thank you!

Depends what you need. If you need the total area (vertical surfaces), you could model the formwork before you calculate it. It could be some simple parametric line-based family.

use  Calculated Parameter Fields:

  • 2*(L+W)*T   for Column foundations
  • and 2*W*T for Wall foundations
  • use Filter to isolate Wall and Column foundations
  • have a look at the attached file

How can we model formwork in order to calculate area for footings?

columns and walls ok, but what about footings, strip footing?

I don't care if its a wall formwork, column formwoork or foundation strip formwork. I can use the same parametric line-based family to model it all. Its attached.

 

Btw, I wanna thank you for posting this question. Right now, I'm working in construction and maybe we are going to use this family that I built for you.

Just load into project (insert/load family). Create a component (Architecture Tab/Component)...Draw the line. Explore instance properties and type properties of this family.

hello again, I would like to ask you that now that I used this component for formwork how can I receive the quantities from View-Schedules, in order to find the quantity in sqr.m for my take off? thank you in advance

Open type properties of the family. You will see a material parameter. Assign a new material and call it "Formwork". Create a material take-off schedule and check "Generic Models". Add these fields: material:name material:volume There s no need to add [material:area] because you would not get the area you need. [material:area] calculates all the surfaces of a generic model. This is not a floor or a wall where you would get an area of one surface. Instead of that, create a calculated value called "Area" and give it a formula: [material:volume]/50mm Input the formwork thickness of your choosing.

...the family is updated. It can be used to create beam formwork as well.
