Join Dave Schultze for an in-depth discussion in this video Generating the building envelope, part of Architectural Site & Envelope in Rhino.
- [Voiceover] Next up, we focus on drawing some walls…in plan view.…Now to keep things moving along,…I'm going to focus on the exterior envelope only.…The interior walls, along with details and finishes,…will be covered in the following course.…I'll be using a simple three part strategy;…first, let's assume all the walls will be solid…and closed volumes.…Second, we can add doors and windows punched out later,…and third, I'm going to utilize nearby geometry for snapping…or some of the vertical guides we've already talked about.…
Let's to go the back porch…and start building some walls there.…This should be a refresher, but I'm going…to use the edges here as if they're curves…whenever possible.…Under Curved Tools go ahead and do the Offset Curve.…I'm going to select this edge,…remember there's no curve there,…and the distance I'm going to go is three,…so I'm going to do that one more time,…select that curve, right click to repeat the command.…This time I'm going to go 1.5 feet, Enter.…
That's the thickness of the wall I'm going to use,…
