Whether you create your objects from scratch or import them from 3D Warehouse, it’s always a good idea to create the elements in your model as 3D objects, i.e., Groups and Components. Use the pencil or shape tools to trace out your 2D floor plan, and pull up walls, columns, and other building elements to create your building.ĭon’t have any plans? The SketchUp extension, Warehouse Blueprint, provides users with dynamic components such as a warehouse shell, selective racking, and a straight conveyor.
Transitioning from 2D to 3D will help you and your project stakeholders to experience your space, and better understand its scale, i.e., how big or small it really is.
