22trobbins Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 (edited) My material list for lumber is only giving me counts for studs, plates, and headers. I have built framing for the whole house, how come there are no quantities for Floor Joists, T&G OSB, etc...? Thanks!

Working on Premier X11 Someone is going to ask you to upload your model file here so they can look at it to see why you're having a problem with this. If you do that people are more willing to jump in and help instead of guess at the issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joey_martin Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Without looking I would say you need to go back and ensure you have specified all those other things to be built. Also, the materials list is just like other aspects of the program, there are "layer views" for the list. Do you have those items turned on?

Yes the wall assemblies have OSB, etc., and the joists are all on the plan. How do I turn on the "layer views" for the materials list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like they are there when I do a Calculate Materials For All Floors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, your materials list seems to pick it up. When I run a Materials List for All Floors, this is what I am shown. This is basically the entirety of the materials list.

Joe_Carrick Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 You should probably contact Tech Support. They will be able to walk you thru it, step by step. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glennw Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 If you go to Preferences>Materials List, are all the categories checked? Or, when in a Materials List view, go to Tools>Materials List Display Options and make sure all categories are checked. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glennw Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Thanks Mick, I usually hesitate to specify a particular tool button because they can be customised, moved, deleted, etc. I usually just go straight to the menu item which can't be edited. I just saves a reply like "I can't find that tool button". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mentioned it mostly as in X11 the Icon changed and no longer looks like the other Display Options Icons, but like a lot of stuff in CA, it is usually available thru the Icon or Menu methods. M.

bmatth1 Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 I had the same problem. Once I REBUILD the walls, and used the materials polyline, everything showed up - wall studs, and ceiling joists. Then use the BUY LIST, all studs and ceiling joists were listed according to correct sizes and tally. Apparently, chief will calsulate the wall and ceiling materials list when the walls are built - either by automatic build walls or build walls. Hope this helps.
