Sketchup - Creating a basic architectural model broken by categories

In this video we'll learn how to create a basic architectural "shell" composed of floor, exterior walls, columns, and ceiling, using an Autocad 2D reference as base. We'll discuss an optimal workflow and best practices, such as "grouping" to ensure the stability of our geometry.
The plan used in this video was created using a Revit house found on the link below:

So nice to hear how to use this tool by someone that actually does it for a living. I know how though it is to be a small channel and it can feel like no one is watching. But I learned a lot today! Keep at it!
