I have draw on autocad 3d my 3d building and i want to do the rolling sphere method to see Which place on my building is protecting.I dont know what steps to follow on autocad to create the protective zone .
Create a 3D model of your construction in AutoCAD.
Determine the highest point of the structure where lightning rods will be installed.
Calculate the radius of the rolling sphere based on guidelines or standards.
Place the lightning rods at the highest point of the structure.
Create a 3D solid object representing the rolling sphere with the calculated radius.
Position the rolling sphere above the structure, centered on the lightning rods.
Ensure the rolling sphere fully encompasses the structure.
Review and adjust the placement of the rolling sphere and lightning rods as needed.
Apply appropriate visual properties to differentiate the rolling sphere and the structure.
Save the 3D model and use it for analysis or documentation purposes.
