Using TRIM and EXTEND
- [Instructor] We're staying in our oh two underscore elevations two D house drawing, and what I've done is I've left the drawing in the state it was in the previous video, where what we'd done is we'd used the construction lines to develop our elevation on the right of the wall and the slab. And basically they're all just still sitting there, extending off into infinity. And we've also put them on the appropriate layers. The red and gray layers, the red being the wall, the gray being the slab. So what we can do now, is use some of the modified tools in AutoCAD to tidy up our elevation. Now bear in mind, this elevation right now is on it's end. It will need to be rotated round through 90 degrees, so that the slab is actually horizontal on the ground, so to speak. So, we're gonna use the trim and extend commands. So we can see our floor plan here. Our ground floor plan is there. We're gonna zoom in on this area here, where all the construction lines intersect. So if I zoom in, you can…
