Learning Objectives Understand the concept of floor. Create floors using the Floor tool. Create roofs using the Roof tool. Use the shape editing tools for floor, roof, and slabs. Create ceilings using the Ceiling tool. Create openings in the floor, roof, and ceiling. Create rooms using the Room tool. Join walls with the other walls and roofs.
