AppliCad Roof Wizard allows you to model roof and walls together, or just walls by themselves. Once your model is complete, you can check its accuracy and extract detailed quotations for roof cladding and/or wall cladding, trim, labour, and materials.
🧾 Wall Modeling Approaches
You have several options for creating wall models:
Method | Description |
Plan View Tracking | Trace wall perimeters from architectural floor plans |
Plan View Drawing | Draw walls directly in plan view without reference drawings |
Elevation Tracking | Trace walls from elevation drawings or photos |
Elevation Drawing | Draw walls directly in elevation view |
🔧 Choosing the Right Approach
The best modeling method depends on the information and drawings available for your project:
Plan view methods work best when you have clear floor plans showing wall layouts
Elevation methods are ideal when you have elevation drawings or need to model complex wall profiles
Quality and detail level of available drawings will influence which approach gives the most accurate results
🛠 Model Integration
Wall models can be created independently or integrated with roof models, giving you flexibility to:
Model complete building envelopes for comprehensive quotations
Focus on wall-only projects for cladding and trim estimates
Verify model accuracy before generating material lists and labour calculations
