These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated: 1 00:00:00.05 --> 00:00:02.07 - [Instructor] So let's talk about library parts. 2 00:00:02.07 --> 00:00:04.02 So library parts 3 00:00:04.02 --> 00:00:08.08 that come with ArchiCAD are pretty comprehensive 4 00:00:08.08 --> 00:00:13.01 but they might not necessarily represent the exact object 5 00:00:13.01 --> 00:00:15.05 that you're trying to place. 6 00:00:15.05 --> 00:00:16.08 So for instance, 7 00:00:16.08 --> 00:00:19.04 if we have some furniture 8 00:00:19.04 --> 00:00:21.07 and we go through here 9 00:00:21.07 --> 00:00:24.04 and we have a couple bookshelves 10 00:00:24.04 --> 00:00:26.07 and drawers and things like that, 11 00:00:26.07 --> 00:00:30.09 they might not necessarily be exactly what you want. 12 00:00:30.09 --> 00:00:33.08 So, with that being said, 13 00:00:33.08 --> 00:00:40.01 ArchiCAD has developed a new method for creating objects 14 00:00:40.01 --> 00:00:44.09 and so if we go to the ArchiCAD website 15 00:00:44.09 --> 00:00:46.08 on the sidebar here 16 00:00:46.08 --> 00:00:50.09 we have this little expanding kind of menu bar 17 00:00:50.09 --> 00:00:55.00 and if we go to support 18 00:00:55.00 --> 00:01:01.03 and we go down here to Downloads, 19 00:01:01.03 --> 00:01:04.03 we will see some of the downloads 20 00:01:04.03 --> 00:01:08.05 that are available from Graphisoft's website. 21 00:01:08.05 --> 00:01:10.04 So if we go to Library 22 00:01:10.04 --> 00:01:15.08 and we clicked on this Library Part Maker 23 00:01:15.08 --> 00:01:20.07 and so this is the Library Part Maker's kind of webpage 24 00:01:20.07 --> 00:01:24.09 and you can download it for Mac or Windows 25 00:01:24.09 --> 00:01:26.03 and so I've already done that 26 00:01:26.03 --> 00:01:29.03 and I've gone through the installation process 27 00:01:29.03 --> 00:01:30.09 and so once you've done that, 28 00:01:30.09 --> 00:01:33.05 if you go to Design 29 00:01:33.05 --> 00:01:36.04 and then you go to Design Extras, 30 00:01:36.04 --> 00:01:40.08 there's this Library Part Maker option here. 31 00:01:40.08 --> 00:01:42.00 So once we open that up, 32 00:01:42.00 --> 00:01:45.02 it gives us this option here. 33 00:01:45.02 --> 00:01:46.02 So what we're going to do 34 00:01:46.02 --> 00:01:49.02 is we're going to quickly create a table 35 00:01:49.02 --> 00:01:51.09 and so what I'll do 36 00:01:51.09 --> 00:01:54.09 is I'm just going to grab a slab. 37 00:01:54.09 --> 00:01:58.04 I'm going to make this a little bit smaller either way 38 00:01:58.04 --> 00:02:01.01 and I'm going to make the thickness 39 00:02:01.01 --> 00:02:04.09 of the table top two inches 40 00:02:04.09 --> 00:02:07.03 and then I'm going to look at the material 41 00:02:07.03 --> 00:02:10.04 and I'm going to make it a wood. 42 00:02:10.04 --> 00:02:13.01 We'll just use OSB for now 43 00:02:13.01 --> 00:02:18.08 and I'm going to set the height of it to be, 44 00:02:18.08 --> 00:02:21.09 let's just make it 42 inches. 45 00:02:21.09 --> 00:02:23.08 I'm going to start by clicking 46 00:02:23.08 --> 00:02:30.06 and I'm just going to make it a four foot by eight foot table 47 00:02:30.06 --> 00:02:33.08 and I'm going to give it some legs 48 00:02:33.08 --> 00:02:35.08 and so I'll pick some legs. 49 00:02:35.08 --> 00:02:40.06 I'll just make them wood structural 50 00:02:40.06 --> 00:02:42.03 and let's see here. 51 00:02:42.03 --> 00:02:44.05 I'm going to take this off 52 00:02:44.05 --> 00:02:48.05 and I'm going to make them also 40 inches 53 00:02:48.05 --> 00:02:52.07 since the table top itself is 42 inches 54 00:02:52.07 --> 00:02:57.07 and I'll make them four by four thickness 55 00:02:57.07 --> 00:03:03.08 and let's just do something here 56 00:03:03.08 --> 00:03:05.05 and so when I click in here 57 00:03:05.05 --> 00:03:08.02 just going to drop this leg here. 58 00:03:08.02 --> 00:03:10.04 I'm going to move it to the corner 59 00:03:10.04 --> 00:03:14.07 and I'll probably just move it in three inches. 