As BCX 3D takeoffs and Blueprint takeoffs continue to gain popularity, we’ve been working hard to make taking off complex blueprints faster and easier. 

Getting taps attached to pipe or duct runs can be a hassle since you need a hole to attach a tap to, and there can be a lot of taps on one run of pipe or duct. Our development team has been working hard to make it easy to attach—or “snap”—a tap to a pipe or duct without having to worry about hole data. 

We’re very pleased to have released the Tap Snap feature to 3D takeoffs. Now, users can simply select a fitting, grab the connector, and slide it along the side of a pipe or duct and snap it in place. Not only will it automatically attach the needed hole data, but also, add in the handy Duplicate button and adding multiple taps is a snap!

If you’re keen to get snapping and haven’t used the BCX Takeoff Builder, simply contact [email protected] and we’ll be happy to help you get set up! ■
