Alex here and a question I've been asked is once I create a site and once I create my

building plot how can I create separations in it and how can I create a site offset and you

can do all that using Skema's Street tool so just by selecting the street icon what I can

do is draw a path of my street splitting through my site in any location you want hitting enter and

now I have a street with two separated building plots and I can edit the street as well I can

edit the width of it so let's just make it 12ft and I can change the location line and that's

just where the street falls on the drawn path and then going into it further I can create a

site offset using the street tool so here's a little Pro tip what I can do is draw a street

around the perimeter of the site where I want an offset to be and just draw it along the path

where you want the offset to be now what I can do is Select my street change the location line

to go all the way into the site and change my width to whatever I want it to be so now I have

a split site with an offset on it and I have these control points so whenever I want to go

in and start massing I can align them to these controlled Corners here and my offset is set.
