My love/hate relationship with SketchUp



Ok so i have attempted to draw this warehouse
beast up on SketchUp... it looks pretty crazy... i have
no idea how the heck im going to do this!

As you can see, both sides have a different
complex curve. They also bulge as they make
their way around the edge. the heights remain
the same but the rest is completely abstract.

I am thinking of having the rafters at 5000mm
centres and the purlins/girts at 1500mm centres.


The girts/purlins are the hardest to do. At the
moment im extruding them along the path around
the edge of the model. This is time consuming
but it must be done so here we go!


THE FUN HAS ONLY JUST BEGUN
