Masonry

Wall by wall, course by course.

OmniTakeoff reads architectural and structural sheets to produce a wall-by-wall masonry takeoff with reinforcement, lintels, and bond beams pulled from the spec and the structural notes.

  • Auto-parsed

    Wall-type schedules

  • ACI / TMS aware

    Reinforcement

  • Substantial improvement after active learning

What the takeoff produces

A masonry takeoff that survives review.

Every line item carries the source it came from — sheet, detail, and spec paragraph — so the senior estimator can audit in minutes, not hours.

  • CMU, brick veneer, and stone walls by type and length
  • Block size, density, and weight class from wall-type schedule
  • Vertical and horizontal reinforcement count by spec
  • Lintels, bond beams, and control joints enumerated
  • Cavity insulation thickness pulled from wall-type detail
  • Mortar volume calculated from joint width and wall area

Masonry features

Built for the way your office actually bids.

  • Wall-type schedule parser

    Wall-type schedules become structured rows so a Type A wall doesn't get priced like a Type C wall.

  • Structural-spec aware

    Vertical reinforcement, bond beams, and lintels come from the structural notes and S-sheet, not from the architectural plan alone.

  • Spec-to-line linking

    Click any wall row, see the spec paragraph and the wall-type detail that called it.

  • Mortar / grout takeoff

    Joint dimensions and grouting frequency drive a separate mortar/grout line, not a flat percentage.

Frequently asked

Questions we hear from estimators.

Do you handle stone veneer separately from brick?
Yes — different labor units, different waste factors, different anchor patterns.
Can I import an existing wall-type catalog?
Yes. Org-level wall types win over the platform defaults; the parser respects your naming.