60 00:03:14.07 --> 00:03:18.02 So I'm just tabbing and clicking into there 61 00:03:18.02 --> 00:03:20.06 so I get three inches 62 00:03:20.06 --> 00:03:28.09 and let's just mirror these. 63 00:03:28.09 --> 00:03:34.02 So just using shortcut command to mirror 64 00:03:34.02 --> 00:03:37.07 and copy it 65 00:03:37.07 --> 00:03:39.05 and I'm going to do the same thing here. 66 00:03:39.05 --> 00:03:43.01 I'm going to mirror and copy it. 67 00:03:43.01 --> 00:03:46.05 So my shortcut command is Ctrl + M for that 68 00:03:46.05 --> 00:03:50.02 and then I'm just using the option command 69 00:03:50.02 --> 00:03:52.09 to make a copy of it. 70 00:03:52.09 --> 00:03:55.08 So let's look at that in 3D. 71 00:03:55.08 --> 00:04:00.02 So I'm just going to select it 72 00:04:00.02 --> 00:04:07.06 and I'm going to view in 3D 73 00:04:07.06 --> 00:04:16.03 and so there is my table looks okay 74 00:04:16.03 --> 00:04:17.08 and so what I'm going to do 75 00:04:17.08 --> 00:04:19.08 is I'm going to go back to the floor plan 76 00:04:19.08 --> 00:04:24.08 and now I have this Library Part Maker option here. 77 00:04:24.08 --> 00:04:26.00 So the first thing I'm going to do 78 00:04:26.00 --> 00:04:27.05 is I'm going to select the area 79 00:04:27.05 --> 00:04:30.03 that I want to include in my design. 80 00:04:30.03 --> 00:04:33.07 So let's just make a box around there 81 00:04:33.07 --> 00:04:36.02 and so now I have the design. 82 00:04:36.02 --> 00:04:38.03 I'm going to do one other thing 83 00:04:38.03 --> 00:04:45.03 is I'm going to explode this object. 84 00:04:45.03 --> 00:04:50.07 So if I go down to Edit and then Reshape 85 00:04:50.07 --> 00:04:55.03 and then if I go down to Explode 86 00:04:55.03 --> 00:04:59.05 and I'm going to keep the original elements there 87 00:04:59.05 --> 00:05:01.04 and I'll tell you why in a second. 88 00:05:01.04 --> 00:05:03.06 So let's just explode that. 89 00:05:03.06 --> 00:05:04.08 So that means that 90 00:05:04.08 --> 00:05:07.07 all the three dimensional objects are there 91 00:05:07.07 --> 00:05:11.03 but also I have a two dimensional line 92 00:05:11.03 --> 00:05:13.09 of what I was just looking at 93 00:05:13.09 --> 00:05:17.09 and so if I click on here 94 00:05:17.09 --> 00:05:20.08 and I go down 95 00:05:20.08 --> 00:05:26.05 and if I make a marquee around this area 96 00:05:26.05 --> 00:05:30.09 and then I go to the Line Tool 97 00:05:30.09 --> 00:05:34.08 and I just push Command A. 98 00:05:34.08 --> 00:05:38.00 So looks like it might be a polyline tool. 99 00:05:38.00 --> 00:05:41.08 So there's the line elements 100 00:05:41.08 --> 00:05:47.01 and I am going to go over here 101 00:05:47.01 --> 00:05:53.02 and I'm going to say the 2D full is that selection 102 00:05:53.02 --> 00:05:59.09 and then I'm going to select all the objects, 103 00:05:59.09 --> 00:06:02.04 the three dimensional pieces 104 00:06:02.04 --> 00:06:06.05 and I'm going to assign that to 3D full 105 00:06:06.05 --> 00:06:11.01 and I am not going to adjust the properties 106 00:06:11.01 --> 00:06:12.01 but if I needed to 107 00:06:12.01 --> 00:06:14.09 I can import properties 108 00:06:14.09 --> 00:06:17.02 and then there's another option here, 109 00:06:17.02 --> 00:06:20.03 what property listings do you want 110 00:06:20.03 --> 00:06:24.00 so you could use the National BIM Standard 111 00:06:24.00 --> 00:06:28.00 or you could use the ARCHICAD Listing Parameters 112 00:06:28.00 --> 00:06:29.09 and I'm going to go in Details 113 00:06:29.09 --> 00:06:33.00 and so I've already created 114 00:06:33.00 --> 00:06:35.06 a three dimensional representation of this 115 00:06:35.06 --> 00:06:37.03 so if I went into here 116 00:06:37.03 --> 00:06:39.06 and I want to adjust it, 117 00:06:39.06 --> 00:06:43.00 I'm just creating a three dimensional image 118 00:06:43.00 --> 00:06:45.00 from what I actually have 119 00:06:45.00 --> 00:06:47.09 and then I could adjust any of the information 120 00:06:47.09 --> 00:06:50.01 in here as necessary. 