004 Creating Construction Details in Vectorworks 2008-2010 (Short Sharp Training) (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

I have seen many tips and tricks on creating drawings, but not many on creating construction drawings. When I was writing the manual on creating drawings, I wanted to cover creating construction details, but I felt that would have made the manual too long. So how do you create details? That is what we will be covering. We will need components to assemble into details. These could be pieces of timber, flashings, weatherboards (siding), fixings, hatching, and so on. Where do you make this stuff and where should you store it?I’ve seen a lot of tutorials about drawings, using viewports and so on, but very few tutorials about drawing your construction details. Someone even said it was brave of me to attempt this. This tutorial is not going to teach you the construction aspects of detailing for your part of the world, so I will not be worrying too much about vapor barriers, cold bridges, building standards and so on. This tutorial is about how to use Vectorworks to assemble your details.
