How Estimating calculates takeoff quantities for assemblies

How Sage Estimating (SQL) calculates the assembly quantity

Sage Estimating (SQL) uses the assembly calculation and the variable values entered during takeoff to calculate the assembly quantity. Example

How Sage Estimating (SQL) calculates the quantities for the assembly items

The formula or factor entered for each assembly item determines how the quantity for that item is calculated.

  • Formula. Sage Estimating (SQL) uses the specified formula (or custom calculation) and the variable values entered during takeoff to calculate the item quantity. Example
  • Factor. A factor acts as a multiplier. Sage Estimating (SQL) multiplies the assembly quantity by the item factor to calculate the item quantity. Example
