Perform quantity takeoffs in Forma Takeoff


Module overview

Discover how to extract quantities from 2D drawings and 3D models and prepare structured outputs for estimating. You'll also focus on obtaining accurate quantity data from design information .

In this module, you’ll learn how to:

  • Extract quantities from 2D drawings using takeoff tools.
  • Extract quantities from 3D models using BIM workflows.
  • Use automated tools to improve takeoff efficiency.
  • Organize takeoff outputs for estimating.

This material is from the course Learn Forma Preconstruction in 90 minutes. Be sure to download the accompanying dataset and refer to the Getting Started section before beginning this module.
