Unprecedented Speed for better productivity and more fluid design experience.
Multi-core processor support and algorithmic optimizations provide significant improvements for 2D navigation and 3D model generation including sections and shadow casting and an overall better design environment in which to work. Read more...
Innovation in Design technology, unique workflow for design coordination.
With the ArchiCAD "System Technology" based Curtain Wall tool, system and individual parts level creation and editing greatly speeds design. The innovative Systems Technology allows for system oriented building structures to be created in a natural hierarchical process.
Partial Structure Display enables users to work in the rich composite structure environment, while being able to easily coordinate the load-bearing structure with engineers. Read more...
Transforming Documentation for easier and better communication of design.
With the new innovative 3D Document users can use any 3D view of the model as the basis for creating documentation with associative dimensions, annotations and 2D drawing elements. This helps designers more easily communicate their design intent to owners, consultants, contractors and subcontractors revolutionizing conventional drawing methods.
Fill capabilities including translucent solid, image fills, and transparent gradient fills allow architects to remain in the ArchiCAD environment while creating presentation documents that help win more competitions. Read more...
