This chapter introduces the following Flatwork Base concepts: arranging vegetation and site‐furnishing components; placing components in a logical order and creating; and exporting scenes. It discusses how and why components such as vegetation and site furnishings are relocated when working with SketchUp. The chapter elucidates two different methods of arrangement: the Accuracy method and the Speed method. The 2D plan image provides accurate locations for all vegetation and site furnishings. After the components are imported and placed on the 2D plan image, they can be relocated to an identical location on the Flatwork Base. Placing components in a specific order can help streamline component layout, maintain layer organization, and optimize computer performance. Three‐ dimensional trees are highly desirable components; they add realism, scale, and aesthetics. The detailed 3D trees coupled with Shadows will make navigation impossible even on the best computer systems.
