About ArchiCAD 29

GRAPHISOFT ArchiCAD This is a top-tier program specifically for architects and home designers. Its coolness lies in its BIM (Building Information Modeling) functionality, which differs from typical drawing programs in that it doesn't just draw 2D images, it creates a true virtual model. If you draw a wall in a 2D plan, the program automatically creates a 3D wall. Furthermore, you can add information about materials, surfaces, and structure, allowing you to clearly visualize the building even before the foundation is laid.

Another feature that people working on large projects really like is how much it reduces the headache of paperwork. When you make changes to a particular section, the sections, elevations, and bill of materials (BOQ) all update automatically, eliminating the need to edit each page individually. Plus, it has a system that allows architects and engineers to collaborate on the same file in real-time. It's a truly all-in-one tool that makes house design easier and more accurate than before.

Collaborate Working with MEP and structural engineers is easier; BIM functionality and collaboration enhancements are possible.
Design Greater design freedom, improved usability and navigation, and more accurate quantity takeoffs.
Visualize Realistic shadows and customizable textures; enhanced rendering capabilities.
Document More accurate volume and cost estimations; new options for Zone and MEP.

Key Features

Smart Objects: Instead of drawing two lines to represent a wall, you'll use a real wall tool to draw it directly. This tool will include thickness, material, and heat values. Once drawn, you'll instantly have both a 2D plan and a 3D model, saving you time on redundant work.
Automatic document updates: The best feature is that you only need to make one change to update all sheets. If you move a window in the floor plan, the section and elevation drawings will all related sheets will automatically adjust accordingly. Even the material quantities in the BOQ will be recalculated.
Teamwork & BIMcloud: Multiple office employees can open the same file and collaborate on modeling simultaneously in real-time without the files conflicting.
BIMx (Presentation like a pro): The program includes an app called BIMx that allows you to send project files to clients for viewing on their mobile phones or iPads. Clients can pinch and zoom in on 2D views or even walk through the house in 3D, like playing a game, making project communication much easier.
Stair & Railing: There's a pretty smart system for designing stairs and railings. You just draw lines across the area, and the program automatically calculates the number of steps to meet legal standards.

What's new in ArchiCAD 29?

AI Assistant (BETA) – The most impressive feature is the integration of an AI chatbot directly into the program. We can type commands using natural language to have it search for commands, provide usage instructions, or even help select objects in a project without having to navigate through menus. This makes it much faster for beginners to get started.
MEP Designer - Design systems in one place. Normally, MEP (electrical, plumbing, HVAC) systems are handled in separate programs or using plugins, but in version 29, Graphisoft has fully integrated MEP Designer into ArchiCAD. This allows architects to seamlessly lay out pipes and wiring in the same model, and includes an automatic pipe sizing calculation system.
Productivity & Documentation
- Quick Rotate: You can instantly rotate an object 90 degrees using a keyboard shortcut (no need to use the old Rotate command which required multiple clicks).
- Place Openings in Section/Elevation: Now we can create openings, such as windows or pipe openings, directly from a section or elevation view, without having to go back to the 2D plan.
- Filter Unused Views: There's a system to filter out views we've created but haven't actually used in the layout, helping to keep the project file cleaner and less resource-intensive.
Display and graphics
- Dark Mode (macOS): Full dark mode support for Mac users makes working at night more comfortable for your eyes.
- 3D Resolution Control: We can set the resolution (DPI) of the 3D image to be placed in the layout page ourselves, in order to get the sharpest image when printing.
