FramingFramingThe Vectorworks Architect software includes a suite of tools for developing framing plans. There are tools for framing roofs, walls, and floors. Both architects and builders can take advantage of these tools to visualize framing details while still in the design stage of a project, to generate framing detail drawings, and to develop material take-off lists. The Simple Beam Calculator command is also available for analysis of a simply-supported beam with a single load.
A roof face area worksheet can also be added to the drawing from the VA Create Schedule command or the Resource Browser. From the Resource Browser, select Vectorworks Libraries from the Files list, and open the default architectural reports file that is included with the Vectorworks Architect product (see Resource Libraries). Drag the Roof Face Area worksheet to the drawing. The worksheet is populated with information from the objects in the current drawing.
