Description

The basic design of this office space was adjusted slightly for simplicity in construction from the architectural model created in module 6. Structural walls were used around the central logistics centers on each wing around the elevator shaft and stairways. Aside from that, columns were able to be spaced between 25 and 35 feet apart, using concrete for the columns and beams, as it is already used for the floors. The twisted entertainment wings attached to the welcome wing remained in tact from module 6, with slanted columns utilized to accommodate those spaces. Finally, structural floors were used as well, with the column line being 5 feet away from the edge of the building space.

Using ACC Model Coordination

  1. Upload your architectural and structural models to your folder on ACC Documents, then copy them into the subfolder named Coordination Space.

  4. Create a new View that merges a 3D view from both your architectural and structural models.
  5. Open the new view, and use the ACC Model Coordination environment to navigate to an interesting camera viewpoint. Then, create an Issue to share this viewpoint.
    1. Click the Issues button in the left navigation bar to display the saved issues.
    2. Click the Create Issue button to create a new one.
    3. Click a location in the model viewer to place a push pin.
    4. Enter info for this issue:
      • Change the Type to Design
      • Enter a Title
      • Assign the issue to our CA
    5. Click the Create button to save your issue and send it to the assignee.
  6. Repeat these steps to create three issues sharing interesting viewpoints within your merged models.
