Join this BIM in 30 Minutes webinar to discover how easy it is to convert 2D detail drawings into 3D model details. You’ll see how this technique can be used for different types of detailing including residential, commercial, retail and historical. Learn how to:
- Convert a 2D drawing into a 3D detail.
- Connect building materials to details for visualization and schedules.
- Extract a 2D detail drawing from a 3D detail with annotation.
Timothy Ball with jhd Architects rarely draws in 2D. He prefers to resolve design and construction details in 3D. “You can’t fake it in 3D” says Ball. When you model in 3D with detail “you have the confidence that what you are designing can actually be built.”

A recent edition of Dodge Data & Analytics predicts that renovations to existing offices will see the biggest gains in 2021. During this BIM in 30 Minutes webinar discover why Archicad is increasing being used for renovating and updating existing offices. You’ll learn how a BIM tool can be used to quickly add existing conditions for demolition drawings and how this helps expedite the new design work. You’ll also uncover situations where existing conditions do not have to be completely modeled, as well as how to get your drawings to look the way you want them to look.Join us to examine…
- How to model existing conditions quickly and accurately
- How to increase productivity with documentation and details of existing and new construction
- How to manage phases and renovation filters to control the display of drawings
In this presentation we will review an adaptive reuse project from Heather Young Architects that converts an existing 1980’s commercial building into a modern, open air structure. We will review how the HYA used Archicad to manage multiple tenant options, visualize the building renovation, document the project and communicate design intent with 3D based detailing.

As the economy rebounds home remodels account for a large part of construction projects but managing the various stages can be a struggle. Join this BIM in 30 Minutes webinar to explore why Archicad is the leading renovation solution for architecture firms, design-build, and interior designers.
We will review projects from several firms including Passacantando Architects who “use the renovation filter to help see what needs to remain and what could be torn down”, explained Andrew Passacantando when talking about the recent renovation of a historic home. “Showing the existing conditions and proposed changes made it easier for us to communicate with the folks involved in approving our ideas.”
Managing a Remodel
The Renovation Filter is a powerful tool in Archicad to organize the phases of a remodel including existing, demo, after demolition, new construction, and planned status.
Presenting Design Options
Easily manage different design options for presentations and early design iterations with Renovation Filters, Layers, and Saved Views.
Modeling Existing Details
If you know how to draft a 2D detail then you’ll be able to easily model custom extrusions for eave details, interior moldings, structural footings, and much more.
