In this session we wanted to look at scheduling and worksheets and how they could be connected to spaces to create a report. The report might want to list the areas and room names, but it could also be more sophisticated and report other requirements such as occupancy loading, number…
Spaces can be used at the early stages of the project to create the concept. You can use them to show areas and volumes, allowing you to create the plans quickly, as well as beating able to show the client a quick 3D model. Many clients struggle to visualise the…
Vectorworks spaces have the ability to create and read Adjacency Matrices. OK, but what are they and how do you read one. In simple terms, the Adjacent Matrix tells you the relationship between rooms. The Adjacancy Matrix uses and scale from o to 5. 0 means that the rooms have…
You do not have to accept the standard labels that come with Vectorworks. Vectorworks allows you to edit the labels that come as standard.
Spaces contain a lot of non-graphic information, information like the required room size, the actual room size, the organizational group, the building zone, etc. This information can be reported in a worksheet.
If the walls have already been drawn, you can use them to create spaces. There are two basic ways to create spaces from walls. The first way is to select the walls that create the boundary to the space and the other method creates a space from the inner boundary…
When you create space objects, it’s important to set your preferences first.
On larger projects it can be a challenge to create a list of all the rooms and their finishes. This manual looks at using the Vectorworks Space object to control the room finishes and create reports on the finishes.
Space objects in Vectorworks are very powerful and they have a lot of options. This means that you have to be aware of the options and settings in the Space Preferences. Once you have set the preferences the way that suits you, it is easy to create the spaces you…
Spaces in Vectorworks are special objects and they are very useful. Unfortunately, they are only available if you have Vectorworks Architect or Designer. If you have Vectorworks Landmark, you will not be able to use spaces. Spaces can be used to create conceptual models, quick 3D form studies, bulk and location…
