In part 1 of this SketchUp Tutorial for design and layout, learn the process for creating models that can be exported to Layout to create construction drawings. In this video, we specifically discuss:

  • Importing a Floor Plan Image
  • Setting Your Scale with the tape measure tool
  • Creating walls with the push/pull tool
  • Grouping and organizing your walls into layers

In part 2, we’ll start creating doors, windows, and other openings, as well as beginning to develop our interiors further.
