Here is the formula I use for Cost per Sq Ft. This is a calculated value in the schedule... Total cost = (Material: Area/1) * Material: Cost Any time you are doing a calculation you have to make sure that each of the parameter are the same Unit type. That is why I used the (Material: Area/). This converts the number into a simple Integer so I can multiply it by the Material Cost. You could use something like this to do the Number of Bricks in a wall. You may have to play around with the formula but it should get you started.
