ArchiFrame & ARCHICAD
ArchiFrame is an innovative design tool for framing structures that combines engineering with aesthetics. It is an ARCHICAD extension that provides for more
user-friendly wood and metal structuring and design.
Join us to examine how ArchiFrame:
• makes it easy to structure roofs, walls, floors, frames, panels, and wooden elements
• reshapes planks and beams in one click
• sits within your ARCHICAD file — including 3D models and 2D elevations with semi-automated layouts and listings
• improves processes and project management.
Discover why ArchiFrame is the ultimate end-to-end modeling software for wood and metal framing.
“ArchiFrame is a bridge between the design and the construction process. Design drawings in Archicad to light gauge steel frame construction drawings in ArchiFrame with Teamwork is a seamless process. Our company has been using this tool since 2016 and we completely love it. It saves time and money, providing a clear 3d visualization of the CORE structure to the workers on the field.”
– Yuga Chaudhari Building Technology Manager, Healthy Buildings Management Group

With the release of Archicad 25 this new version adds powerful features for designing and visualizing interiors. Join this BIM in 30 Minutes webinar to explore how architects, interior designers and design build professionals use Archicad to create custom cabinetry, visualize interior spaces, assemble digital material boards, manage furniture selections and much more.
We also invite you to hear from Olvia Demetriou, a Principal with the award winning firm HapstakDemetriou, who specializes in restaurants, multi-family and retail design. She will discuss the decision process that led her firm to embrace 3D design via Archicad. As the key principal and face of HapstakDemetriou+, Olvia invested the time to learn the platform alongside her teams, and found that it inspired her to levels of creativity and collaboration as exciting as it was surprising.
