FrameWright

Encina has developed a powerful timber framing add-on for ArchiCAD in partnership with The Oak Frame Carpentry Company Ltd. Designing the software in cooperation with a framer has ensured the objects and tools are relevant, familiar, and easy to use. Some of the highlights are listed below:

Smart framing objects
Virtual framing yard
Editable 3D model
Smart annotation
Scheduling
Jointing

This means less time to prepare cost estimates and working drawings, reduced scope for errors, and the added bonus of walk-throughs and perspectives. Design alterations are simple to produce, and changes are automatically echoed throughout the documentation. Encina makes design flexibility a high priority. Our primary aims are to

Ensure the framing design is driven by you, not an automated procedure;
Enable complete editing control over framing after it has been placed in the model.
