Quantity Takeoff
Every building
has its price.
Cost Early, Cost Often
Autodesk® Quantity Takeo software helps make
cost estimating faster, easier, and more accurate,
from design through delivery.
Regardless of what
phase you are in
during a project—
from design through
preconstruction—
Autodesk Quantity
Takeo helps enable
cost estimators to more
rapidly generate material
quantity takeos and
perform conceptual
estimates. Whether
you have an image file
of a napkin sketch or a
fully developed building
information model (BIM)
developed in Autodesk®
Revit-based products,
Autodesk Quantity
Takeo helps cost
estimators to gain an indepth understanding of
project costs.
With Autodesk Quantity Takeo software, cost
estimators can easily create synchronized,
comprehensive project views that combine
pertinent information from building information
modeling tools (such as Autodesk
Architecture software, Autodesk
software, and Autodesk
geometry, images, and data from other applications.
Take advantage of digital property data to
automatically or manually measure areas and
count or price building components such as walls,
doors, and window. Then print the results, export
to Microsoft
file format.
Stay Digital
More consistent productivity depends on up-todate drawings and data. Autodesk Quantity Takeo
reporting tools helps enable users to create digital,
detailed materials reports much faster than paperbased processes. With Autodesk Quantity Takeo,
you can keep your workflow digital and help ensure
that reports, materials quantities, and other data
remain up to date.
Stay Realistic
More eciently count and quantify building
components and their compositions. Related
components are more easily cross-referenced to
help ensure that your valuable time is spent costing,
not counting.

Stay on Track
Autodesk Quantity Takeo uses the latest

quantification, and markup capabilities, uniting
design data and other vital information within an
open and fluid architecture. So you can better keep
track of changing variables without missing a beat.

Stay Digital and Up to Date
Use Autodesk Quantity Takeo software to collect
and synchronize design data and help streamline
cost-estimation processes.
Takeo in Minutes Automatically
Autodesk Quantity Takeo software provides a whole
new way of working. Through full integration of and
support for D and D design data, Autodesk Quantity
Takeo helps enable you to perform a takeo on an
entire building information model in just minutes—as
opposed to days using traditional methods. The
software provides greater flexibility than typical
databases or spreadsheets, enabling a smoother,
more accurate workflow for cost estimators.
Working in D, you can perform intuitive,
interactive model examination to gain a better
understanding of the model for estimating
purposes. Object visibility and transparency
are adjustable according to building section
or component type. The highly configurable
project catalog makes the organization of design
and construction objects quicker and easier.
Do It Yourself
Autodesk Quantity Takeo now has more powerful
manual takeo capabilities that support the
takeo of JPG, TIF, PDF, and other “nonintelligent”
image formats. Use multiple line segments, arcs,
or a combination of line and arc segments when
tracing geometry on a floor plan. Specify whether
to treat a series of continuously drawn segments
as a single takeo measurement or as individual
takeo measurements. More rapidly perform area
calculations, linear measurements, and counts, and
organize your results more quickly and easily in the
project catalog.
Spot the Dierence
If you are working with DWF files, you can use the
Sheet Compare function to compare D sheets
from your current takeo project with an internal
or external sheet. Then you can more quickly
generate a list of modifications and view a visual
representation of the dierences.
Quantify More Quickly
Now you can count and quantify all of your
project design data more quickly and easily. Use
unlimited component subassemblies to categorize
and count materials to an infinite level of detail.
Use the Search Takeo function to help expedite
takeo of similar intelligent drawing objects.
Organize them in the component catalog, then
more quickly analyze your results in the dynamic
Autodesk Quantity Takeo Workbook.
Maintain a Dynamic Document of Record
The Autodesk Quantity Takeo Workbook helps
enable cost estimators to compile, update, and
interact with quantity-related project data. In
the workbook, you can switch between a cost
summary view and a detailed object view for
any item. View information for the current sheet
or for the entire project. Add and edit item and
assembly formulas, and define item properties,
directly in the Workbook, using Auto Fill and other
tools that function like those in Microsoft Excel.
Enter overrides for item and object dimensions.
See which items and objects contain overrides.
All contents can be saved for a comprehensive
document of record at project’s end.
With the help of
Autodesk Quantity
Takeo software, cost
estimators can collect
and quantify multiformat
design data and highquality images, and
utilize property data to
automatically or manually
measure, count, and price
various building objects.
We have so much more confidence in the prices
we relay to owners and other stakeholders. With
Quantity Takeo, we know the numbers are right.
