Expert 1-on-1 SketchUp tutoring and freelance services for construction modeling, architectural modeling, and rendering. Get tailored solutions today.
Tutoring & Services for:
SketchUp, Construction Modeling, Architectural Modeling, Architectural Rendering
About Me:

Vladimir Simonovski is a structural engineer and co-founder of a structural consulting company comprised of highly skilled engineers, designers, and forward-thinkers. Prior to co-starting his own company, Vladimir gathered extensive design and construction knowledge and experience by working on high-profile infrastructure projects around the U.S. On some projects, his experience was gathered by being a part of the design team, and on other projects Vladimir made his presence known in the field by directly getting involved in construction as part of the construction team. This balanced mix of experience, coupled with a strong work ethic, gave Vladimir the outlet for his interest in reinventing how problems are viewed and finding solutions by utilizing technologies such as 3D modeling, virtual reality, 3D printing, scanning, implementation of new materials, and more.

His enthusiasm can be seen from the numerous three-dimensional modeling manuals that he has prepared over the years. Vladimir has conducted training for construction companies on the effective use of the SketchUp application and how it can fill the effectiveness gap where other CAD applications cannot. During these training sessions, a special emphasis is given to the idea of Information Modeling and proper organization in the heavy civil industry. Additionally, his 3D modeling work was published by the American Society of Civil Engineers – ASCE, under the practice periodicals on structural design and construction. The paper was written based on a real-life beam erection scenario in which Vladimir was heavily involved and where 3D modeling was used extensively to plan and test multiple critical girder picks. Additionally, Vladimir also published a book titled SketchUp for Civil Engineering and the Heavy Construction Industry: Modeling Workflow and Problem Solving for Design and Construction, where a large number of everyday uses for SketchUp in the construction industry were compiled in an easy-to-use manual.

About Me:

Hi, my name is Geoff. I have been a professional designer since 1999, and a 3D modeling teacher since 2005. I’ve taught Sketchup at Front Range Community College, the University of Colorado and have taught hundreds of students online. My interest in SketchUp started with my love for snowboarding. I started designing and building snowboard parks when I was 18. SketchUp was the perfect tool for the job. It allowed me to quickly draw the 3D ideas I had in my head. In the summers, I started teaching architects how to use the program. Compared to the complex curves of terrain parks, the straight lines in architecture were easy. Over the years I made thousands of models and have expanded my skills to include product design, 3D print modeling, construction documents, Layout, piping models, topographic models, and various other projects. SketchUp has helped me realize my love for design, modeling, and teaching. I’d like share my love for the program with you, complete your drawings, and help you meet your deadlines. No matter where you live, what age, or what ability level, I can help you realize your dreams in 3D!

However, it has limitations, such as no access to extensions, limited import/export options, and no offline functionality. For more advanced features, SketchUp offers paid versions like SketchUp Pro (desktop version with full tools and extensions), SketchUp Go (for web and iPad), and SketchUp Studio (which includes professional tools like V-Ray rendering).

How can I import and export different file formats in SketchUp?

To import different file formats in SketchUp, go to File > Import, and choose your desired file format from the dropdown menu. Supported formats include 3DS, DWG, DXF, IFC, KMZ, and several image types. To export, go to File > Export, and select '3D Model' or '2D Graphic' depending on your needs, then choose the appropriate file format such as STL, KMZ, DWG, DXF, or various image formats.

How do I create a 3D model in SketchUp?

To create a 3D model in SketchUp, start by selecting the "Rectangle" tool to draw a base shape on the ground plane. Use the "Push/Pull" tool to extrude this shape into a 3D form. Utilize other tools like the "Line," "Arc," and "Circle" to refine your model, and use the "Move," "Rotate," and "Scale" tools for positioning and adjusting proportions. You can also import components and materials from the 3D warehouse.

How do I add extensions to SketchUp?

To add extensions to SketchUp, go to the Extension Warehouse from within SketchUp, log in with your Trimble ID, search for the desired extension, and click "Install." Alternatively, you can manually install an extension by downloading the .rbz file and using the "Install Extension" option in the Extension Manager.

How can I improve the performance of SketchUp on my computer?

To improve the performance of SketchUp on your computer, update your graphics card drivers, close unnecessary background applications, reduce the number of edges and faces in your model, use component instances instead of groups where possible, simplify textures, and adjust the OpenGL settings to use hardware acceleration. Additionally, consider upgrading your hardware, such as increasing RAM or switching to a Solid State Drive (SSD).

How do I use layers and tags in SketchUp?

Layers and tags in SketchUp help organize and control the visibility of different aspects of your model. To use them, first assign specific components or groups to layers/tags. Then manage visibility through the "Tags" panel, turning these layers/tags on or off as needed. This helps streamline your workflow by allowing you to focus only on certain parts of your model without the distraction of others.

How do I troubleshoot common issues with SketchUp crashing or freezing?

To troubleshoot common issues with SketchUp crashing or freezing, try the following: 1. Ensure your graphics card driver is up to date. 2. Disable hardware acceleration in SketchUp settings. 3. Check for SketchUp software updates and install them. 4. Close other resource-heavy programs running in the background. 5. Increase your system's virtual memory. 6. Check for plugins or extensions causing conflicts and disable them. 7. Ensure your model is not overly complex by reducing the number of edges and faces

Advantages of Online Tutors & Services

Recordable


No need to take notes! We record your lessons so you can replay them at your own pace later. Keep these recordings for future reference and reinforce your learning whenever needed.

Tutors & Services Philosophy

Don't Learn Alone

Professionals these days are sitting alone and staring at their computers. They spend years searching online for tools that will increase their workplace efficiency—digging through forums and watching lengthy videos for the right CAD or visualization tip.

Sometimes they just have one small question that would take a person two minutes to answer, but customer support lines are a thing of the past. Big companies will direct you to an FAQ that will hardly begin to answer your question.

Bring Back the Human Connection

We strive to bring human connection back to the work environment. Our tutors work directly with you to solve your problems, similar to the way an apprentice works hand-in-hand with a skilled professional.

Screen-share technologies like Zoom have allowed us to work together in real time. We can see each others' screens and cursors, switch presenters to share information easily, and even turn on webcams for a more human interaction. Learn efficiently across workflows like architectural rendering, interiors, mechanical modeling, and construction documentation.

Tutors, Services, or Both

Sometimes our clients want to learn a program from beginning to end; sometimes they completely hand over the services to us; and other times, they want something in between.

Some clients want to be able to use the program on a basic level and let us do the hard stuff. Others want to co-work with us, supervising our work to ensure their artistic vision is realized. Along the way, they learn the tools—whether that’s SketchUp, Blender, Fusion 360, Revit, or AutoCAD.

By the end of the process, some clients are able to wean themselves completely off of our services and are empowered to do the work themselves. If they get stuck or behind on a deadline, they use us as a lifeline. They can call anytime—even if it’s just a 10-minute question—we are here to help.

The best designers are those who are also makers! Great to have someone in the states, with real production experience. Mark has a strong fabrication background and at least a decade on Fusion 360. Running Fusion 360 can be a challenge, this session gave me a better understanding of the methodologies involved and what I should expect from the software.
