Hi,
I am trying to figure out a way to create a more accurate material takeoff schedule for stud walls that accounts for doors, windows, and openings. I know I can edit the assembly of my wall, create a layer for the studs, and then use a formula like length of wall/16" to get how many studs I need. However, I don't think this will account for windows, doors, and openings that use framing members. Is there a method I can use that will accurately calculate all framing members needed in a wall that includes such instances?
