project 3 00:00:04.05 --> 00:00:06.07 and we are just trying to figure out 4 00:00:06.07 --> 00:00:08.00 some of the basic things 5 00:00:08.00 --> 00:00:11.00 that are going to kind of define our project. 6 00:00:11.00 --> 00:00:13.07 So one thing that we have to figure out 7 00:00:13.07 --> 00:00:17.06 in most of our projects is area calculations 8 00:00:17.06 --> 00:00:20.03 and so if you go over to your toolbox 9 00:00:20.03 --> 00:00:24.05 there is a tool in the Design drop down 10 00:00:24.05 --> 00:00:26.01 it's called Zones. 11 00:00:26.01 --> 00:00:28.00 So if you double click on that, 12 00:00:28.00 --> 00:00:33.07 Zones are a representation of space in three dimensions. 13 00:00:33.07 --> 00:00:38.07 So they can represent both volume and area, 14 00:00:38.07 --> 00:00:41.01 they have a few different categories. 15 00:00:41.01 --> 00:00:43.06 At the top we have categories and this is G. 16 00:00:43.06 --> 00:00:46.04 Let's use Site Area 17 00:00:46.04 --> 00:00:49.02 'cause that definitely is something that comes up often. 18 00:00:49.02 --> 00:00:52.01 You can adjust the zone height 19 00:00:52.01 --> 00:00:55.08 so if it was going to go more than the second floor 20 00:00:55.08 --> 00:00:57.01 there's a double height space 21 00:00:57.01 --> 00:00:58.07 or something of that nature 22 00:00:58.07 --> 00:01:00.09 and similar to the Fill tool 23 00:01:00.09 --> 00:01:03.02 it has a few different geometry methods 24 00:01:03.02 --> 00:01:05.09 that can be used to put it together. 25 00:01:05.09 --> 00:01:09.05 So we have a polygonal method, 26 00:01:09.05 --> 00:01:15.08 we also have one that will extend to the inside of a wall 27 00:01:15.08 --> 00:01:18.00 and then we have one that will extend 28 00:01:18.00 --> 00:01:20.05 to the reference line of a wall 29 00:01:20.05 --> 00:01:23.00 and we'll get into that a little bit later in the course 30 00:01:23.00 --> 00:01:26.07 and so we have what it looks like on the floor plan. 31 00:01:26.07 --> 00:01:28.08 So we can have a line around the edge 32 00:01:28.08 --> 00:01:32.02 and since I'm doing this site information 33 00:01:32.02 --> 00:01:33.07 I'm going to try to pick one 34 00:01:33.07 --> 00:01:37.08 that's kind of a site boundary line 35 00:01:37.08 --> 00:01:40.08 and I'm not too concerned about 36 00:01:40.08 --> 00:01:42.06 what it looks like on floor plan 37 00:01:42.06 --> 00:01:45.00 so I'm just going to leave it with no fill 38 00:01:45.00 --> 00:01:47.06 but again like the Fill tool itself, 39 00:01:47.06 --> 00:01:50.03 you can adjust the origin of the fill 40 00:01:50.03 --> 00:01:52.01 and then the Zone Stamp 41 00:01:52.01 --> 00:01:56.08 defines how that information that the zone produces 42 00:01:56.08 --> 00:01:59.05 is going to be reflected on the floor plan 43 00:01:59.05 --> 00:02:02.04 and then we have text style, 44 00:02:02.04 --> 00:02:04.06 we have some settings 45 00:02:04.06 --> 00:02:07.03 so what kind of content are we going to be showing. 46 00:02:07.03 --> 00:02:08.05 So the name 47 00:02:08.05 --> 00:02:10.06 and these are at different scales. 48 00:02:10.06 --> 00:02:15.05 So this content will only show at scales at one to 50 49 00:02:15.05 --> 00:02:18.00 and then you can do one to 100. 50 00:02:18.00 --> 00:02:20.09 So it will show different information 51 00:02:20.09 --> 00:02:22.05 when it's a reduced scale. 