Renovation

[sabamail65]

hello I have a 1-story building and I want to raise it and add another floor under it. How can I draw the proposed plans without touching the existing plans, such as drawing the levels, etc.

use Phases :

• Existing for all entities that already exist
• New for all you create as new entities

then , use Phase Filters in order to see what you want to show...

• How can I create two existing and proposed phases of a project considering that I am going to create a new floor and that is in the way that the existing floor is going to be pulled up and named as the second floor and a new floor to be created under it as the first floor.like the photo

That is an interesting one for sure. Wanting to have an existing model that is raised up and that it is still existing?

I model renovations mostly probably, I don't think a proposition like that would ever come to fruition here in Finland 😁 (Love to see Australians hauling whole buildings with a truck to some other place and use it. Only timber frames moved here 😁)

But if you insist on it being a existing structure I would either (depending on the actual plan on how to do it):

I would think how the actual process would be done and model in phases accordingly. So if the existing building would be crained to the side, then the new part would be built and then crane it back; then model it like that.

OR model the existing lifted part as a link and work it through there?

Filters most likely will have to be used in views if you want to make it look sharp.
