Hi, amazing explanation both videos about energy optimization and material take off.
Thank you very much.
Please make a video that how we can use revit as BIM platform?

You have calculated cost per area wrong. The calculation you did was for total cost. Cost per area is Cost divided by area. In general it is a good presentation.

[@abhiii7285]

Perfect. Very neat & clearly explained. Thanks a lot...

Thank you for the effort. A piece of advice; It will be more comfortable to the viewer/listener if you delete the words "simply" and "basically" from your speaking

thank you so it was very very very helpful

[@engrburki]

Dear you have set the type of calculated field (Cost per Length) as Length thats why the field was showing the unit of meters instead of $ (currency). instead you should have defined its Type as as Currency and the units will be displayed in default currency ($). similarly in calculated field of cost per unit area you defined the Type as Area which is a mistake. You should have defined it as Currency so the unit may be displayed as $.

[@sambahman9335]

Hi Farid @Farid Barki , thank you for your feedback but if you do that in the formulation of the parameters like cost per length or cost per area, then you will end up with an error. So to sum up, the only way currently functioning in Revit is the one already demonstrated in this video. You can give it a try and we can discuss this further if you are interested.

Very helpful thank you.
Just do not use SIMPLY at every sentence

[@maxwellweaver8723]

SIMPLY was used 73 times.

[@yukia.8188]

Now that you mentioned it, I am more focused on the SIMPLY
