Completed takeoff for areas like hotel rooms or condos is put into a Typical - a type of assembly linked to the drawing

Use a Typical on the layout drawings to rapidly count all of the identical rooms or condos in the layout, instantly generating all the takeoff for those suites

PataBid's AI can also be used to count the Typicals - so major takeoffs can be completed in minutes
