® Architectureallows you to leverage many international and regional industry standards, or easily customize andexpand these standards to meet the needs of your practice. Intelligent, building information modeling enables automated drawing and reporting that is fully coordinated and customizable to suit your needs. Drawings are automatically generated using industry-standard drawing conventions. Reports such as material take-offs, program analysis, schedules and outline specifications can also be automatically generated to complement your drawings. With sophisticated rendering and animation capabilities built right in, you have all the tools needed to fully design, document and present your project. >
2D/3D choice—Work in 2D. Work in 2D, 3D or Both
The building information model can be created and manipulated using either a 2D or 3D interface and
workflow. You can even have the 3D model and 2D drawings automatically linked and work in both. >
Automated Drawing Production and Coordination
2D/3D choice—Work in 3D. From the model, drawings can be automatically generated using either common or customized
representations. All drawings are fully coordinated with each other and the 3D model. >
Integrated Reporting
Material quantity takeoffs, member counts, volume analysis and more are all available to quickly and
accurately report on the model for costing, scheduling or other design and documentation. >
Integrated Visualization
With powerful rendering, animation, lighting and camera controls, you can easily and effectively evaluate
your design, communicate design intent with the project team and produce convincing presentations. >
Integrated Visualization—rendering, animation, VR and analysis. Integrated with Enterprise Solutions
