FREE SKETCHUP 3D MODEL available in sketchup 8
Including planimetry in autocad 2d
This 3d model is a basic guide for the students of architecture who need to design a public library
Given the scale of the project of this public library (which includes a basement , a ground floor and a first floor) the 3d model of this project to the public library, complete with all components, plans in autocad and abacus of furniture in excel format,  it will be shared in 3 parts , starting from the ground floor

They documetate all the different areas that you must take into account at the design stage and these areas are numbered in the list, in the following order

The GROUND FLOOR consists of the following key areas :

Near the entrance, you have to allow to the operators to control access to the library,  and to the different levels,  and at the same time.  to be able to control the other areas of the library.
