ARCHICAD is a BIM authoring tool preferred by over 200,000 architects worldwide. BIM (Building Information Modeling) is a digital representation of a building's physical and functional characteristics. ARCHICAD uses BIMServer and BIMcloud for data administration and BIMx for data access including on mobile. BIMcloud enables smooth collaboration between design teams while BIMx's award-winning mobile app allows non-professionals to easily view BIM models on-site. ARCHICAD's parametric library contains over 1,000 elements customized to local standards.

1. ARCHICAD - BIM
 What’s ARCHICAD – It’s the BIM authoring and preffered design tool by more than 200 000
Architects world wide.
 What’s BIM – Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a digital presentation of physical and
functional of buildings. It ‘s shared information which one can collaborate with other
stakeholders of the construction project.
SOLUTION ECOSYSTEM
BIM Authoring tool = ARCHICAD
BIM Data Administration = BIMServer&BIMcloud
BIM Data Access = BIMx
BIMcloud are solutions for smooth and intelligent collaboration for the architectural design teams of any
size.
BIMx for BIM Data Access = Award winning mobile app , non prof’s can easily access & view BIM models,
created by ARCHICAD
In BIMx virtual tours help the clients better understand the design and get familiar with the relations
between interior spaces.
• Another important aspect of a BIM application is the type of local content that comes with the
software
• ARCHICAD comes with a preinstalled library of more than 1000 generic architectural elements and
These objects are parametric in their finest details and are customized to your local standards
• BIM’s Interactive Cutting Planes provides a simple way to reveal the internal parts of the model.
• ARCHICAD has a layer structure which can be very helpful in organizing information in a
logical manner
ARCHICAD’s Graphical Favorites functionality
• In ARCHICAD there is a smart way of picking up the parameters of an element and transferring
them to another. With the help
of the pipette you can just click any element to pick up its parameters and with the help of the syringe you
can transfer them to another element.
• Here it is, the wall junction is now correct. Intersection Priorities based on Building Materials
make sure the connection of composite structures will be 100% correct on all views of
the project
• A consistent and really graphical way of editing BIM models = Pet pallete = easy and fun
• Trace and Reference functionality allows you to trace your
current view on top of another.
• Automatic dimensioning is a typical functionality which allows you to spend more time on design
• 3D documents enhance
the design communication with contractors and clients by revealing complex details of your buildings.

9. BIMX
BIM project presentation on mobile devices
Multi-award winning BIMx features the Hyper-model, a
unique technology for integrated 2D and 3D building
project navigation. BIMx helps bridge the gap between
the design studio and the construction site.
EXPERIENCE BIMX ON VIRTUAL REALITY – Bimx is
compatible with google cardboard which makes it easy to
experience the building design on IOS and Android smart
phones.
BIMx is fantastic as it allows the Architect to easily travel
with work from his/her desk to onsite of construction.
Allowing you to take your design wherever you go.
1. Easy access - BIM Data Access, BIM contains a lot of
information, you can choose infor set to be published with your
hyper model.
2. Synced updates – Synced updates from the cloud
3. External links – Link to BIMx elements from external
facility management database or websites.
4. Smart measure – Smart measure on IOS, get precise
data from 3D model or the 2D plans,
on BIMx pro.
5. Team collaboration – Team collaboration – Team
collaboration in the cloud
6. Printing – Print using air print or google cloud print
