SRT II:Introduction to SketchUp Mr. Davis Day 1 Do not log in yet!
Objective • SWBAT • Identify the uses of CAD software by building models in SketchUp
2-D • Maps
2-D • Diagram / Plan
2-D vs. 3-D • Traditional 3-D drawing – Isometric projection
Limits of 3-D in 2-D? • Hard to rotate / see from all sides
Solution? • Physical model • Common in architecture, engineering • Virtual model • 1970’s – replicating drafting • 1980’s – more powerful computers, better displays • Either 2 or 3-D
Modern CAD / CADD • Full object specifications • Dimensions • Material • Finishes • Dynamic systems (forces) • Now includes CAM (CNC) • Interfaces to 3-D printing
Trimble (Google) SketchUp • Free CAD solution • Resources on I:~\Davis\Templates\SRT II\SketchupIntro • Also – YouTube tutorials; free tutorial files (Google 3Dwarehouse) Now log in to your machine and open up SketchUp • Follow along – SketchUp Self-paced tutorial • SPT_Intro.skp
Step 2 • Individually – Work through SPT-A_Start_Drawing.skp files 1-3
Assignment 1 • See the handout on the I: drive • Finish before next class (saved in your H: drive)
Objective • SWBAT • Identify the uses of CAD software by building models in SketchUp
