  Vectorworks Landmark – Creating a Site Model 45 min
- Lecture2.3
  
  Vectorworks Landmark – Creating a Property Line 01 hour
- Lecture2.4
  
  Vectorworks Landmark – Creating Massing Models 01 hour
Module 3 - Creating Buildings 4

You might think that creating buildings is not part of landscaping. There are many times when you need to add building elements to your designs.
- Lecture3.1
  
  Vectorworks Landmark – Creating Walls 01 hour
- Lecture3.2
  
  Vectorworks Landmark – Creating Roofs 45 min
- Lecture3.3
  
  Vectorworks Landmark – Linking The Building To The Site 30 min
- Lecture3.4
  
  Vectorworks Landmark – Site Modifiers 01 hour
Module 4 - Creating a Budget Plan 3

This module shows you how fast and efficient it is to use Vectorworks objects to create your landscape concepts. As we create the concept, Vectorworks will update the cost of the project.
- Lecture4.1
  
  Vectorworks Landmark – Creating Landscape Areas 45 min
- Lecture4.2
  
  Vectorworks Landmark – Creating Hardscape Areas 01 hour
- Lecture4.3
  
  Vectorworks Landmark – Creating Reports 01 hour
Module 5 - Planting 4

In this section, you will learn how to create your own plants, how to control the plant graphics and how to add other things to your designs so that your clients can see your ideas.
- Lecture5.1
  
  Vectorworks Landmark – Creating Plants 45 min
- Lecture5.2
  
  Vectorworks Landmark – Controlling Plant Graphics 45 min
- Lecture5.3
  
  Vectorworks Landmark – Creating A Plant Report (Schedule) 30 min
- Lecture5.4
  
  Vectorworks Landmark – Adding Furniture And Other Objects 45 min
Module 6 - Creating Drawings and Exporting 6

This final section is where we bring everything together to create drawings export our drawings and export our building information models to other people.
- Lecture6.1
  
  Vectorworks Landmark – Creating Plan Drawings 45 min
- Lecture6.2
  
  Vectorworks Landmark – Creating Section and Elevation Drawings 01 hour
- Lecture6.3
  
  Vectorworks Landmark – Creating Detail Drawings 45 min
- Lecture6.4

  Vectorworks Landmark – Exporting IFC Projects 30 min
- Lecture6.6
  
  Vectorworks Landmark – Exporting 3D Projects 01 hour

Building Information Modeling with Vectorworks Landmark

This course has been designed to teach you how to apply Building Information Modelling (BIM) concepts while using Vectorworks Landmark. It is becoming more common to use BIM concepts with landscaping. Vectorworks has several powerful tools that allow you to create more than just objects. For example, instead of just creating an area of paving, we could be creating a hardscape area that has border paving and a main area paving. This hardscape object could also be sloped, it could also modify our site, and you could report the main area of paving as well as the border paving. When you change this hardscape object in the design your report will stay up-to-date.

Learning Outcomes

In this course you will :

Learn how to start a project and set up the file.
Learn how to use the Vectorworks modeling tools for conceptual design.
Learn how to create and control a site model.
Learn how to create a building.
Learn how to use Landscape Areas to create a budget.
Learn how to create plants and control plant graphics.
Learn how to create and link drawings together.
Learn how to create reports and export BIM Information

Before you start this course I expect you to have completed the Vectorworks Foundation course. That course includes all of the basic knowledge that I expect you to know before you start this course.
