Re: [TRNSYS-users] Importing a dwg -drawing to SketchUp??



Dear Santeri

Since version 8 free version, importation of dwg plans is not allowed anymore. You have to buy professional one to do that.

Otherwise, you may :
  • download version 7 of google sketchup (Version 7 of Google Sketchup allow you to import dwg files).
  • create a jpg picture from your dwg plans (print screen maybe sufficient) and import that in your sketchup model. Then, adjsut the scale with sketchup tools to obtain correct dimension
Best regards

Dear all,

I have floor plans of a 10 store office building in dwg format. I was wondering if it would be possible to import those plans to googlesketchup so it would be easier to create the zones directly over the floor plans. I selected the import option in the file menu but it seems that the program doesnt support dwg files. The Trnsys 3D tutorial was not very helpful either. I think that creating an accurate model of the building will be extreamly labrious without imported floor plans...

Do you have any experience in importing a dwg drawing into googlesketchup or creating an accurate model of a large building in some other way? Would it be possible to import several pictures in  different heights to model different floors, or is it only possible to import one picture at a time?

All help in this matter will be much appreciated!

Regards. Santeri Siren
