Create energy-saving designs
Energy-conscious buildings are more important now than ever. The most sustainable savings are achieved early in the building design. For example, shape, orientation, and shading can make the difference in a building’s energy performance. Run energy analyses on your BIM model easily to achieve the best performing design with Archicad’s built-in EcoDesigner STAR or Sun Study. Connect to the other solutions available through the Archicad – Grasshopper connection or a model export solution.
Optimize building structures
Archicad puts architects and structural engineers on the same page with structural analytical models automatically generated from the BIM model.
Play by the Rules
Keep the clients happy
