What is construction takeoff? Construction takeoff also known as “quantity takeoff” & “construction Material takeoff” is calculating each material and its price required to get a construction job done from the project’s blueprint.

In simple words, it tells how much of each material will be required and how much it would cost to buy all the material. Ultimately the take-offs add up to the total cost of the project and is one of the factors in determining the cost of a construction project.