121 00:06:50.01 --> 00:06:51.09 So let's do one thing here 122 00:06:51.09 --> 00:06:55.05 and so now we go to Check and Save 123 00:06:55.05 --> 00:06:57.08 and I'm going to make it an object 124 00:06:57.08 --> 00:06:59.04 because it doesn't really fit into 125 00:06:59.04 --> 00:07:01.08 any of these other kind of parameters 126 00:07:01.08 --> 00:07:03.09 and then if I say Check, 127 00:07:03.09 --> 00:07:07.07 it's saying that it's missing origin 128 00:07:07.07 --> 00:07:10.02 for 2D and 3D 129 00:07:10.02 --> 00:07:12.04 and then it says some elements 130 00:07:12.04 --> 00:07:16.02 have no component type assigned. 131 00:07:16.02 --> 00:07:17.09 So I'm going to do something here. 132 00:07:17.09 --> 00:07:21.05 So one of the requirements for creating an object 133 00:07:21.05 --> 00:07:23.09 is to assign the origin 134 00:07:23.09 --> 00:07:25.04 which you can see here. 135 00:07:25.04 --> 00:07:32.05 So if I go down to my Level Dimension Tool 136 00:07:32.05 --> 00:07:36.05 and I'm going to just assign the origin here 137 00:07:36.05 --> 00:07:44.05 and then if I go back to the Define Library Part 138 00:07:44.05 --> 00:07:49.07 and I select everything that's signed 139 00:07:49.07 --> 00:07:54.06 and so let's, just a sec here 140 00:07:54.06 --> 00:07:59.03 and we'll do 3D 141 00:07:59.03 --> 00:08:03.03 and then if we go to the 2D Symbol, 142 00:08:03.03 --> 00:08:13.06 I'm going to actually put another origin 143 00:08:13.06 --> 00:08:18.06 and let's go back and check it. 144 00:08:18.06 --> 00:08:22.00 So right now it's giving me a yellow warning 145 00:08:22.00 --> 00:08:24.08 but I can still make the object. 146 00:08:24.08 --> 00:08:28.01 So here is kind of the parameters 147 00:08:28.01 --> 00:08:32.01 that are associated with the object itself 148 00:08:32.01 --> 00:08:34.09 and I can go to Save 149 00:08:34.09 --> 00:08:41.01 and then I can embed that into my projects library 150 00:08:41.01 --> 00:08:45.05 and now if I go over to my Object Tool, 151 00:08:45.05 --> 00:08:50.01 I've already got this library object 152 00:08:50.01 --> 00:08:53.01 embedded in the library of the project 153 00:08:53.01 --> 00:08:55.06 and I can look at it in 3D, 154 00:08:55.06 --> 00:08:57.03 I can look in an elevation 155 00:08:57.03 --> 00:08:59.04 and then I can place it. 156 00:08:59.04 --> 00:09:02.03 So I'm just going to place that object there 157 00:09:02.03 --> 00:09:05.09 and so there is the object that I created 158 00:09:05.09 --> 00:09:13.03 so I'm going to just look at this in 3D 159 00:09:13.03 --> 00:09:14.06 and so there we have it, 160 00:09:14.06 --> 00:09:19.00 we have this object that we've quickly created 161 00:09:19.00 --> 00:09:24.00 and we can manipulate the color 162 00:09:24.00 --> 00:09:27.01 and some of the other kind of properties of it 163 00:09:27.01 --> 00:09:31.06 but this is a great way to kind of quickly create objects 164 00:09:31.06 --> 00:09:34.03 that you're going to be using over and over, 165 00:09:34.03 --> 00:09:38.05 objects that might be custom or unique 166 00:09:38.05 --> 00:09:41.05 that you really want to represent accurately 167 00:09:41.05 --> 00:09:44.01 in your project 168 00:09:44.01 --> 00:09:47.06 and so that's the Library Part Maker, 169 00:09:47.06 --> 00:09:51.03 very unique tool with ArchiCAD 170 00:09:51.03 --> 00:09:53.07 that will help you generate information 171 00:09:53.07 --> 00:09:56.04 that will be useful in your project. 12913
