Hello All,
How to create the floor schedule with the thickness of the materials. currently, I created a Material takeoff but it gives the overall thickness of the floor.
Example:
The overall thickness of the floor: 90mm, which will be 5mm tile, 10mm glue, 55mm screed and 20mm will be insulation.
Thanks in advance.

Turn the Floor (and other constructs too) into Parts and do a Part Material Takeoff Schedule. It'll report Thicknesses as well as a lot of other parameters fields. It's the Best way to do it IMO. Plus, it offers other benefits. For example: you can Phase construction of the build-up materials.
I think there s no need to turn this into parts.
Be sure to use the parameters that have "Material" in its name. Then, create a calculated value to get the thickness.

Amazing! it works...
But how to arrange the materials as per the order (Ceramic tile, Glue mortar, cement screed & Insulation/polystyrene). I tried with sorting/grouping, but it's not happening.
Thanks again!
This is not practical. The material take-off is just for the material quantities. If you wan't to describe the floor and its layers, use Description parameter. Write all the layers and their thicknesses in one field.
There is this other way... Its not perfect but...

You re welcome. Btw, you accidentally marked your post as an "accepted solution" instead of mine. Change that. Thanks

That's what we all said years ago -- until we found out that Parts was the better BIM way. That's why they say: "Once you go Parts, you'll never go back." ![]()
