Course Descriptor
This course is specifically designed for professionals who wish to get up and running in an office environment so that they can immediately start using the immense power of SketchUp Pro to deliver lightning fast information for planning, tender, and construction phases. This course has been designed by Paul Lee, Dip. Arch., B. Arch. Sc., ARIAI, who uses SketchUp as an architect in his own practise (www.aspirearchitecture.com), and has devised methods of use that are uniquely powerful and efficient. Paul has researched CAD standards for a number of years and has devised CAD tutorials to give candidates the benefit of years of his own experience in CAD drawing offices. Now this knowledge has been transferred to this unique SketchUp course that you cannot get anywhere else in the world.
This course covers the following areas among others:
"Vital things you may have missed when you were teaching yourself SketchUp"
Using Groups, Components Layers and Outliner to access the 3d model efficiently
Working with CAD: Import/ Export/ Do you need to use CAD so much?
Using Layout's graphic overlays to provide exceptional 2d and 3d information in conjunction with interactive SketchUp drawings
Viewsion's 2d workflow: Using SketchUp to provide detailed 2d construction information
SketchUp power tips and tricks for the professional
Proper nomenclature and use of Layers for the professional
Introduction to Dynamic Components (SketchUp 8)
Advanced SketchUp Course. €225 - Course Duration: 1 Day
This course introduces advanced modelling techniques, layer management, section tools, the import/export of CAD files, and landscape modelling techniques. You will gain the confidence and the know-how to try just about anything in SketchUp AND GET IT DONE! Due to the rigorous pace of the course and the complexity of the information that is covered - It is highly recommended that students take the Essentials 1 and Essentials 2 courses prior to enrolling in the Advanced Skills course
Google Geo-Modelling Class (course design by Google) €149 - Course Duration: Half Day (normally run with Essentials 2 Course)
The Mastering 3D Using SketchUp: Geomodeling Training course provides students with a comprehensive
overview of the process and benefits of exploring the interoperability of SketchUp and Google Earth, and a deeper
look into the Google 3D Warehouse.
Google Advanced landscape (course design by Google) €225 - Course Duration: 1 Day
Visualizing and communicating spaces in three dimensions is critical to the success of the design of architectural
spaces. The interplay of light, color, space and form make exciting spaces function successfully. Traditional
methods for exploring these issues are very labor intensive. Use of computer software has enabled quicker (and
sometimes more accurate) study models to be generated and explored.
Successful integration of modeling software within a design-related practice hinges on how well the computer
information can be used, not only inside the computer (to other software packages), but also outside the computer
to communicate to clients and review agencies. The output from your SketchUp computer models may be
rendered in many different ways; from straight computer printouts using Styles, to raster images for retouching
with photo editing software, to vector polygon graphics reworked with illustration software, to producing accurate
perspective underlays for developing hand renderings.
Google LayOut 3 (course design by Google) €225 - Course Duration: 1 Day
The LayOut 3 course will cover the fundamental principles of LayOut as a 2D drafting and presentation tool.
The LayOut 3 course ultimately provides you with the strategies and techniques you need to effectively and efficiently present your 3D SketchUp models in digital and print formats.
