Vectorworks BIM Tutorials- A Large Residential Extension

[@LandsDesignLLC]

Great video! I learn so much through your tutorials and, like some others, I've been using VW since Minicad but am now re-learning the proper workflows and efficiencies. It's invigorating to increase productivity. You’ve mentioned you are happy to share your file -- I’d love that! Thank you

[@jonathanreevescad]

Glad to help! Please let me know if you want any Training?

[@oultondevine2895]

Fantastic tips! I've been going through your tutorials and learning so much - thank you! I'm basically relearning how to use the Vectorworks workflow properly. I've worked mainly in 3d for over 20 years but have been extremely late to join the BIM party. I used to import my Vectorworks files into a rendering program called Strata but so much more can be done directly in Vectorworks now with very good texturing and lighting and Twinmotion adds a whole other level of presentation options - another recent discovery that I've learned through your website and tutorials.

Thanks for the nice feedback. This really helps motivate me. Check out my online training and new Library packs at: vectorworksbim.co.uk

Great video Jonathan. You’ve mentioned you are happy to share your file. I’d love that, to see you set ups! Thank you

[@jonathanreevescad]

Will do!

[@juanontivero]

That was incredible. I use VW for theater and you went trough a lot of info that will help me a lot. thanks

[@jonathanreevescad]

Glad you enjoyed it!

Wow...some really great tips. Love the Heliodon trick for your renderings.

[@jonathanreevescad]

Thanks Rory.

Hi Jonathan .can I Hav ur advice on which bim software wud be ideal for learning,vectorworks or auto desk revit.I also want to know how cud I join ur course

[@jonathanreevescad]

Vectorworks for sure

Hi Jonathan, I’m wondering if you could do a daylight sunlight analysis using Vector works?

[@jonathanreevescad]

Yes, You can do sunlight shadow path studies using the Hellion tool and then creating solar animation on any day from discuss till dawn at any location in the world. I will try and add that to a video soon!

Fantastic Demonstration ... and Design what I wonder are you drawing all drawings from Scratch in Vectorworks or there are imported cad files IF you import in which phases of design are you importing Cad files ?

[@jonathanreevescad]

Thanks, It's all from scratch in Vectorworks.

[@huuss]

​@@jonathanreevescad Thank you for answer Sir very educational and inspiring channel

[@TheP4U111]

Hi Jonathan, is there a tutorial om how you made the 3D model? How long did it take you?

[@jonathanreevescad]

3-4 days

[@abnerk3201]

Really appreciate the video, very helpful indeed

[@jonathanreevescad]

My pleasure, I am planning a new series of 10 projects like this so watch this space and please share my channel with others who might be interested as this motivates me to make the videos!

[@Tangably]

Nice work!

[@nickname1812]

Brilliant but all credit to your clients for agreeing to fees to allow a thorough building survey, analysis and design. Just look into the planning system to see how many hack draftsmen are knocking out basic 2D CAD solutions often I'm sure, appointed on price.

[@jonathanreevescad]

Actually we did the measured survey and create the existing 3D models in Vectorworks

[@kefumna]

Thank you , really helpful.

Thank.Bro

[@jonathanreevescad]

No problem

[@FinoMarg]

theres no match to vectorworks in documentation

[@bimspecialist1800]

Rajul Gohil revit maybe

[@jonathanreevescad]

Thanks for watching

[@jonathanreevescad]

Thanks for watching

[@Tangably]

That exploded axon is so sexy!

[@jonathanreevescad]

Thanks. Vectorworks makes these so easy!
