The USA Template for 22

I've not examined it really closely, but I think Link and Co. should be congratulated for doing a great job on the AC22 USA template. While I'd like to see more complex profiles for commercial scale projects, there is more than meets the eye overall. Thanks for the consecutive numbering of attributes as well as including the Masterformat Classification system in the Start File.

Previous templates have been pretty haphazardly organized and the first round of the TPL for 21 was unusable.

My only request would be for a metric version, but I can do that work myself.

Thanks Link! Ya Did Good!

Definitely the most comprehensive and well-coordinated template that Graphisoft has put out!

Yes, the Master Format Classification addition is really great
Is it possible to ADD this format into another Template created in AC21 ?

A quick question: The Building materials listed in the AC Template 22 have a list of 2-digit numbers (example: 41-30 20 11 11 for 06 Wood-Flooring) in the materials properties description. What do these refer to?

I need to rebuild my template, so am reviewing this one.

These are the general Masterformat categories.
