    ARCHICAD 23 delivers an even more responsive BIM performance by increasing the speed of everyday design and editing processes, and ensuring uninterrupted routines for the most frequently used tasks. The brand-new Opening Tool and the advanced Column and Beam tools further increase modeling accuracy, enabling fast editing and streamlined, error- free, interdisciplinary design coordination. The ARCHICAD- Solibri connection provides fast and automated constructability checking. The ARCHICAD-dRofus connection helps to capture and organize client planning requirements, even when designing large and complex projects. COORDINATION VOIDS, NICHES AND RECESSES FOR BOTH ARCHITECTS AND ENGINEERS ARCHICAD 23 introduces a new Opening Tool dedicated to modeling and coordinating project design voids, recesses and niches — as Modeled in ARCHICAD, inspired by: Geisel Library horizontal, vertical or slanted openings across elements, element University of California, San Diego, U.S.A. Architect: William L. Pereira & Associates groups or even across stories. Such openings are important for project coordination as they are equally relevant for architects, engineers and consultants, and must DESIGN be documented by both architects and engineers. Openings can be modeled, scheduled and documented using ACCURATE MODELING, intuitive tools, and shared using IFC. INTUITIVE EDITING, PRECISE DOCUMENTATION ARCHICAD 23 enables architects to model fast and accurate construction details and quantity estimations for reinforced concrete, complex steel, timber, and composite beams. Complex columns and curved, haunched and castellated beams can now be customized to meet graphic and representation standards. Beams and columns can be displayed using various projected and symbolic views and cover fills.

  • WUFI® 2D DXF-Import
    WUFI ® 2D DXF-Import Import a DXF File in WUFI ® 2D Available from WUFI ® 2D 3.4 (May 2014) With the WUFI ® DFX-import, it is possible to use drawings from CAD applications as geometry in WUFI ® 2D. Menu: File -> Import -> DXF File… File: Choose the DXF File here. „Unit“ allows you to set the unit used in the source file (m, cm, mm) „display ENTITY start and unsupportet ENTITIES as comments“ imports not supported elements as uncommented lines. (This may generate many illegible lines in the geometry editor. The interpreted geometry is at the bottom of the list.) After importing the geometry should be checked for correctness. When creating the dxf files some design guidelines must be observed. • The drawings shall be of rectangular, axis-parallel, closed polygons (one closed polygone per element or material), Geometries not fulfilling these conditions will be ignored. Beware that this may happen if your geometry is slightly misaligned to the grid! • Drawings constructed with lines can be overpainted by polygons • Depending on the used application the name of the pattern or layer is used fort he designation in WUFI ® 2D, where it can be changed if wanted. • Geometries are supposed to be drawn in a single horizontal (X-Y) plane. When this condition is not fulfilled, geometries can be ignored, but also wrongly converted. If you export a cut of a 3-dimensional drawing, make sure your software generates a X-Y drawing. • Entities like lines, patterns (if not even-odd), text, dimensions will be ignored , but do no harm. You don't need to delete them from the file.

This Add-In improves the IFC model-based and bi-directional data exchange between GRAPHISOFT® Archicad® and Autodesk® Revit®. The IFC Model Exchange with Archicad Add-In has three functions: • Improved IFC Import imports IFC models to Revit using extra features that improve the interpretation of architectural models; • Link IFC merges IFC models into the current Revit project as a non-editable reference; • Export to Archicad exports Revit model elements in IFC files that are specially enhanced for use in GRAPHISOFT Archicad. Important: Our Add-in is based on the standard Revit API provided by Autodesk. Although we recommend using the latest version of the Add-in, we cannot influence quality or timely fixing of any unresolved issues of Revit code that could have an adverse impact on the Add-in functionality.
