Course Overview

ARCHICAD® is a Building Information Modelling software developed by Graphisoft. It allows you to develop a virtual building model, that has intelligent construction information linked to it. With different model views, you automatically generate 2D floor plans, elevations, sections, 3D floor plan documents and interactive schedules for quantity take-off and reporting.

The course is divided into seven unique sections. A residential house project is used to explain the various concepts and steps that are involved. Therefore, we will be building a project from start to finish.

This will cover project creation, a walk-through of the various parts of the user interface, project navigation tips, basic settings, wall modelling, door and window creation and settings, roof modelling, 2D documentation (floor plans, elevations, sections), custom title block creation, layout book settings and publishing to PDF.

The following are the main sections as explained above:

Introduction

ARCHICAD Navigation Basics

Floor Plan Creation Basics

Dimensioning

Publishing Your Drawings

Quantity Schedules and Reports

Other Essentials

Methodology

I designed this course with the complete beginner in mind. The sections are broken down into step-by-step tutorials taught at a slow pace to make it easy to follow along and understand. With project files and PDF resources for reference, you will be able to work alongside the instructor every step of the way to develop your project from start to finish.
Who this course is for:

Architecture, Engineering and Construction students with basic to no ARCHICAD skills and want to learn the full process of implementing a project in an ARCHICAD BIM environment.
Beginner ARCHICAD users who want to improve their ARCHICAD 2D + 3D Modelling and Documenting skills.
