Description : ArchiCad is a professional building information modeling application that meets all the requirements and standards of architectural design, has an intuitive working environment and provides accurate work with information.
Graphisoft has introduced a new version of the well-known BIM design software – Archicad 25 . Improvements have affected both the workflow – the algorithms of work in the program and visualization tools have been updated, and the global infrastructure elements of the entire Graphisoft ecosystem – the integration of BIMx and BIMcloud products has been strengthened, and the updated Forward user support system has been launched.
After analyzing the innovations, we can conclude that Graphisoft intends not only to maintain its position as the market leader in BIM technologies, but also to strengthen the status of Archicad as a multifunctional and universal platform capable of solving any architectural design tasks at all stages of the building life cycle – from the development of an idea to the operation of an object.
Archicad supports over 40 export and import formats, including DWG, PDF and XLS, as well as BIM IFC and BCF formats, which are standards for cross-platform data exchange.
In Archicad 25, the coordination process has been seriously optimized, now the “Anchor Point” is integrated directly into the program interface. The Anchor Point simplifies and makes the process of matching models from different design systems easier for all project teams. The tool works not only with IFC files, but also with traditional formats such as DWG.
Improved integration with Revit: the new Archicad supports RFA and RVT files up to Revit 2021, allows you to transfer the project model from the Archicad environment to Revit as accurately as possible.
The import and export of Rhino version 6 and 7 files has been improved, allowing you to seamlessly use Rhino’s organic shaping tools in your design documentation process.
The process of cooperation with MEP specialists and design engineers has been simplified. Recall that starting from version 24, MEP Modeler is included in the standard distribution of Archicad and does not require a separate installation.
Improved interaction with Solibri, one of the most advanced solutions for analyzing building information models of architectural and engineering projects for errors. Now the elements selected in the Solibri connection are displayed in Archicad with the presentation settings already set.
Special mention should be made of the enhancements to collaboration tools – BIMx and BIMcloud. BIMx is one of the most popular applications for presentation of projects and coordination of all participants in the construction process, which allows even a non-professional to study architectural solutions and evaluate the results of work during a virtual walk through the designed building. BIMcloud is a centralized space for the interaction of all design participants and a repository of BIM files. It allows you to share files, store projects in the cloud, and provides shared access to documentation, regardless of the complexity of the project, geographic location or Internet connection speed.
The new engine for fast real-time 3D BIMx rendering is also available to Android users. In earlier versions of Archicad, it only worked on iOS.
BIMcloud has increased storage space to 100,000 files per account, allowing architects to store more files in one place.
In an upcoming Archicad Update, the BIMx web viewer will be integrated into BIMcloud. Any 2D and 3D files can be opened directly from the BIMcloud application with an installed browser, which improves the possibility of collaboration between specialists.
