Week 3 Challenge

1.

Aim: To add floor option , set the thickness and to draw the grids for the ground plan.

Tools used :

• Architecture,Floor,Levels,Grids,Material,Thickness,Property browser

Procedure :

• Once you open the previous drawing we did in the 2^nd challenge . change the walls according to the requirement if necessary .
• From the architecture option click the floor tool .

• Once you click the floor tool , modify floor tool option is available.
• Click on the boundary line to select the boundaries of the layout.

• After selecting the boundaries, select the floor type you wish to add, and change the floor type.

• As per the question given, one should add grid to the layout .
• Horizontal grid lines to be named as a,b,c,d,e,..
• Vertical grid lines to be named as 1,2,3,4,5,6…

Result: with following the above steps we can draw floor plan for the previously drawn layout and draw grid lines for the ground plan.

2.

Aim: to add walls, modify the boundaries, and to select appropriate thickness and material for walls and floor.

Tools required : Level,View,Default 3D,Edit type,Property browser,Thickness,Structure,Duplicate.

Procedure:

• Once you select the floor in the ground plan view, we have to select the properties and choose edit types.
• Select duplicate and give desired type name
• Once done with the floor, select the wall and give it the desired thickness .
• Repeat the same process for all the walls

Theory :

1. From the thing I observed for connecting the walls rather than unconnected “up to level 1^st floor “ is beneficial
2. For modelling by height option is convenient.

Result: we have successfully modified the walls and floors

3.

Aim: utilize copy and paste options to align elements to a different level.

Tools used : Modify,Copy,Copy from clipboard,Paste,Paste from clipboard

Procedure :

• Once you are done drawing the layout in the ground floor, with the help of mouse select the required part to be copied to the second floor
• After selecting the required things , go to th modify menu and click on copy to clipboard option to copy
• After copying, go to the project browser and paste the copied layout in the secong floor oir level two.
• Then select the 3d view fromview menu and see the two floor view

Result : following the above steps , we are able to get the desired result and next floor is successfully completed.

4.

Aim: to make a layout of a desired residential unit

Tools used : Architecture tab,Walls,Trim
