"Sloped Area with Depth" Measurement Type & Slope Workflow

In Progress

The current zzTakeoff slope options for conditions are cumbersome. We should not have to do extra work to calculate both the area and volume of a sloped element; rather it should be automatically factored into the primary quantities similar to other takeoff software. Currently, slope is tied to the "Measurement Type" in zz which makes it mutually exclusive with volume take off. However, if zz treated slope as a completely separate variable from the "Measurement Type" (like OST) it would be both faster and less confusing than the current workflow. It's very important for us to get both the Area and Volume correct for sloped concrete elements


Please create a "Sloped Area with Depth" Measurement Type, or re-work the zzTakeoff slope prompt to be more like OST. Please note the OST slope workflow allows slope to be easily added to Area AND Linear conditions:

Hey Adam, "Sloped Area with Depth" should be included in our next major release (along with the linear/segment variations). 🙂


Awesome! Thank You!
