Google SketchUp

This document outlines an introduction to Google SketchUp software for modeling and simulating buildings. It includes two sessions that will cover basic SketchUp tools and techniques. Session 1 focuses on lines, rectangles, selections and getting started tutorials. Session 2 reviews inferencing, accuracy, copying/arrays, and inference locking, along with an additional getting started video. The goal is for students to learn to identify building components that affect energy use, simulate buildings using Department of Energy software, and analyze options for reducing energy consumption.
