Schedules

Create schedules, quantities, and material takeoffs to quantify and analyze the components and materials used in a project. A schedule is another view of the model.

Topics in this section
  • About Schedules
    Display lists of any type of element in a model.
  • Create a Schedule or Quantity
    When needed, add a list of building element components to your model.
  • Refine a Schedule
    After creating a schedule, modify it to change the format and the information that it shows.
  • Duplicate a Schedule
    Create a copy of schedule.
  • Use a Schedule in Another Model
    Insert schedule views from another project or save a schedule view to an external project.
  • Export a Schedule
    Send schedule data to a delimited text file that spreadsheet programs can open and manipulate.
  • Annotation Schedules (Note Blocks)
    Create annotation schedules (note blocks) that list annotations applied to model elements.
  • Key Schedules
    Define and use keys to automate the addition of consistent schedule information.
  • Material Takeoff Schedules
    Show more detail about the assembly of a component with lists of sub-components or materials.
  • Panel Schedules
    For electrical systems, panel schedules display information about the panel, the circuits connected to the panel, and their corresponding loads.
  • Graphical Column Schedules
    Structural columns are identified in a column schedule by intersecting grid lines and by their top and bottom constraints and offsets. They are placed into the column schedules according to these identifications.
  • Schedule View Instance Properties
    Modify schedule view properties to change the fields, visual style, orientation, and other properties of the schedule.
