- In today's Skill Builder we look at using SketchUp to do math. Before you run away screaming and crying... this video isn't only for self proclaimed math experts!

This is how 3D is actually at least 500 years old. Having been trained at traditionnal carpentry geometry work (trait de charpente), its exactly the way I use Sketchup. In fact i'm setting up a course for professional CAD for woodhouse building.
Thank you Aaron - Brilliant tutorials. Just discovered Sketchup and am so impressed with your Square One / Skill Builder vids.
As a 2D to 3D Newbie, this will take some familiarisation, and your support is invaluable. Fantastic to see your example workflows. Please keep them coming
This kind of dimensioning is the easiest way to figure out stair treads and risers. The stringers can be notched from the calculations, and details like tread nosing and handrail attachment can be adjusted to whatever you like. If you find that there is not enough run for a safe tread width or code worthy riser you can easily experiment with landings either at the top or mid-point.
Simply use the divide command on a vertical line to see how the rise changes with the number of steps, and if that number of steps will fit in a confined space. I've built several deck stairs using Sketchup, all on uneven ground, and I don't know how I could have figured any of them out using any other method. Check code requirements first. The rules can change from country to country.
Very intuitive - your thought process was very apparent and has made me start to think about similar issues in a different light. Thank you.
Sketchup is also great for solving or checking your work in certain types of math problems (especially in geometry and trigonometry) even when you're not modeling anything. I've done this a lot.
I've always wanted to see a math video from you, there it is!
I always use this method with my drawings it's the same thing doing with math but withing drawing/ modeling software you do it once.
I did not know you could use a colon : for the roof slope vs looking up the angle that corresponds to the slope on a roofing table. Nice trick!
Yes! That is a cool feature.
you do those thing so easily... great job
It's nice video , its simplest math language and return it to the reality life with the workers tools.
Thank you for this video
Aaron, can you make a video on how to make a Hip/Val rafter alone with rafter. Thank you
Thank you for your video
Sketch up has come a long way!
Again another great video 🙂
Спасибо!
love the "TW - imperial units"
Very nice brother. And, with all the roof/truss work I've done in SU, I still found some golden nuggets in this video. (Pssst, you know what's really fun? Modeling in SU, then correlating the results on a Jobber 6)
Sounds like a great time… though I have always been a Construction Master guy, myself!
I have both😎
Thanks Aaron, always best when we can avoid math.
Cool shirt aside, the guy really knows what he is talking about
Arrays in sketch up also eliminate a lot of tedious math.
Interesting. I expected this to be about What one can put into the field on the bottom right corner. Instead, it was about NOT Math in SketchUp :)
Wouldn't it be easier to use solids?
Hi God idea sketch up vide
Trigger warning about metric 🤔. Sounds like a Donuts, Design, And Debate podcast topic! Does designing in metric Create good designs. 😂
Why doesn't Sketchup just use degrees to get your angles instead of doing all this math. I'm coming from 34 years of Autocad sinse 1989, and I am now dealing with this different way of thinking. I'm deciding at the moment whether I should go the Revit route or Sketchup route, Sketchup seems easier but Revit is more professional and more powerful, where you don't need all the add on's. My clients are asking for 3D, but I'm battling to change, I guess old dogs battle to learn new tricks.
SketchUp DOES use angles. In fact, that is the default behavior. This video shows how Aaron uses SketchUp to match roof slope callouts without translating into degrees.
