Floor Plan Extruding
In this activity, students will learn the correct processes for taking an existing floor plan and extruding a structure from it.
Students will have the opportunity to learn how to extrude walls, create door and window openings, draw doors and even create a roof design as well as use materials and components effectively.
You are going to have to do some research on your own on things like sizing for items, creating certain blocks and components, or even downloading from the 3d warehouse.
AVERAGE WALL HEIGHT FOR YOUR HOUSE- 8ft (unless you plan on having a large door for example, increase your wall height by 2ft increments.)
I have provided a floor plan below in which you can use to PRACTISE. Please do not submit your assignment using the floor plan below - find one from the internet and make sure it has dimensions for scalability. Finally, BE MINDFUL OF THE SIZE OF THE DOCUMENT ITSELF! Small documents will mean a very pixelated image once you enlarge it using the tape measure tool so choose a large document. As well, be mindful of the floor plan you choose - many homes will have decks, patios, angles and many jogs in the foundation. Be mindful of these when selecting your floor plan.
