Assemblies provide builders with a defaulted list of materials, parts and formulas, making it easy to measure blueprints. CountBricks Takeoff also offers imperial and metric measurements, making it a great option for builders all around the world.

One of the most powerful tools in the software is the area tool. This tool is used to measure the area of a flat 2D plane, a pitched surface, or to calculate cubic yards or meters. The linear tool is also incredibly useful for construction professionals. This tool can measure standard linear measurements, calculate linear cubic yards, and even access a hip and valley function for pitched linear measurements.
Finally, the count tool helps users quickly and easily count individual components such as windows and doors on a plan. This tool allows users to adjust the icon type and color to easily distinguish between different counts.
CountBricks.com’s AI construction software is designed to make construction professionals’ lives easier, faster, and more accurate. With powerful area, volume, and linear measurement tools, construction professionals can be sure they’re getting the most accurate data in the most efficient way.

It’s important to note that although the measurement tools offered by CountBricks Takeoff can be used on their own, it’s best to use them in connection to assemblies. This is the only way to ensure line item data will be sent to estimates in CountBricks.
Builders should start by selecting their assembly from the list of existing templates. Once they select their assembly, all they have to do is set their scale and start measuring. The three tools provided by CountBricks Takeoff account for virtually every required measurement type in construction – and creating them is easy.
