Sketchup Layout Work Flow

Using Sketchup and Layout to developed 3d images and 2d views for a client that needed presentation images for a meeting. Task was very simple with Sketchup and Layout, the first step was to convert a roof plan from pdf to cad and then I inserted this cad drawing to my Sketchup model. All dimensions and text were done in Sketchup Layout. The scope is to replace existing roof top units like the one that is shown in the first image below with new one's. Two alternatives were draft one with a roof curb and one with a steel base.
