Drawing a Pergola in the Layout Step

With the "beams" and "posts" tools, you can design your own pergolas in Cedreo.


1. Go to the "Layout" step.

2. Select the "beam"  tool and draw the beams that will represent the top of your pergola. 

💡Use the continuous selection to draw multiple beams at once. 

ℹ️ Reduce the default beam thickness for thinner beam bars. 

3. Create a right angle with the beams (or a square if your pergola is not attached to the house)  and add as many beams as desired.

Position the beams for a pergola


4. Select the "post" tool.

5. Position a post at each corner that does not have support on the pergola (if it is not attached to the structure, you'll need 4 posts. If it's attached to the structure, one post may work).

Position the post for a pergola

6. Go to the "material" step. 

7. Select the coating of your choice and apply it to the posts.
