Although the ttf ‘Flux Architect’ works in v2017 SketchUp it fails in Layout.  
But there are several similar fonts, like ‘Architect’ and ‘Architects Daughter’…

If you want an architectural font that’s all caps [even for lowercase characters] then I don’t know of any free ones which I consider to look acceptable; and there are only a few low cost paid possibilities ?

Free [can’t guarantee these all work as ttf in Layout !] :-

But writing everything in caps looks very ‘SHOUTY’ anyway !  
Also using a hand-font can look naff if it is not one of the better ones…

You need to do some of your own searching…  
There are zillions of possible substitute fonts - depending on what you want/need…
