Calculation of rebar cost

tomaz_mrak1 — Thu, 28 Nov 2024 11:28:33 GMT

Hello, I am new to Revit and I have a problem that is holding me back. My project is made out of concrete with added reinforcement rebar and now that I have finished the model I need to make a calculation of price for the whole structure including concrete cost combined with a rebar cost. The problem is when I want to multiply these parameters for rebar. Total rebar weight and cost per kilogram, it says that I have inconsistant units, what can I do to solve this problem?

It is often when using 2 different Field Format formats so you have to divide one of the Parameter's by 1 to make it unitless

Total Cost = (Length of each bar / 1) * Cost
