MASTERING THE ART OF
3D CONSTRUCTION MODELING

This book is an update to our classic book 3D Construction Modeling, first published in late 2005 using the early @Last Software version of SketchUp.

SketchUp hasn’t really changed a lot since then for construction modeling, but this book is much different.

THE BATHAUS

Schematic construction model for budget review and engineering calculations. Ideas to test a 3D net-based construction document.

The bat house stands on a neighboring ranch to control mosquitoes and maintain a natural environmental balance (without pesticides).

THE NEST

This little house continues to be of interest to the small house community. Unlike other tiny houses, the NEST is a steel frame rigid structure engineered to withstand the hurricane force winds in Florida.
