• First we set the levels if we needed.

• Draw exterior walls from the drawings

• The draw interior walls by using the offset tools ( wall center dimensions )
• We use the trimming tools to draw the accurate drawings
• The walls in top to the level 2 or need elevation check that

• Add door where we needed , we can change the door directions by space key and adjust by left
right up, down keys
• Then we need for opening such as arch we select the architecture tab in left hand top side wall
we select and draw a rectangular
( we need the opening which is attached to wall we put the dimension in suitable location (=
150/2)
• Then we add windows, fanlight like the door case
• Use the align tool to align the door and windows ( use elevation sections north , west , east ,
south)
• Add furniture by components ( use rotate, move tool to adjust)

• We add ground floor which that elevation is under the 1 st floor so we draw the gl floor by using
level tool
• Create roof : first select level 2 then click the floor, we can change the floor thickness using
duplicate by 150 mm
• If we need the exterior walls connect to the ground floor we select
one exterior wall and the right click - select all instances – in entire project - go to properties
– base constraint – ( then the top walls hanging so – left of top – modify wall – attach top tool
– click the top level
• if we need verandah in front of the building we edit the floor plan in level 1 for need shape
select the floor - left of the top – modify floor – edit boundary – go to level 1 – edit (delete or
draw )- click the ok button
• previous done we need to draw a wall from GL to level 1 ( by using any align wall to wall use
align tool, (attach top tool – click the top level 1 for appearance look )
• Draw a balcony set up in level2 we create the needed height walls and provide some space for
stair also in the level 2
• Add column in front architecture – column -architecture column insert - draw add change
dimensions
 Add stair

• Select stair – rail – select one type of railing – select level from to (level 1 to 2) -run- straight -
add also landing –
Edit type – we can change the tread , run , riser
Type 2 : select spiral stair – click the center – radius –( direction change – flip option )

Type 3 : center end spiral -select center- select start end – click – rotate (riser develop)
Type 4 : u or L shape
Type 5 : create sketch ……up

• Provide shaft : level 2- shaft opening -draw line – click ok tick - provide shaft constrain
• If we need stair GL to level 1 we add stair without railing
• We can create with or without riser by edit in – constructure - untick the riser

Class panel

• Create a level for class panel ( curtain wall) (base level and top level )
• Add curtain wall for needed space and levels ( architecture -wall – (in bottom)- curtain wall)
• Initially that wall nor visible so we select the wall and – modify walls – edit profile- close- draw
needed space
• If we need grid in curtain wall – select curtain wall – edit type - vertical grid – fixed distance like
horizonatal

Sun shade

• create level from windows bottom level to top level ( I create already for curtain walls)

• level1 – architecture -roof – roof by extrusion – pick a plane – ok – select a outer wall of exterior
wall – open view- level– w. top level -off set 0 – ok – draw by line tool-click correct – edit the
thickness of roof – change the extrusion end minus to plus ( needed ) - adjust any of go to
elevation and change

• if need side shade for window – wall – edit the thickness – in level w. base – draw a wall to outer
-top constrain [Link] – ( may use modify tool to use adjust and mirror tool , move tool )
 • can change the shape of the shade wall = correct elevation plan - edit profile – delete needed
shape and draw change shaped using line or arc

• likewise we add sunshades for all windows we select all element (with ctrl) -copy – multiple –
select base point – click the same base point in other windows

site components

• ground level -massing and site- topo surface – elevation (-1000) (GL Elevation)- place a point –
( place points if we needed points ) -click correct
