If you’re still using 2D CAD such as AutoCAD or Vectorworks and you’re curious about BIM you should attend this seminar where we’ll introduce you to:
- An overview of BIM (Building Information Modeling)
- Advantages and benefits of an integrated 2D/3D workflow
- How to create a smooth transition from traditional CAD to BIM
While 2D CAD systems are very powerful for drafting they fall short when coordinating project changes. This is why businesses are shifting to BIM to increase productivity and streamline a project’s workflow to:
- Avoid mistakes due to different modifications
- Improve the coordination between the different disciplines
- Better analyze the building’s properties
- and much more…
Get a jump start on learning the basics of BIM and how to model for real-time visualization. We will focus on how to quickly create a project model with simple andconcise steps. In this training you will learn:
- Overview of the ARCHICAD interface
- Understanding how to navigate a project with views.
- Tips for 2D and 3D navigation
- Commonly used keyboard shortcuts and commands
- Instructions for drawing, modeling and editing
- Other essentials to familiarize yourself with creating a design using ARCHICAD’s modeling tools.
TOPIC: Sharing Projects | Sharing Inspiration
Since we are going virtual with User Groups for the time being, we thought we would encompass users throughout Oregon and Washington into one Pacific Northwest User Group.
To kick this off we’re asking for volunteers to share one of their projects with the group. Since it’s virtual and you’ll be at your computer, this should require very little prep. You’ll simply share your screen and tell us about your project.
Please let us know if you’d like to share so we can plan accordingly.
