All Takeoff Guides

Trade takeoff guides

Worked takeoff guides for single trades: electrical devices, conduit and wire, framing lumber, and plumbing fixtures, pipe, fittings and hangers. Each guide takes one illustrative scope from the drawings to counted and measured quantities, prints every input, shows the arithmetic line by line, labels each assumption and names the items that fall between sheets. They are written for subcontractors, builders and in-house estimators who price from plan sets. The method is meant to be checked against your own numbers, whether you measure by hand, on screen or hand a trade to an outside desk. Each guide also says what belongs in the exclusions and what to do when the set is larger than the week allows.

  • Editable Excel or CSV, unlocked and ready to price
