Student assignment A2 question

Do you want us to do 3 separate 3D files for each floor plan or do we make them and just join them all at once under one file?

You should have one 3-D model file or 2-D drawing which is a projection. Place a view of the 3-D model on to your title block and print the 3-D view with title block as a pdf as part of your submission.

You may for extra credit include other views of your models of the case study project.  But first focus on the accuracy and depth of information on your required submissions.

CAD lines going all over the place

Question: Why are my lines going all over the place when I switched to pay-per-view from model?

Your model space drawings were created with three-dimensional information, you are actually drawing in a 45° view. So when you switch to a straight top view in your paper space view the drawing became distorted. Notice the view orientation boxes in the top right-hand corner.

Note you should dimension the grid lines not the column widths in your grid drawing.
