BIM_SIG_052 Architect Special Interest Group August 2014 (pm)

In the session we looked at importing a DXF file of a complex site, using this information to create a Vectorworks site model and then creating a car park and road for this site.
 

Topics Covered:

• importing a DXF file
• how Vectorworks site model calculates its information
• creating a site model
• site model settings
• using classes to control major and minor contours
• 3D display settings
• drawing a polygon to represent a road and car parking
• converting the polygon into an object that can be used to modify the site and creating grade limits for the site modifier
• editing the 3D height of the vertices on the site modifier
• editing the grade limits
