Architectural Design with SketchUp This shell will be executed as a lofted shape. For this, we need the Curviloft or the Extrusion Tools plugin. 1. Create three parallel, vertical arches as shown here. 2. Now scale them so that they all have different heights and widths. 3. Highlight all three curves and select the first tool (the Loft tool) from the Curviloft plugin’s toolbar. This creates a temporary shell on which you can still make modifications (move vertices, for example). 98
Chapter 4 Using Plugins Effectively 4. Once you are satisfied with the shell’s shape, left-click the mouse to accept. You should now have a shell that is smoothly defined by the three guiding arches. It is actually quite interesting to see that if you use the Extrude Edges by Loft tool from the Extrusion Tools plugin for this, you will get a different lofted shape, which resembles the image shown here. Plugins for Architectural Modeling 1001bit Tools By Goh Chun Hee—$29 [www.1001bit.com] This is a large collection of architecture-related tools. It currently comes in a standard and a Pro version and even has a shadow-analysis tool as an add-on. Tools vary from general modeling helpers (fillet, chamfer, arrays, etc.) to tools for creating walls, openings, stairs, floors, roofs (including rafters and purlins), and doors and windows. BuildingStructureTools By tak2hata—Free [5, 6] This plugin helps with creating beams, columns, slabs, and the like. You can customize the database of shapes that it ships with and add your own profiles. HouseBuilder By S. Hurlbut, D. Bur—Free [3] If you want to model each stud, rafter, and joist in a light-framed house, then give this plugin a try. It comes in both metric and imperial versions and adds a toolbar that gives you easy access to all of its tools. You can use the Wall tool to create a stud-framed wall based on two selected points. To add a window or a door, select the appropriate tool and pick a location along a wall. The 99
