Hi all,
I work for a house building company and we have been using Revit for about a year now. We are improving are systems and the way we work to produce more and more quantity take offs.
I have just begun to bring in our Plumbing & Electrical Designs within Revit but in 2D Detail Items, these have been working amazing on plan but when it comes down to producing a schedule of items I know that 2D items can not be scheduled.
The type of schedule I require states the following and in vertical presentation:
The Room Name | | Plot 1 | plot 2
Item Name (double socket etc.) | 6 | 5
Item Name (double socket etc.) | 5 | 4
As I have found with Revit, the schedules produced work with the below:
Room Name | Mark | Description | Count
Living Room | A | Socket | 5
Living Room | B | Downlight | 6
What I am trying to do is reproduce the first schedule but having difficulties can anyone give me any tips regarding parameters or the way I can change the format of the schedule?
As far as I have come to find out this is more advanced then just going to fields, sorting grouping, Appearance and Filter.
Regards
Chris
