On a TechDraw page, create a TechDraw view from that group or Building part. Put everything related to one view (Shape 2D views, annotations.) into one same group or Building part. Annotate these views with texts, dimensions, symbols, hatches. That way, you can give a different aspect to viewed and cut geometrty Create other Shape 2D views for views that cut through your model, and set them in Cut Faces mode. Create Shape 2D views from your Building parts and section planes. Place Section planes where you want sections and elevations (and plans if you didn't use Building parts). Use Building parts for your levels (not mandatory, but they carry an automatic, built-in section plane). Model your building using BIM or any other FreeCAD tools. If you change the information or model of the window 3D object, the label in the 2D projection will update automatically. New version of a FreeCAD file with a window object 2D projection, linked to a Draft label. See below a description of this workflow.įreeCAD file with a window object 2D projection, linked to a Draft label. You can turn on/off the 3D model and keep visible the 2D projection in the tridimensional space or in the TechDraw page. In the future, FreeCAD developers will improve and optimize these workflows in new FreeCAD versions.įreeCAD file with a 3D model of bathroom and 3 possible layouts made with TechDraw WBįile:FreeCAD House RenovationBlueprints.fcstdįreeCAD file with layouts of a house renovation made with TechDraw WBįreeCAD file with a 3D object (furniture) linked to a 2D projection. This is the reason why it is necessary to document workflows that allow to elaborate drawings for a more complex technical documentation, commonly used in areas of AEC industry. There are some features for Architecture, but TechDraw has little control on them. TechDraw WB is a module of FreeCAD originally for mechanical design drawings. You can download these files for studying to replicate or to develop your own workflow. This is a list with examples of FreeCAD files that includes Page Layouts made with TechDraw Workbench for Architecture projects.