52 00:02:22.05 --> 00:02:25.06 So less information so it's not so cluttered 53 00:02:25.06 --> 00:02:28.05 and we can also adjust what it looks like 54 00:02:28.05 --> 00:02:31.05 in a three dimensional kind of aspect 55 00:02:31.05 --> 00:02:33.00 So you can put, 56 00:02:33.00 --> 00:02:38.05 what I typically do is I use one of these MEP colors 57 00:02:38.05 --> 00:02:41.03 so I'll use a red color 58 00:02:41.03 --> 00:02:45.02 but I might actually duplicate this surface 59 00:02:45.02 --> 00:02:47.03 and then make it more translucent 60 00:02:47.03 --> 00:02:49.08 so that I can do kind of a massing model 61 00:02:49.08 --> 00:02:52.01 and then you can also define 62 00:02:52.01 --> 00:02:55.01 how it's going to be calculating the information 63 00:02:55.01 --> 00:02:58.00 as well as the classification properties. 64 00:02:58.00 --> 00:03:01.08 Classification properties is a little bit more advanced 65 00:03:01.08 --> 00:03:04.07 but it is definitely something to be cognizant of 66 00:03:04.07 --> 00:03:06.08 and so we also have the layer 67 00:03:06.08 --> 00:03:07.06 that's going to be on. 68 00:03:07.06 --> 00:03:09.03 So this is pretty good for now 69 00:03:09.03 --> 00:03:10.06 and then I'm just going to adjust 70 00:03:10.06 --> 00:03:13.02 so that exterior line looks good. 71 00:03:13.02 --> 00:03:14.08 So I'll just say okay 72 00:03:14.08 --> 00:03:16.06 and so I'm just trying to figure out 73 00:03:16.06 --> 00:03:19.00 what the site area of this project is. 74 00:03:19.00 --> 00:03:24.03 So I'm going to go to the edge of the property line up 75 00:03:24.03 --> 00:03:29.02 and so I have it selected to go to the inner edge of a wall. 76 00:03:29.02 --> 00:03:30.03 We don't have any walls right now 77 00:03:30.03 --> 00:03:33.01 so we're just going to use the poly method 78 00:03:33.01 --> 00:03:34.04 and so I'm going to click there 79 00:03:34.04 --> 00:03:36.02 and just like the Fill tool 80 00:03:36.02 --> 00:03:39.01 it operates basically the same. 81 00:03:39.01 --> 00:03:42.06 So now I'm looking for that other edge 82 00:03:42.06 --> 00:03:44.05 or property corner 83 00:03:44.05 --> 00:03:47.03 and I'm going to go over to the, 84 00:03:47.03 --> 00:03:53.02 another property corner 85 00:03:53.02 --> 00:03:57.07 and let's go to the final property corner 86 00:03:57.07 --> 00:03:58.09 and just like with the fill 87 00:03:58.09 --> 00:04:00.05 you're going to have to close it. 88 00:04:00.05 --> 00:04:02.02 So I'm going to close it here 89 00:04:02.02 --> 00:04:05.04 and then it's going to give me this little hammerhead. 90 00:04:05.04 --> 00:04:06.03 This is asking me 91 00:04:06.03 --> 00:04:09.08 where do I want to put the Zone Stamp itself 92 00:04:09.08 --> 00:04:11.06 so I'll place it there 93 00:04:11.06 --> 00:04:12.08 and there we have it. 94 00:04:12.08 --> 00:04:18.01 So it's about 9,429 square feet 95 00:04:18.01 --> 00:04:20.08 and let me just change the name of that 96 00:04:20.08 --> 00:04:27.00 and I'll just put Site Area 97 00:04:27.00 --> 00:04:29.00 and one other thing I want to do, 98 00:04:29.00 --> 00:04:33.02 I want to identify what the footprint of this building is. 99 00:04:33.02 --> 00:04:34.07 So I'm going to go back to my zone. 100 00:04:34.07 --> 00:04:37.00 I'm going to change it from Site Area 101 00:04:37.00 --> 00:04:37.08 at the top here 102 00:04:37.08 --> 00:04:40.07 instead of going to the dialog box 103 00:04:40.07 --> 00:04:44.06 and I am just going to do G Building Footprint. 