The Parts of a Wall
![Page 3: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Everyone at a laptop follow along…
Designing a Wall
![Page 4: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
110mm

3mm thick
![Page 5: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
110mm
3mm
Draw a rectangle that is 3mm thick x 110mm long.
PULL your rectangle up 10mm.
Make a “2x4” piece of lumber.
![Page 6: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Double check the measurements with dimension lines but then delete them. You’ll see why in a minute...
![Page 7: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
To make sure every piece of this shape stays together, draw a box around it or choose “Edit -> “Select All”, then“Edit -> “Make Group”.
![Page 8: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
You could copy and paste the first 2”x4”until you had enough for a wall, BUT, it takes a lot of time to get them all an equal distance apart. There has got to be a better way!
![Page 9: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
1. With the MOVE tool selected, hold the CTRL key down.2. Click on the first 2”x4”.3. Move your mouse to the right and you will see a copy of the first 2”x4”. (Make sure the copy is on the RED AXIS like the first one.)4. Before you click to place it, type 203mm.
![Page 10: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
You now have two 2”x4”s 203mm (8 inches apart).
203mm
![Page 11: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
With the second 2”x4” still highlighted, type /12.
![Page 12: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The /12 copies the first object makes 12 more and places them and equal distance apart!
Pretty sweet, right?
![Page 13: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Draw a flat rectangle on the bottom of all the 2”x4”s.
![Page 14: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Use the PUSH-PULL tool to pull the bottom rectangle out 3mm.
![Page 15: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
ROTATE around to the other side and add another 2”x4” to the top of the wall.SAVE this file as “back wall your name”
![Page 16: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Highlight everything (or select all) and go “Edit -> Make Group”.This locks it all together into one piece so it cannot be ruined!
![Page 17: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Choose the “Rotate” tool and click on one end of the wall. Make sure the horizontal bar inside the Rotate tool is parallel with the 2”x4”.
![Page 18: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Rotate the Rotate tool until the wide bar is now perpendicular to the 2”x4” (vertical).
![Page 19: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The wall is now vertical!
However, it is below the RED axis.
![Page 20: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
To align the wall back to the ORIGIN, select the MOVE tool and drag the bottom left corner to the ORIGIN.
![Page 21: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Show Mr. Johns your vertical wall.
![Page 22: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Because we are drawing blueprints, they don’t
need to be 3D.
![Page 23: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
GOOD NEWS!No reason to design a new wall, just use the PUSH-PULL tool and lower the wall to about .25mm.
(Zero (0) mm would be nothing)
![Page 24: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

![Page 30: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Want to see how to use the BACK wall to make an easy SIDE wall?
![Page 31: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
1. Open your BACK WALL again.2. Re-save this file (SAVE AS!) “Sidewall yourname”.
Notice the measurement at the bottom, where I’ve measuredover to the end of the 8th stud. 121mm.
![Page 32: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
In order to cut part of the wall off, you need to draw a line all the way around the end of the 8th stud.
![Page 33: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Rotate (ORBIT) your wall so you can draw a line on the bottom too.
![Page 34: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Now that there is a clear line drawn all the way around the 8th stud,simply start DELETING all the studs to the right...
![Page 35: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
The easiest way to delete part of the wall is to remove the top and bottomsection just to the right of the 8th stud then SELECT the last four (4) studsand press DELETE.
![Page 36: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
![Page 37: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Here’s a SIDE WALL! SAVE the file again.Print one. Build two!
![Page 38: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)

Delete the three MIDDLE walls.
![Page 40: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Delete the SOLE PLATE where the
door will be.
![Page 41: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Create a HEADER that is 70mm above the ground and 6mm tall.
![Page 42: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Design a TRIMMER STUD inside the door next to the KING STUD and beneath the HEADER.
Copy and pastea second TRIMMER STUDon the other side.
![Page 43: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Design CRIPPLE STUDS above the door HEADER too - and then space the remaining CRIPPLE STUDS as evenly
as possible.
![Page 44: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
To create a window HEADER, draw a rectangle thatis even with the door HEADER.
![Page 45: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Delete all the little lines on the studs to make the HEADERstand out as one separate piece.
Can you see where I missed drawing a line?
![Page 46: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Create a window SILL 25mm below the window HEADER.
![Page 47: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Clean up the window by deleting the unnecessary linesand the filled in spaces.
![Page 48: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Finish the left window by inserting CRIPPLE STUDS and STUDS above and below the window.
![Page 49: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
It is faster to copy and paste the entire window structure and paste another one over on the right side of the door.
![Page 50: Sketchup Tutorial, Part 4](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061520/568131bb550346895d9822ff/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)

You should now have:• One back wall• One side wall• One front wall
(with door and 2 windows)
