Description
|
| Takeoff |
v. The action of drawing measurements on an electronic image that correspond to building objects.
n. The visual representations of those measurements.
Proper Noun. A nickname for ConstructConnect Takeoff. |
| Takeoff Item |
Replaces the term "Condition".
A building component, such as a specific type of wall, floor, window, door, etc. that is measured and then costs applied for a Proposal or Estimate. Each Condition represents a unique building object, so if you were measuring 8' and 10' walls, you would need two Conditions. |
| Template |
A Condition that has been saved for future use. |
| Template Group |
A group of related saved Conditions (Templates) that can be added to a bid as a group. |
| Typical |
A way of speeding up the takeoff process by reusing or repeating something so the user only has to draw the takeoff once. See Typical Areas and Typical Groups. |
| Typical Area |
A repeating region of takeoff that the program multiplies out so the user only has to draw the takeoff once. |
| Typical Group |
A selected portion of takeoff that can be placed (marked) on the plans with one click rather than drawing all the takeoff objects separately. Sort of like a souped-up copy and paste, but all marked takeoff objects are linked back to the Typical Group so the user can make a change to the Typical Group and affect the takeoff wherever a marker was placed. |
