Gym and athletic equipment: common questions

Which spec sections does it read?
It reads the gymnasium equipment sections, most often 11 66 23, and finds them inside a full Project Manual. You do not need to cut the section out first.
Does it read On-Screen Takeoff files?
Yes. Add the .ost file to the packet and it reads the quantities you drew, such as wall pad runs. It ties them to the takeoff and shows the sheet each count came from.
Does it know my company's rules?
Yes. A correction can be saved as a house rule for your company. House rules run only on your jobs. They never run on another company's takeoff.
