Chapter 14

Floors, Ceilings, and Roofs

Floors, ceilings, and roofs, which may seem simple or common building components, can sometimes prove to be difficult to model and detail in your project designs. In previous chapters, you read about using conceptual design tools to create masses that help drive building elements. In this chapter, we expand on the development of these sketch-based objects.

In this chapter, you'll learn to:

• Understand floor modeling methods
• Model various floor finishes
• Create ceilings
• Understand roof modeling methods
• Work with advanced shape editing for floors and roofs
