Google Sketchup is free. If you are an builder, design houses, or an architect, there is Sketchup Pro for $495.00. If you are not one of those people, then you have no reason to use pro.

How do you build a wigwam for my project at school with the right materials?
Hi! I'm doing the same project for school: here's how I'm going to do it. First, buy some wires. You can get any kind (gardening, etc.) just make sure that they're strong and easy to bend. Take the wires and crisscross them. Bend to make a dome shape, and then you can glue them or whatever to a piece of cardboard or a styrofoam board. It doesn't matter, just make sure that it'll stay in place. Buy artificial leaves, or you can go to an Asian market. They sell alot of strong, tough, bamboo-like leaves that are perfect for the project. That's what I'm using. You could also use tree bark, but that might be a little harder to collect. Overlap leaves (you should probably know how to do it since you're doing a project on wigwams) on top of your wire dome, and then just glue/tie in place. (USE TACKY GLUE BECAUSE YES, THE LEAVES DO FALL OFF THE WIRES EASILY!!!!!!!) Then take some strong string, or dental floss, and wrap it around your wigwam a few times to hold it in place. You can use some that's the same color as the leaves so it'll be a little less noticeable. Cut out a door, windows, etc. But make sure to let the leaves dry BEFORE you do this, or else your whole wigwam will fall apart. Hope this helps! =] <3 Carolyn
How do you change a person's mind?
==new answer== The universal principle is this- if you want someone else to be something, first be that yourself.
A way to work with this so that you can see how it works is to pick a person you are in daily contact with. Next, make a list of the things about this person that irritate you. Beside this list, choose the direct opposite of this quality and choose one each day to practice in that person's presence, without their knowledge of what you are doing so you can see the results. You will actually be practicing being what you want that person to become. Practice this thoughtfully and faithfully for two weeks and then log the results.

Types of tender and processing tender?
There are three types of tendering methods used in construction industry!
1. Open Tendering
2. Selective Tendering
3. Negotiated Tendering.
Open tender is an arrangement where an advertisement in local newspapers or trade journals invites contractors to apply for tender documents.
A deposit is usually required to ensure that only serious offers are made;
Presumably it is needed to cover the cost of copying the documents. Local authorities have been advised against open tendering because it often leads to excessive tender lists where the cost of abortive tendering is considerable. There are instances of selection criteria being applied after the tender has been submitted, so a bid could be rejected if a contractor does not belong to an approved trade association.
Advantages of Open Tender
The main advantage of such tendering is as follow:
- Give high level of competition and contractors tend to give best prices as compare to other tendering method
- There is no list of restrictive tenderer, which does not allow favoritism
- It is very transparent process which ensures that only the contractor with the best price and meeting all the technical requirements will win the tender.
- This process is usually manage by procurement board where its staff are trained for such exercises and board ensure that all the procedures involved in tender are followed.
Disadvantages of Open Tender
The low price usually detriment of quality and often result in the client obtaining poor quality job and late completion of work.
Given that its open tender and thus there are no restrictions on the number of contractor who can bid and become bulky and lengthy job for tender analyses which often result in delays and high cost.
Selective tender: Selective tendering consists of drawing up a list of chosen firms and asking them to tender. It is by far the most common arrangement because it allows price to be the deciding criterion; all other selection factors will have been dealt with at the pre-qualification stage. There are three ways in which selective tendering lists are drawn up:
- An advertisement may produce several interested contractors and suitable Firms are selected to tender.
- The consultants may contact those they would wish to put on an ad-hoc list.
- Many local authorities and national bodies keep approved lists of contractors in certain categories, such as work type and cost range. Contractors who ask to be included on select lists of tenderer are usually asked to provide information about their financial and technical performance, particularly about the type of work under consideration. The National Joint Consultative Committee for Building (NJCC) has written the 'Standard form of tendering questionnaire - private edition' so contractors can prepare answers to relevant questions in advance. The questions mainly deal with projects carried out during the previous three years. Once the form has been completed, it can be used for specific projects or for those compiling lists of selected contractors.
Ngotiated Tender :under this method normally one contractor is approached and such tender mainly used for specialist work such as lift system or airport project at big level, in such case there are limited number of contractor who do such work in the market .it is based on one-to-one discussion with contractors to negotiated the terms of contract
How do you show a mountain with contour lines?
First of all, you need to make the mountain without the contour lines with the sandbox tools,
Then, move the whole mountain above the ground say, 6". Then, make a huge rectangle quite a bit bigger then your mountain, then make the rectangle a component, copy it up about 1-50' (Making an array) depending on the size of your mountain until you can't see the top of the highest peak, and select the mountain and all of the rect components, and run Intersect With Model. Then, delete the components, and move the mountain, and the newly created contour lines, back to their original spots. Done!
A hand plant is a skateboarding or snowboarding trick where the rider uses one hand to plant on the ground while balancing on the other hand or on their feet, often during a transition or on a ramp. It typically involves lifting the board off the surface while performing a stylish pose or rotation. Hand plants can be executed in various styles, including variations like the "handplant grab," where the rider grabs the board while in the hand plant position. This trick showcases balance, strength, and creativity in freestyle riding.
Would Sketchup tutorials be a good way to learn to use the program?
As an educator, I would tell you that all tutorials help learn a new skill! Video tutorials are especially useful and the Sketchup tutorials are no different. In addition to the video tutorials, they offer models to work with "hands on."
