Sketchup
Flexible, simple and intuitive modeling software. Designed with all users in mind.
Complete 3D Modeling Software
There’s a reason SketchUp is synonymous with friendly and forgiving 3D modeling software: we don’t sacrifice usability for the sake of functionality.
SketchUp Pro is 3D modeling software that’s easy to learn and to use. Use SketchUp Pro to get owners, inspectors, architects, engineers and subcontractors all headed in the same direction. Start by drawing lines and shapes. Push and pull surfaces to turn them into 3D forms. Stretch, copy, rotate and paint to make anything you like. If you want to be productive within a couple of hours, this is the solution you need.

Key Features
Create 3D Models
Using SketchUp Pro, you can create 3D models, either by starting from scratch or by using existing data. Import drawings, CAD plans, photos, aerial imagery and other information, then use the modeling tools in SketchUp Pro to develop your ideas into 3D.
Add Data to your Model
Within SketchUp Pro, you have the ability to add attributes to your model with Dynamic Components. At any point, create a report summarizing the attribute data in your model.
Import and Export
SketchUp Pro can bring in DXFs and DWGs from any standard CAD package. It can produce images, PDFs, CAD files, and HD animations. You can be sure that SketchUp Pro will plug right into your workflow.
Present and Document
For many of your projects, SketchUp Pro, which includes LayOut, is all you will need. LayOut is the 2D presentation tool to SketchUp Pro for creating deliverables like permit and construction drawings, presentation documents and full-screen digital presentations.
Collaborate
Construction organizations use SketchUp Pro to quickly and effectively communicate 3D information to all project teams, enhancing collaboration and ensuring a shared vision. Using 3D models, one can make more informed decisions, communicate project details, and share ideas with colleagues and customers to reach a common goal.
