Hi, I’d be happy to help you build the established rooflines and ceiling details for your 4,500 SF residential project in Chief Architect. I have experience working with architectural DWG files and converting the architect’s plans into a properly structured Chief Architect model, including roof planes, roof intersections, ceiling heights, vaulted/coffered ceiling details, and other related architectural elements. I can carefully review the DWG plans and establish the roof structure based on the architect’s design intent while keeping the model clean, accurate, and easy to revise. I can also coordinate the rooflines with the exterior walls, floor plans, and ceiling conditions to ensure everything works correctly in 3D. You can share the DWG files and any available architectural notes/elevations, and I can review them before starting. I’m ready to get started and can provide screenshots/progress updates during the process. Anil C. DM Engineering Solutions choyal.anil1990@gmail.com

Hi, I’d be happy to help with this project. I work directly in Chief Architect X17 and have 10+ years of experience in architectural drafting, 3D modeling, and residential design. I can build a complete, accurate, editable Chief Architect .plan file from your DWG/DXF files, including both floors and the exterior—walls, doors, windows, stairs, roof, ceiling heights, interior details, and cabinetry as required. I understand that the model needs to be clean, accurate, and true-to-scale so you can continue making design changes and later export it to Twinmotion. I can start right away. Once I review the CAD files and reference materials, I can provide a clear turnaround time and cost estimate. I’d be happy to share samples of my previous Chief Architect projects as well. Best regards, Dm Engineering Solutions choyal.anil1990@gmail.com
