That’s because a major part of successful training lies in the people skills. Try to find a trainer who has had significant experience in presenting both live and online courses. What to look for when booking a training course I’ve been running live and online training courses for most of my career, so I’ve provided some thoughts here for you to help navigate the world of online training-whether you are looking to brush up your skills, or become a tutor yourself. This helps us cover all markets at all times. I’m located in the UK, which is quite some way from the Head Office in Auckland, but this means I can carry out training and support to the European and American markets while they are sleeping. One topic that kept coming up was training-where to get it, how to get it and what topics to look for.Īs one of the online tutors for Cadimage Group (the folks in New Zealand who make the Cadimage Tools), I run courses in both ARCHICAD and the Tools. These tools are perfect for finalising your architectural drawings.Some time ago Jared wrote an article on BIM terminology on our Cadimage blog, and since that time we’ve been talking about creating an article for Shoegnome. This lesson explains how to add annotations to your model & drawings, such as grids, labels & dimensions. This lesson covers adding & editing assets & objects, externally & internally.

However, they also add to your 3D scenes if you choose to render out your Archicad model.

Adding assets to your model, such as furniture, will drastically improve the appearance of your floor plans, sections & elevations when viewed in 2D.

The lesson then finishes off by showing you how to model stairs & how to model them bespoke to match those within the Villa Savoye. This lesson covers everything you need to understand internal & external doors in Archicad.

After windows are inserted we explain how they can be edited afterward to make for a streamlined design process, when required. The facades are detailed up in this lesson by using every aspect of the window tool.
