivity Approx time 20 minutes

  7. DEMO 3: Adding richness to the data • Here you will learn about • Defining types for model takeoff • Manipulating assemblies to get real world quantity values • Adding cost data for • Materials • Equipment • Labor Approx time 20 minutes

  8. DEMO 4: Sharing Your Results • Here you will learn how to • Apply Legends • Publish to DWF/DWFx with full BOM data • Generate Material Reports • Exporting data to other applications Approx time 10 minutes
