What is a unit type?
A unit type is a repeating residential layout — for example Kitchen A, Kitchen B, Vanity C — that appears across many apartments. In multi-unit takeoff you measure one instance of the type, then multiply pieces and quantities by the count of units. Nesting across the full quantity of a type is where slab yield improves.
Why types matter
A tower may have hundreds of apartments but only a dozen kitchen and vanity types. Quoting apartment-by-apartment wastes time and misses interlocking nests. Quoting by type matches how fabricators actually buy and cut stone.
