  • SST_1607 – From 2D Drawing To BIM

    Just lately, I have been teaching several users who want to move from using a workflow to using Building Information Modelling (3D workflow). In the past, I had several users who would say “I want to get to the under my belt first then look at 3D.” This suggests that…

  • 3D Modeling Special Interest Group – June 2016 (am)

    In this session we looked at ways that a 3D drawer object could be manipulated to create various widths, controlling symbol insertion points, and creating a wall recess.

  • Vectorworks Tip 442 – Creating A Cutout In A Curved Roof

    Once you have the curved roof, you can use solid objects to cut holes in the roof. If you combine the solid objects first, then you can cut all the holes at the same time with one operation, using Subtract Solids.

  • 3D Modeling Special Interest Group – May 2016 (am)

    In this session we covered several 3D creation tools to create curving surfaces, projecting object to these surfaces, using contours to create a new object, and creating accurate production drawings from a 3D object.

  • 3D Modeling Special Interest Group – April 2016 (am)

    In this session we looked at various ways to create a bath object using several different 3D tool and commands, then we applied some of the same tools to creating a 3D Bookcase, finally converting it into an Auto Hybrid.

    Chicago Bean (Cloud Gate) Cloud Gate is a public sculpture by Indian-born British artist Anish Kapoor, that is the centerpiece of AT&T Plaza at Millennium Park in the Loop community area of Chicago, Illinois. this culture has been used by Vectorworks as the icon for the Vectorworks design summit being…

  • cadmovie1604_14 – Subdivision Modeling – Part 14

    Sunscreen In this exercise we want to create a curving sunscreen. This exercise uses subdivisions modelling along with some standard 3D modelling (subtract solid) to give the desired result.