104 00:04:44.06 --> 00:04:45.09 So I click on that, 105 00:04:45.09 --> 00:04:47.08 I'm going to use the polygon method. 106 00:04:47.08 --> 00:04:49.07 I might want to change the color 107 00:04:49.07 --> 00:04:52.07 so it's a little bit more distinct. 108 00:04:52.07 --> 00:04:56.05 Let's see, yeah 109 00:04:56.05 --> 00:04:59.09 so the color is associated with the zone itself 110 00:04:59.09 --> 00:05:02.01 and so let me show you 111 00:05:02.01 --> 00:05:04.01 where the zone information can be found. 112 00:05:04.01 --> 00:05:05.02 So if you go to Options 113 00:05:05.02 --> 00:05:06.09 and then Zone Categories 114 00:05:06.09 --> 00:05:08.01 and click on that 115 00:05:08.01 --> 00:05:12.01 and you can create those categories that you want. 116 00:05:12.01 --> 00:05:13.07 These are the ones that come with ArchiCAD 117 00:05:13.07 --> 00:05:16.04 so there's about 15 of them 118 00:05:16.04 --> 00:05:18.03 but if you wanted to create a new one, 119 00:05:18.03 --> 00:05:20.09 you could create a category yourself 120 00:05:20.09 --> 00:05:22.04 and then you can also change 121 00:05:22.04 --> 00:05:25.06 what that stamp looks like when it's placed 122 00:05:25.06 --> 00:05:28.06 and let's place this one 123 00:05:28.06 --> 00:05:31.06 so let's just make sure I get Building Footprint 124 00:05:31.06 --> 00:05:36.08 and because I've already placed this fill previously, 125 00:05:36.08 --> 00:05:37.09 I could use that. 126 00:05:37.09 --> 00:05:38.07 So what I'm going to do 127 00:05:38.07 --> 00:05:40.07 is I'm going to turn off my trace. 128 00:05:40.07 --> 00:05:42.01 So if I turn off the trace, 129 00:05:42.01 --> 00:05:44.08 I'm not going to select anything that's behind there 130 00:05:44.08 --> 00:05:46.05 and it's only going to select the things 131 00:05:46.05 --> 00:05:49.00 that are on this active level. 132 00:05:49.00 --> 00:05:50.03 So if I click here, 133 00:05:50.03 --> 00:05:52.08 I'm just using my space bar 134 00:05:52.08 --> 00:05:53.09 and I click 135 00:05:53.09 --> 00:05:54.08 and then it's asking me 136 00:05:54.08 --> 00:05:56.07 where do I want to put that Zone Stamp 137 00:05:56.07 --> 00:05:58.01 and I click there 138 00:05:58.01 --> 00:06:03.00 and if I hide this fill, 139 00:06:03.00 --> 00:06:07.06 you can see that it's 1,850 square feet 140 00:06:07.06 --> 00:06:10.03 as the footprint of the building. 141 00:06:10.03 --> 00:06:11.02 So right there, 142 00:06:11.02 --> 00:06:15.01 now I have the beginnings of some of the documentation 143 00:06:15.01 --> 00:06:17.02 or the calculations I'm going to need 144 00:06:17.02 --> 00:06:19.02 to submit to the Building Department. 145 00:06:19.02 --> 00:06:21.03 I recommend getting familiar with that 146 00:06:21.03 --> 00:06:24.00 and we will definitely talk about zones 147 00:06:24.00 --> 00:06:26.01 as we kind of progress through this 148 00:06:26.01 --> 00:06:28.00 but this is a good way to get started 149 00:06:28.00 --> 00:06:31.02 and get through your kind of schematic design phase 150 00:06:31.02 --> 00:06:34.01 and I hope you have the ability to play around with this. 11444
