Use the Equipment page to enter equipment into the visual assembly. You should only add equipment items that have a unit of time on the Equipment page of a visual assembly. If you want to add an equipment item that has a unit that is not a unit of time, add it to the Miscellaneous page of the visual assembly.
By adding equipment cost items that have units of time, you can add production rates that are specific to this visual assembly. This enables you to take into account any special circumstances of the visual assembly.
Adding equipment costs to visual assemblies is similar to selecting cost items for other parts of the visual assembly. You select a cost item that has some measure of time for its unit from a Lookup, enter a production rate, then select the appropriate units for the production rate.
For example, you select a Concrete Mixer that costs $100 per hour, enter a production rate of 20, and enter CY for the unit of the production rate. This would give you an equipment item that can mix 20 CY an hour at a cost of $100 per hour.
Each visual assembly can have five equipment crews on the Equipment page. If you have additional equipment costs, you can add them to the Miscellaneous page. However, you won't be able to enter production rates for these items.
