Home Construction Project (Solidworks 2015)

grabcad

For the DIY virtual home builder this might be a fun tool. Models are full of equations and even include wood profiles of 2x4’s and more (added to SW weldment profiles). Models were done with parametric adjustments in mind. Usage or comments if I added some are in the model summaries tab. Full Solidworks model in SW Folder, Wooden profiles in Weldment profile folder (zip file). What the model includes: Fink roof truss and gable end, a couple of OSB paneled walls + other wall configurations, Versa-Lam with size configuration, 2x’s + other std lumber sizes, OSB Board, floor truss (equation/function driven), Concrete block (configurable ends) + 1 construction sign.What it don’t include: California corners, truss plates, hangers, fire blocks, purlins, nails, I know I’m missing something else.There may be some inaccurate things here or there... but it’s a start. Hope you like it.
