The presentation will highlight the workflow changes inherent when moving from traditional 2D drawings, binders, and spreadsheets to a dynamic, integrated 5D model. So how do I calculate how many linear feet of 6-inch PVC that I have? All I need to do now is on the Analyze tab, click the Takeoff button, from here I can do a Summary or a Detailed report type. We will use a recent case study to show off the ability of Quantity Takeoff to maximize the translation of information from the intelligent models into the contractors estimate. I've also gone in and created some pipes, some 6-inch PVC pipes, and you can see them drawn and labeled here. So if I go to the Settings tab, right-click Water-Residential, we'll see that my 6-inch and 8-inch PVC have a Pay Item assigned to them. Specifically, the incidental construction section where we've gone into water systems and assigned some of these water sizes, these line items, to parts in the parts list. Now just to review, we've gone into QTO Manager, and I'll find that on the Analyze tab, QTO Manager, and we've loaded up a Pay Item file and a Categorization file, and that's what has populated the QTO Manager with all of this information.

Once you have pay items assigned to your pressure network, how do you figure out the actual quantities? Let's see how this is done. Supporting BIM technologies, Innovaya Visual Quantity Takeoff (QTO) offers the.
