Tutorial for using Sketchup

-First,open Sketchup program from desktop.

-Click window then click on preferences to change the template to Architecture Design in
millimeters format.

-Click window then click on model info find length units and change the format to
decimal and with millimeter and change the precision to 0mm.

-Click file import the auto cad plans and elevations of gazebo into sketch up. Before that,
click options to make sure it is import to sketchup is in millimeter.

-Click File and choose import. Import all the plans, elevations from autocad to sketchup.

-After the plans and elevations import, find the tool that call rotate and another tool call
move to rotate the plans and elevation and move them to suitable and correct grid line
position. Then, right click the mouse to lock them. Click window and click on style
change it to engineering style.

-Click window then click on layer to create and rename a layer and selected the object in
sketchup select them according to layer you create by editing from entity info.


Add new layer name such as 3D column, draw the line according to the plan and use
(push) to push up each column height to the same height with elevation level. Compile
into component, highlight one of the column and click M+CTRL then just place the copy
column to the rest of their position.

The same thing happen with the 3D Floor Slab, you also needed to be compile it into
component to prevent mixture with others layers.

Then, create another new layer and name it as 3D Railing. Following the form of the
railing and push it to make it 3D or different thickness with others around the whole
Gazebo.

Then, go to layer to create another new layer and name it as 3D Deco Roof & 3D
Sunshading . Push all the models from the elevation to make sure all the line on right way.
And make component after complete.

The final part of the GAZEBO is the roof part ,pull the height of the roof from roof plan and find
the height of the roof from the elevations. After that, make it into a component before you
move the roof to the top of the model.

Adjust the roof while putting on top of the Gazebo according to the sample from elevations.

-Next click window find materials and select the material you want according to the layer.

-This is the Gazebo after finished applying materials.

-Select whole Gazebo and explode it until the explode word cannot been click.
After that, we export the GAZEBO model into 3D MODEL , click the FILE > EXPORT >3D MODEL
before we import to LUMION.


-Click File then click on export 3d graphic, and export it and make sure it is in collada file (dae).














Tutorial of using LUMION.

-Open Lumion program from desktop and select whatever background that you think is
suitable for your model.Example, Fluffy Clouds,Sunny day and so on.

-At the right bottom corner got a ? symbol got give a basic of using tool of Lumion.

-Click import at the left bottom corner and add a new model then open the gazebo with
dae file that save before.

-Find a surface and click it. The model is insert to lumion.

-Click the weather can change sun direction, sun height. It will change the shadow occur.
It can also change the cloud, fog, lighting and camera.
-Click landscape can raise up, lower , flatten, jiltter and smooth the ground. This can use
to made hill, lake and many more.

-Click object can put in many object for example tree. Click in tree symbol and chose one

wall.

-Use offset tool to make a frame and push it to have a window frame.


-Make a new glass layer and draw a rectangular at middle of frame and adjust it opacity.
It will become translucent

-Done 3D windows and make it into a component.

For the roof model we must to go to the 2D elevation on the wall to get the correct
dimension of the roof .
Draw the LINE out the roof size and go to another side of the elevation to get the correct
scale and PUSH THE SAERFES until we reach to the elevation. Make sure you make it
into a component after done .

To make sure all the floor will be correct so we push M > CTRL and MOVE to copy all
the wall window and push X > NUMBER to how many floor or how many step you
want to copy It.

And now the tourist house model was done .
