Massing

This is for concept models, basic shapes (which you can fill in later)

• Set up some elevations (floor levels) first
• "In Place Mass"

NB. VV, switch masses visibility  'on' - the default is 'off'
 

1. In Place Mass tool
2. Give the mass a name (eg. Building 1 etc) which will then take you into Sketch mode
3. Create a form eg. solid, then keep modelling then...
4. Creat floors - select the model, the Mass Floors tool will appear on far left, select the floors you want to create (determined by the elevations you previously set up) - this will create the levels.
5. Go back to Massing & Site menu and create the roof, walls, floor etc (ie. this will now create the thickness, solid components)

Once you've added all the walls/roof/floors, you no longer need the mass so you can uncheck this visibility...
