how to calculate total length of walls in quantity takeoff/schedule

[tiho]

I'm trying to calculate lineal feet of site walls in a takeoff/quantity schedule but not sure how. I can get areas to calculate totals but now Length parameter. ANy suggestions?

Is this what you are after? If so, you just need to make sure that on your Schedule, the Length property has this setting (Formatting tab: Calculate totals & Sorting/Grouping tab: Footer > Totals). Hope this helps.

yes, thanks. I actually figured it out right after I posted but thank you anyway. I had gone down the wrong choice of "Quantities & takeoffs" instead of wall schedule and the option to "calculate totals" was not available for the "length" parameter. Once I chose to create wall schedule it all worked like magic.
