AutoCAD 2013 :: Bill Of Materials
Oct 14, 2013I am using AutoCAD 2014. We were recently asked if there is a way to automatically update bill of materials if you change or add materials in a drawing. Bill of material is not necessarily in the same drawing? Do I need to create a table?
We normally just create a bill of material separately from the rest of the drawings in AutoCAD. They also want to be able to export it to exel
Revit :: How To Produce And Create Bill Of Quantities
Apr 25, 2007Which is the best way to produce and create Bill Of quantities from revit and update progressive day to day work that already done for example i can use a give composite layer and give a material on it so by using a takeoff material i can easily dive a quantities but the problem is i can't monitor progress because brick and plastering can't do at the same time.For the moment i just draw 2 different type of wall so i just can remark it accordingly, if there a better way to do this?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Attributes For Bill Of Materials
May 21, 2013I am drawing water pumping stations for my company, and they are wanting to do a "Bill of Material" for each job. But they are wanting to do it through the block attribute system in autocad. This actually seems more time consuming than just counting the parts and inserting the new quantities in a table.
I am drawing these with 2 and sometimes 3 views.....the problem with that, I would draw 3 views of a valve (3 blocks), and It counts it as 3 different valves.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Bill Of Materials Varies
Jun 12, 2013I am seeing this "varies" message on certain items in my BOM but can't tell where the incosistencies are. The strange thing is that my part number LCVINYL is showing the correct length of material while the Unit Quantity is showing "varies". Normally this would make me think that the inconsistency is in the name only. Where should I be looking to correct this?
BTW all of these LCVINYL parts were created in the frame generator if that matters.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Bill Of Materials Won't Update
Aug 13, 2013I changed the names and locations of my parts in an assembly, opened the drawing, and found all of the parts and names. I then looked at the parts list on the assemblies in the drawings. Even though the assemblies updated, the part name did not update. How do I update the BOM to match the assembly (I thought it would do this automatically?)?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Bill Of Materials / Parts List
Mar 5, 2013How & where I can add fields that I require for my equipment. I see I can add it to the bill of materials in the assembly but that doesn't carry through to the drawing.
I see that I can add to the parts list in the drawing but i don't want to have to add the information into my drawings every time I use one of my machines.
Basically I am busy creating a library of all the machines I use. This library will then be used for numerous drawing for many different clients. I need the required info to be in my drawing from the beginning without me having to add it to every clients drawing.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Bill Of Materials Shows Unused IParts
Sep 19, 2012I have an iassembly with iparts in an .iam file and I went to make a shop drawing of this assembly. When I go to do this, I get my parts list showing all versions of the iparts, even the ones that are not used. It will show a 0 in quantity.
This is under the "structured" view and I do not see a "pars" tab, which is what I've read I need to look for.
I've read that I have to be very careful with the way that I create iassemblies and iparts, How to make a drawing with a BOM that only shows the parts currently in use.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Bill Of Materials Unable To Show (structured)
Jun 11, 2013I have a problem with Bill Of Materials in drawings.
I want to show a structured list of the top level components in this general arrangement. But whenever i select a view for inventor to create the table it only gives me to option for 'Components Only.'
I have edited the assembly and switched off the 'Components only' option in the IAM, but it still will only let me put a parts only BOM into the drawing. I have right clicked the node in the IDW browser and selected 'bill of materials' and here i have also switched off 'parts only' but still the same.
How do i get a top level BOM into my drawing?

Revit :: 2012 Freezes And Crashes When Applying Materials To Wall Types?
Jun 23, 2012This is the first time I experience a major problem with Revit 2012. I created a duplicate of an 8" concrete masonry wall for my student project. Then I selected the Edit option in the Structure to change the rendered material to concrete masonry. Suddenly the program freezes and crashes. A window pops up stating that Windows has detected a problem with Revit and must shut the program down. I've everything since my last save. As of now, I recreated a duplicate of the masonry wall I need and started drawing some of the walls for my project but I'm afraid to experiment with other materials. Background Information about my computer: I downloadeda free version of Revit 2012 student software to practice at home. I have Windows 7 64-bit, 6GB of Ram and Intel (R) Core i7 2.20GHz...(I checked all the software requirements before downloading the correct version of Revit 2012)
Do I have to uninstall the program and reinstall it again? Would the problem go away?
AutoCAD Inventor :: Bill Of Materials - Actual Parts And Assemblies Quantity
Sep 16, 2013Im trying to generate a list of parts and assemblies that has all the quantities included in it.Ive found that if i use the structured view it does not multiply the part count by the number of assemblies, so if i export the bill of materials i wont get the actual number of parts that i require.
If i use the parts only list then it wont include the sub assemblies.the job that im working on has hundreds of sub assemblies and thousands of parts so manually adding them up is not an option.Using Inventor 2014 Pro.

Is there a way to simply create an asset or material library out of multiple materials from a project file at one time without having to individually select them?

Nov 23, 2011WHen I create a roof on level two of my project, I get only two choices of roof. When I go to roof edit, I get system family basic roof, and glazed panel. No other roof families to load.
I simply want to attach a shed roof to the upper part of wall (at level 2), and it only allows me to create a hip roof.I can't seem to modify it, other than to change roof slope. I've looked at a couple of videos, but the featuers in the videos don't seem to be there.
Note that the walls are sloping (in order to shed rain). I also cannot create a slope on the top edge of the wall in elevation view, but that's another story.How to I modify the hip roof to create a flat, if that's what I must do?

Revit :: 2013 / 2012 Contextual Panels Do Not Display
Jan 24, 2013I am running Windows 8. I have used multiple .NET Framework removal/repair tools, tried uninstalling all versions of .NET and reinstalling 4.0 from its official Microsoft standalone installer. However, every time I try to install 4.0, I recieve a message stating that it or a higher version of .NET is already installed.
Upon further research, I was informed that the .NET 4.5 Framework is an integral part of Windows 8 that cannot be uninstalled.
I cannot access any of the tools I need to in the program, so it is basically rendered useless (don't tell me to just use shortcuts because that is extreemely tedious and painful to make work properly, ive tried it). I have also thought about just installing Revit 11' and using that, but it is no longer available from Autodesk!

Revit :: 2013 Create / Edit Family Templates?
Dec 11, 2013I have a situation where I need to place a curved door in a curved wall, I do not want to model in place or look for a work around but would like to create a family template that that could be used frequently.
In previous versions I was able to copy the metric door.rft and rename it to i.e. Metric Door_Radial Host.rfa. I would then be able to edit this template to suit my requirements, save and rename to .rft. This template would then be live.
In 2013 it seems that I cannot open a .rfa file for editing.
