In a typical “Solo” project, these drawings are created from live views in the same model. The layout book provides an essential workflow in taking drawings and documentation live from the model, and publishing 2D drawings. Xrefs are also very useful for attaching manufacturer drawings as standard details. Modifications made by consultants can be automatically updated in the ARCHICAD project, using Trace & Reference to identify any conflicts arising from the changes. Xrefs provide an easy way to manage and merge consultants’ drawings into the ARCHICAD project. ARCHICAD Teamwork also gives the option to reference these external drawings as Xrefs. This helps to streamline the process of bringing in updated IFC files later in the project.ĪRCHICAD Teamwork allows you to import and export 2D drawings, including DWGs and DXFs. ARCHICAD Teamwork allows IFC files to be “hotlinked” into your file, keeping the IFC files’ attributes separate to yours. The teamwork of ARCHICAD can import and export IFC files, it is recommended to reference external IFC files into your ARCHICAD project. It is ISO-certified, and the only open and standard 3D object-oriented exchange format used by BIM. IFC is a neutral file format that makes it possible to exchange information between different software systems. Hotlinks can also be used in combination with the BIMcloud to enable real-time collaboration across all project files within the project. If a module changes, it’s then quick and easy to update as all instances across the project in one step.

Identical room layouts, stories, and house types can be linked to the host project multiple times, speeding up the modeling process. Hotlink modules provide a method to divide larger models into smaller, easier‐to‐manage subparts and are typically used to manage the repetitive structures across a project. By reducing the file size of these interactions, your team can work together in real-time across your network and through standard internet connections from virtually anywhere in the world.īIMcloud also allows instant communication and task management across the design team and various levels of access and editing rights.

Unlike other systems, only changes in the project are synchronized with the BIMcloud, dramatically reducing the amount of data being transferred. Graphisoft BIMcloud provides a platform for Teamwork projects, allowing multiple team members to work on a model and its documentation simultaneously. As the name suggests, ARCHICAD Teamwork helps a design team collaborate, allowing the team to work together to produce a Virtual Building model and associated drawings and documentation.ĪRCHICAD Teamwork exclusive features are as follows:
