SketchUp For Builders On-Demand

What You'll Get: 

  • Easy, Fast, Intuitive 3D Modeling
  • Nearly 2 hours of instruction 

The tool that many builders reach for to help them, their team, and their clients visualize a project in three dimensions is Sketchup. Drawing and visual planning play an important role in building, whether it's a hand-drawn sketch or a CAD rendering. Two dimensional drawings have obvious limitations on a job site, so imagine if you could easily draw important details on the spot in three dimensions? Sketchup gives you that ability. This software can help you build models to describe your idea to a client or dissect a detail with team members. This course will outline the basic tools in the software and show how you can start by building a 2x4 and work your way up to a whole house.

What You'll Learn:

  • Draw and create objects
  • Utilize essential tools to create complex assemblies
  • Build real models of built ins, kitchens, whole homes
  • Use Layout tools to export your models

Running time: approximately 2 hours
