SolidWorks for Carpenters

Hi All,

Lets say I want to create an assembly manual for a single cargarage. I want to use SW to model all the concrete, framing, andfinishing of the garage. I want to use the model to createillustrations for the manual, bills of material for a shopping listand bills of material/cut list for construction labor efficiency.For the sake of this exercise I want to favor model accuracy overmodel creation time.

Using SolidWorks Office Premium, how would you organize and executethe creation of this model?

I ask because I bought SW to do just this sort of work on a largerscale to design dairy cow milking and housing facilities and theequipment inside them. In the last year I have made great stridesmodeling the equipment that goes in the facility but I am not happywith the any of my attempts at modeling the site and buildings. Theequipment that goes into such a facility places a huge number ofunique demands on the site and buildings thus the requirement theexample above to favor model accuracy over creation time. If thecomplexity of the model requires a more robust computer workstationthen so be it.

Thanks,
