Product catalog summary
Introduction
GRAPHISOFT ArchiCAD® Virtual Building™ facilitates open design collaboration between architects and engineers through Building Information Modeling (BIM). This technology enhances design workflows, reduces coordination errors, and supports interdisciplinary collaboration.

Building Information Modeling (BIM)
BIM enables seamless collaboration between architects and engineers by using intelligent, model-based workflows. ArchiCAD 14 introduces open design collaboration workflows, reducing coordination errors and enhancing project management.

GRAPHISOFT BIM Server
The BIM server, featuring Delta Server technology, minimizes network traffic and allows real-time collaboration. It supports remote access, improving teamwork management and project workflow. The "Solo" mode and TravelPack™ option enhance flexibility and remote access.

Workflow Management
ArchiCAD provides tools for managing large design teams, offering customizable user roles and project access. The BIM Server Performance Monitor aids project leaders in decision-making for optimal workflow.

Interdisciplinary Collaboration
ArchiCAD 14 enhances collaboration with engineers through IFC technology, allowing model-based version tracking and comparison. This feature highlights design changes and improves coordination.

3D Modeling and Documentation
ArchiCAD allows architects to create 3D virtual models, automatically generating necessary documentation. The 3D Document capability improves communication by allowing annotations and 2D elements in 3D views.

System Requirements
ArchiCAD 14 supports Windows and Mac OS, requiring a minimum of 2 GB RAM and 1 GB free disk space. It recommends a multicore processor and a high-resolution display for optimal performance.

Conclusion
ArchiCAD empowers architects to explore design ideas freely while maintaining documentation precision. It combines creative freedom with efficient workflow management, making it a powerful tool for architectural design and collaboration.
