Focal points
ArchiCAD is a development for the construction industry. It is based on BIM (Building Information Modeling), which Graphisoft used to call Virtual Building: 3D model data, dimensions, material properties, classifications and properties are stored. This can be used to generate plans in all architectural service phases such as work planning, rendered models, mass lists, living space calculations, detailed plans, parts lists or to transfer the 3D building model to a tendering program via the IFC interface.
Archicad is available as a commercially usable version, as a student version or as a 30-day trial version. Serial numbers for the free student version or the trial versions are available at myArchicad.com after registration.

Applications range from building models for Google Earth to rough design models by architects for architectural illustration to illustration and product design.
