The "Bill of quantities" tab has been added to the toolbar of the "CYPEFIRE Design" application.
In the "Bill of quantities" tab, users have tools to generate and manage the bill of quantities of the installation that the program analyses. In this tab, users can extract the quantities of the model and, using that information, generate real job items. This process is carried out using a correspondence system between the elements that are measured on the design model and the concepts of the bill of quantities (mapping). This equivalency is stored in a local or network directory so that it can be expanded progressively and used in future projects.
To enter the prices of the project more easily, users can import complete databases and individual concepts from cost databases that have been developed in FIEBDC-3 (.bc3) format, such as those from the CYPE construction cost database Generador de precios.
The documents of the bill of quantities can be extracted in several reports (Quantities, Cost breakdown structure, Priced bill of quantities, Detailed bill of quantities, BoQ summary) which can be exported in HTML, DOCX, PDF, RTF and TXT format.
More information on the "Bill of quantities" tab in Open BIM applications of the project phase.
