The Joint Push Pull (JPP) extension for SketchUp 2021 represents a significant advancement in non-planar surface extrusion. Unlike SketchUp’s native Push/Pull tool—which operates only on flat faces—JPP allows users to extrude curved, faceted, and multiple contiguous faces simultaneously. This paper examines the mathematical underpinnings, workflow integration, and practical applications of JPP within SketchUp 2021’s API environment. Case studies in architectural detailing, terrain modeling, and organic form generation illustrate its utility. Limitations regarding mesh topology and extension conflicts are also discussed.
