Modeling & Coordination

SketchUp + Medeek Modeling Workflow

For residential projects that benefit from a clearer understanding of assemblies and construction logic, Long Beach Designers uses SketchUp-based modeling workflows, including Medeek tools, to study walls, roof framing, floor framing, foundations, and overall building geometry. This helps clients, consultants, and builders better understand how the design is organized before it moves deeper into documentation and coordination.

This workflow is especially useful for remodels, additions, ADUs, custom homes, and projects where visual clarity and constructability matter.

01
Wall & Opening Studies
Model wall layouts, openings, framed assemblies, and design relationships in a clearer 3D environment.
02
Roof & Framing Logic
Study roof forms, rafters, trusses, floor framing, and structural relationships before final coordination.
03
Foundation & Slab Visualization
Develop clearer foundation, footing, slab, and flatwork concepts to support design and coordination.
04
Better Client & Builder Communication
Use 3D views to explain design intent, construction logic, and project organization more clearly.

Software-supported modeling is used as part of the design and coordination process. Final permit documents and engineering requirements vary by project scope and jurisdiction.
