A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
The architectural tutorial uses the Jefferson County Courthouse building, located in Lakewood, Colorado, as its inspiration. It also utilizes SketchUp process modeling. This chapter tests the drafting and modeling skills, and focuses on the construction of a complex building from scratch. One can draft an intricate floor plate, generate an involved building massing, and apply a set of custom window and door components to finalize the structure. The chapter also shows how to work with arcs and circle edges and how to graft components onto curved surfaces. Extruded 3D faces originating from arcs or circle edges are constructed of faceted faces. The number of faceted faces is equal to the number of sides that compose the arc or circle. Components, such as windows and doors, can be affixed to the individual faces of a curvature. Faceted faces can interfere with a component.
