Line item extraction accuracy
Masonry takeoffs are detail-heavy — ties and flashing eat margin when missed.
Built for the way masonry packages are organized.
Brick, CMU, stone, and cladding each extracted as discrete line items per wall ID — bond pattern and coursing attached.
Lintel schedules parsed by size and length. Each lintel tied back to the opening it spans for clean pricing.
Wall ties, through-wall flashing, weeps, mortar net — picked up from wall sections and specs, not just plans.
What estimators are saying after switching.
“Brick-and-CMU takeoffs that took a day are done in an hour. The lintel schedule alone used to eat an afternoon.”
Masonry estimator, Cleveland
“Wall ties and flashing — we used to miss them constantly. Now they’re in the takeoff every time.”
Masonry contractor, Pittsburgh
“Mixed-material walls (brick + accent stone) used to be a nightmare. Plotform separates them cleanly.”
Cladding project manager, Saint Louis
