5. Collaboration

5.1. Setting up a TeamWork environment [01:14]

With ArchiCAD's innovative and award-winning TeamWork concept, teams of architects can easily share their projects across a local network or intranet, without hassle or hierarchy. This clip will prove to you that setting up a teamwork environment takes only a couple of minutes.

5.2. Working in teams [00:44]

When a project file is shared - a satellite of the project is then created on the team member's computer, eliminating dependence on a live network. At any time - by network or by modem - team members can send changes to the master project and receive changes that others have made.

5.3. Project MarkUp [01:00]

ArchiCAD's MarkUp tools ensure streamlined collaboration between team members. Using the MarkUp tools, designers can easily exchange design-related information and explore design alternatives and proposals.

5.4. Working with hotlinked modules [00:52]

You can use ArchiCAD's hotlinked module files to design repetitive structures and elements of your project. Users can control each placement of a module in a plan individually.

5.5. Working with MarkUp entries [01:20]

After opening a MarkUp entry, you can immediately see the comments and design proposals of the other team members. Use ArchiCAD's enhanced MarkUp tools to host design discussions and discuss and evaluate design ideas and alternatives.

5.6. Publisher [00:58]

ArchiCAD is always on hand to share your design ideas - and all the stages of the project design development - with your colleagues, engineers, consultants and clients using various file formats and standards. With Publisher you can easily create custom documentation sets, which will always be updated and consistent, and can be published at any time with the click of the mouse.

5.7. Reviewer [00:54]

ArchiCAD helps you share your design for review and markup without even having ArchiCAD installed on the reviewer's machine (as only a regular Internet browser is necessary). The client can freely browse the project-set remotely, review the design and use the MarkUp tool to communicate his/her comments.
