STEP 2 :-
- Now load the furniture and other required items
Step 3:-
Step 4:-
- After assigning all items 3d view
Step 5:-
- Now using grid option in toolbar as shown in dwg
Final Result
2) Add walls based on the floor layout. Pick lines or use the draw tool to modify the boundary of walls. Use the property browser to select appropriate material and thickness for walls. After creating the walls verify using the property browser to see if the top and bottom of the walls are constrained.
a. Based on your observation, what is beneficial for connecting walls with associated levels rather than being Unconnected
b. Which option is convenient for modeling walls, By Height or By Depth?
Ans.
Aim:- To draw tool to modify the boundary of walls, and use the property browser to select appropriate material and thickness for walls
After creating the walls verify using the property browser to see if the top and bottom of the walls are constrained.

b. Which option is convenient for modeling walls, By Height or By Depth
Procedure :-
Step :1
- First we select the wall as shown in fig
- Now click on edit to change material
Step 2:-
Step 3:-
Step 4:-
Now material is applied as shown in dwg
Step 5:- a. Based on your observation, what is beneficial for connecting walls with associated levels rather than being Unconnected
Step 6:-
Level hieght is changed at 20' but height of wall is same
Step 7:-
Final Result :-
- Successfully material applied to wall
- Top and bottom wall are constrained
- Beneficial for connecting walls with associated levels rather than being Unconnected are also done
- Height option are convinent for modelling wall
3) Copy the model elements ( wall, floor ) modelled to Ground Floor Level and paste it aligned to First Floor Level . Use modify tab to utilize copy and paste options to align
elements to a different level
