Reconcile elevations, wall sections and reinforcement details
Exterior elevations establish the visible veneer areas, while structural plans and wall schedules define masonry thicknesses and reinforced walls. We keep these references linked so a veneer finish is not mistaken for a second structural wall. Opening deductions and treatment of returns, jambs, piers and parapets are stated beside the quantities.
CMU area and unit counts are different outputs. A count conversion needs the scheduled unit dimensions and an agreed measurement basis; breakage and cutting allowances should remain visible. Grout quantities depend on the documented grouted cells and bond beams. Missing reinforcement or lintel details are flagged instead of inferred from the wall height.
Scope interfaces to settle before pricing
- Confirm whether steel lintels, shelf angles and embeds are supplied by masonry or structural steel.
- Separate waterproofing, insulation and air-barrier work where another trade carries it.
- Record access, scaffolding and phased work assumptions if a priced installation estimate is requested.
