ArchiCAD Tutorial | How to Trace 2D Drawings to Quickly Create a 3D Model

Here is an outline of the process:


Create a new ArchiCAD project Import the DWG files into separate Worksheets and coordinate their origin points Set up the Story Levels to correspond to the project heights Use Virtual Trace to reference the ground floor DWG as a background while working on the ground floor plan Move the original MasterTemplate base slabs, elevation and section markers, and gridlines to the vicinity of the traced DWG Set up the wall tool for the proper thickness and height, then trace the outline of the building Repeat for the upper story Place windows in the walls using the plan DWGs as references for location and width Open each of the Elevation viewpoints and correspond the DWG Worksheets for trace reference Adjust window heights, types and glazing patterns to match the original drawings Repeat for the doors, first on plan, then in elevation Draw the first roof piece on plan by tracing over the roof outline from the original drawing Coordinate the height and thickness of the roof in each elevation Use these adjusted settings to create the rest of the roof system on the lower level, then repeat the process for the upper roofs Trim walls to the roofs to clean up the model Adjust some of the windows and doors to have arched tops with bricks above Review the 3D model, elevations and plans, which now correspond beautifully to the original drawings
