How to create district,base foundation,scarp and balcony?

[Anonymous]

For now i got 4 questions:

1-blue arow is district i must create uneven terrain around the house,road.

2-how to create base foundation for house and how to create next flor(ceiling)

3-how to create balcony.What to do first,make house and floor,than balcony or is balcony connected with the floor(balcony is floor?

4-i need to create scarpe from rock,but scarpe is lower than foundation of the house.
On the picture,red arow is road to house,green is height line of the foundation of the house

1- terrain: mesh
2- foundation/floors: create different storys
3- balcony: either will work
4- scarpe: more mesh

Use the mesh tool to make the terrain. Walls and slabs work well for foundations, footings, etc. You can then make a hole in the mesh where the house is or use SEOs to subtract the foundation elements from the terrain.

1-I need concrete block but i canot find them,i only found a concrete vall or big blocks,i need small blocks.
Allso i need big bricks.
You see it on the picture,1st floor concrete,2nd bricks,problem is becouse wee dont say for block or bricks the same.

2-i cant make the facade,i got the plug in but i dont know how to use it,something about 4 points,and from that,i dont know how to go further,how to select color and stuff.

1: You need block and bricks as… wall materials in a rendering or wall materials in a drawn elevation? Or you want to build a wall from individual blocks and bricks? Or you nee to symbolically represent blocks and bricks in a composite wall assembly?

2: ArchiFacade? If so, the plug-in stretches a photograph to be orthographic. You only use this in a rendering.

Maybe i complicate too much.
I want to draw this house from 1st step to 100.Maybe this even is not posible.To see what kind of material was in use.
I want to make house from plane materials such as concrete block in 1st floor and then others floors from "bricks",then facade and so on.
Probably you cannot do this in my way.Maybe you just make wals and then paint it in white and have this white color as facade.

But i was thinking that you can go step by step and when you finish you have more options to present your house from one file,show your house plain,and than with facade and furniture and flowers around the house and so on.A hope that you understain what i mean,i just dont know if this is posible.
Like a balcony before the house is finished you have a bolcony and you can showe it,but then you want to showe finish phase and than the balcony has a fence and so on.

Or you must have for this what i want,more files(1 file is plain house,2nd file is finished house and so on)?

So thats why i seek for original elements for my house(concrete block and briscks block)

Like the stairs,i have it in plain phase,from concrete,but in finish mode this stairs will be charged with wood.
Probably this is not posible and i must choose in start when i make stairs,what kind of stairs i want and form what material.

You have made a complicated project for yourself. I understand that you want to show the sequence of assembling your project as individual building elements. This is more of a meticulous media management challenge than an ArchiCAD challenge. (And an ArchiCAD alliteration challenge, too!)

ArchiCAD is not designed to do directly this, because it substitutes many symbolic abstractions with no 3D presence for elements - like wall finishes....

You CAN model every element in the building. If a particular brick doesn't exist as a detailed element, you CAN create it as a Library object, complete with mortar gap and curing holes, say, from a slab. The book "Object Making" can help you. Does it come with ArchiCAD where you live? Then you stack the bricks.....

Each step of the building process can be shown, either as a construction simulation (never used it myself) or as a series of quickviews where layers gradually turn on to add more and more of the building into the view.

To make a simple element like a stair turn from concrete to having a wood finish, for example, you could make the stair twice on separate layers, one version would be concrete, and the other finished in wood. You would substitute the wooden one for the concrete one at the appropriate moment. Otherwise, for a stair, you'd simply model the wood finish as boards or whatever and turn that layer on when needed.

Ok i see that this is not possible.
You sad that i can make my own library for missing elements,but in my case if i cant do what i say before,than its no use to make my own galery,then i just need to make walls from any material becouse in finish mode this walls will be white,so its waste of time to bother with bricks and similar stuff?Im i wright?
But in official site i saw houses with facades and details,i was hoppeing to do this of my own.

I think that you are in need of some sort of basic training. I suggest, you search the Slovenia distributor web page (www.pilon-lr.si) for tutorials or just send them e-mail and join one of their seminar.
