Timber framing weight

I was wondering if there is a way to add how much a wall frame weighs?

We are using a range of stud sizes upto 170mm. With the introduction of the LVL studs we have noticed they are considerably heavier than MGP10. It would be good to understand the weight of the wall to determine where to break it up so the carpenters can still move it around on site. Is there a way to add this as a recipe?

Thanks again

Yes, that is an easy one; assign the weight per metre as a recipe for each material used.
TIP: Ideally, you assign a separate cost code to all weight recipes so you can separate it by using takeoff by cost code.
