Master the art of 3D modelling with our Certificate Course in SketchUp, tailored for architects, interior designers, product designers, and engineering professionals. This course takes you from the basics of the SketchUp interface to advanced tools and plugins, enabling you to create precise, detailed, and professional 3D models. With practical exercises and expert guidance, you’ll gain the skills to design, visualize, and present your ideas effectively.

What You’ll Learn:

  • Introduction & Basics – Understanding SketchUp UI & environment, mouse operations (Orbit, Pan, Zoom), concept of 2D to 3D with Push/Pull, basic shapes (Line, Rectangle, Circle, Polygon, Arc, Pie, Freehand), entity info, erase tool, precision drawing, and unit setup.
  • Navigation & View Control – Views (Top, Front, Iso), projections, zoom tools, controlling segments, selection methods, style toolbar, essential shortcuts, and basic modification tools (Move, Rotate, Scale, Offset).
  • Construction Tools – Guidelines, tape measure, protractor, dimensions, text labels, setting/resetting axes, and accurate model creation with guides.
  • Advanced Modelling – Sticky geometry, inferencing, groups, components, tags, outliner, materials, textures, Follow Me tool, intersect faces, solid modelling tools, and Solid Inspector plugin.
  • Terrain & Geo Tools – Sandbox tools, adding geo-location, shadow tray, soften edges, solar north plugin, and advanced camera controls.
  • Presentation & Visual Styles – Custom styles, fog, hide/unhide geometry, creating/managing scenes, section planes, animation settings, and exporting animations.
  • Dynamic Components – Defining attributes, controlling movements, on Click animations (doors, drawers), and interactive modelling.
  • 3D Warehouse & Resources – Searching/importing models, live components, AR view, organizing personal collections, and model management.
  • Plugins & Extensions – Essential plugins from Extension Warehouse (BZ Toolbar, Joint Push-Pull, True Bend, Shape Bender, Curviloft, 1001bit tools, and more) for enhanced modelling capabilities.
  • LayOut Integration – Preparing SketchUp models for LayOut, templates, shapes, style settings, dimensions, tables, scaled drawings, pages/layers, scrapbooks, custom templates, and professional presentation/export workflows.
  • Final Project – Complete real-world project (bungalow or high-rise) from planning to creation and presentation using LayOut.
