FreeCAD Daily #7: Using Assembly Workbench for Architectural BIM

[@EklavyaSelfLearningTutorials]

Guys, you can watch 2nd part of this video which I've made using FreeCAD 1.1.0. The new version has the ability to make joints using vertices. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qHq8fGdjeJuXfKs

Great video as always! Can you do a video on creating a window with movable shutters using assembly? Can such an assembled window be used multiple times? If we do that, will each instance be considered as a separate window?

When we insert a window, it basically makes cut in the wall. In assembly workbench, we use the finalised parts or finalised BIM objects. You can insert a window as a part in the assembly multiple times, but don't expect it to make cuts in the hosts. Better option is to create typical wall panels with windows and then use these wall panels as parts to be inserted in the assembly.
