Will different pipe sizes be combined?
No. System, material, size, and insulation are all part of the grouping key.
Count fixtures and measure pipe runs on plumbing PDFs
Start with plumbing presets, keep pipe sizes in separate groups, and expand declarative assemblies without changing source measurements.
Start a plumbing takeoff
Fixture, pipe, and fitting presets are ready when the workspace opens.
- Pipe groups retain size
- Assemblies are version pinned
- No executable formulas
A traceable plumbing quantity workflow
Count fixtures and fittings, measure pipe by system, material, size, and insulation, then keep assembly expansions separate from measured geometry.
How the plumbing workflow works
- 1.Open a plumbing PDF
- 2.Set the scale
- 3.Choose a fixture, pipe, or fitting preset
- 4.Review measurements and assembly components
Plumbing takeoff questions
Can an assembly change old projects?
No. Each applied assembly records its exact version and expanded components.
