Use the Draft Wire tool to create a closed wire. Now we are ready to create a simple building with closed walls, two doors and two windows.ĥ. Zoom out of the 3D view if you are too close to the grid. Set lines at every 50 mm, with major lines every 20 lines (every meter), and 1000 lines in total (the grid covers an area of 50 m x 50 m).Ĥ.

You can change the grid appearance in the menu Edit → Preferences → Draft → Grid and snapping → Grid. Use the Draft ToggleGrid button to show a grid with enough resolution.

For example, MKS (m/kg/s/degree) is good for dealing with distances in a typical building moreover, set the number of decimals to 4, to consider even the smallest fractions of a meter.ģ. Make sure your units are set correctly in the menu Edit → Preferences → General → Units. Open FreeCAD, create a new empty document, and switch to the Arch Workbench.Ģ.

See also the following page for some videos on how to work with windows and doors. It uses the Draft Workbench, the Arch Workbench, and the TechDraw Workbench.Ĭommon tools used are: Draft Grid, Draft Snap, Draft Wire, Arch Wall, Arch Window, Arch SectionPlane, and TechDraw ArchView. This tutorial shows how to place Arch Windows and Doors in a building model, how to display them as open in the 3D view, and how to create a 2D drawing (plan and elevation projection) for the model. 8 Making an elevation projection of the building.
