Model your 3D project in detail

In this course you will follow me in the construction of a real apartment model, from the construction of the walls, going through various elements of the project (coatings, painting, electrical appliances, furniture, lighting, ceiling, carpentry) until reaching the details and creating scenes and styles to export to Layout.

You will learn how to use the tools available within Components and Attributes to enter the necessary information for each element, and extract quantities for the executive project with the Generate Report tool.

All this without having to separate the environments by files, the entire apartment is worked on in just one file and without the need for plugins.

Documentation with plans, sections and details for the work

After detailed modeling of the project in SketchUp, within the Layout we will create documentation with plans, sections, isometrics and any details that are necessary for the correct execution of the project.

You will learn how to create boards, stamps, model scenes, tables of element quantities, and how to control the graphic representation with the Tags and Styles of your file.
