Some simplifications of the geometry are allowed. In the following parts of the course some schemes describe the dimensions of the simplified shape of the model. 
We want to create a volume of a portion of the air around a control volume. We use a 300x200x100 m box so that the faces of the box are relatively distant from the temple (the creation of this model is suposed supposed to be used for a CFD simulation analysis of the airflow around the building).

Calculator window after select two diagonal corners.

Select the More...->Get point and click a corner of a diagonal (top left) 
their coordinates will appear in the calculator
8.0,98.0,0.0
Repeat it and now get the opposite diagonal corner.
47.0,59.0,0.0
now to calculate the sum pressing button +
now to divide by 2 enter this number pressing the buttons

  • Select Geometry->Create->Point and modify in the command line the coordinates changing z=0 to z=30, to obtain: 27.5,78.5,30.0 and press enter to create the point with this coordinates 

...

  • Repeat the creation of the volume, but now seelction selecting all surfaces, then press ESC, and the volume should be created. Note that the volume (using GiD Normal render mode) is represented by a light blue line following the contour lines.
