ARCHICAD is more than just a box of software – it is an investment in BIM technology and new ways of working. If you are a current ARCHICAD professional user, university student/educator, or just simply been thinking about what BIM software solution to use, watching these 5 recorded videos of ARCHICAD 23 webinars would be an excellent start. Besides, by the end of this month we have an ARCHICAD 23 upgrade training (free of charge) with live streaming format that brings 12 hours of...

GRAPHISOFT supports students, educators, researchers and schools with its BIM software solutions by providing free educational ARCHICAD licenses during their educational activities. This support has been given for many years, but from 14 October 2019 the professional trial access to ARCHICAD is separated from educational site in order to provide a specialized customer care for professionals and a better educational support for students, educators, and researchers. This new approach is...

We all know that BIM has been introduced into construction industry by slogan of save time and money (plus being more efficient and accurate). But the real question is, how shall we explain this slogan in real practice. Let’s look at MacLeamy diagram, the comparison of preferred design process (graph 4) and traditional methods (graph 3) shows that the main challenge and efforts of design process shift to schematic and design development phase by using preferred design process. It means faster...

As previous versions of ARCHICAD has fulfilled most of necessities and requirements (or perhaps all) of architects, ARCHICAD 23 will be a unique release of ARCHICAD that is now working towards more engineering BIM solutions to empower engineers that need to work side by side of architects. So, as ARCHICAD distributor and training center, we have started to release different technical materials for ARCHICAD 23 such as series of webinars, technical articles, new feature videos in Spanish and so...

ARCHICAD 23 announced with a brand-new structural modeling tool for column and beams. This new feature is not just a fancy upgrade of existing column and beam tool, but a revolutionary solution that enables element-level modeling for columns and beams. It comes very handy specially when we are dealing with modeling, data management, and documentation of prefabricated structural elements such as reinforced concrete, steel, timber and composite structures.

ARCHICAD widely known as one of the best (or the best) BIM authoring software that provides most comprehensive IFC import and export with absolute control over all the parameters of the elements within an IFC file. It is a true OPENBIM solution, but parallel to be one of the best solutions for OPENBIM interoperability, ARCHICAD 23 provides a unique system integration with selected pioneer BIM solutions to improve productivity and quality of BIM-based design, build, and building operations.

ARCHICAD 23 brings a fast and highly reliable performance to deal with BIM models. We all know multi-core process capacity of ARCHICAD as a key differentiator between ARCHICAD and other BIM authoring software, but the new version of ARCHICAD brings much more smart way manage resources to provide better user experience. In this post I want to highlight 5 important new features of ARCHICAD 23 that provide much higher performance for different workflows:

In ARCHICAD 23 we can use a new tool to place openings in load-bearing elements. This tool enables architects and engineers to easily exchange data about openings in structural elements such as beams or load-bearing walls, but very smartly for structural reasons not applicable to columns. For instance, now when architects need to consider the space for passing pipes, they can place the new opening type in their model, which would be referenced and considered in both structural and MEP model...

Nowadays you can access to many different resources to learn new skills such as reading this blog post, watching know-how videos, attending webinars, and so on, then why do you bother to attend #graphisoftLEARN Master Classes in Budapest? Well, if this is how you think about this event, then you are missing out one of the best opportunities to take your ARCHICAD and BIM skills to next level. 

During June 2019 we held first series of ARCHICAD 23 webinars for Spanish market. It was an amazing experience when we received many happy and encouraging feedback from attendees to our webinars.

Barcelona, 13 June 2019 On 14th May 2019 GRAPHISOFT announced the release of ARCHICAD 23, and on 4th June held its world premiere in Las Vegas. Now we are happy to announce very first public webinar of ARCHICAD 23 in Spain Click here to register for free
