Drawboard Projects + Archicad Integration: Streamline BIM Reviews & Issue Tracking

Archicad

Send layouts out for review from inside Archicad and pull the markups back as native Issues.

Archicad is Graphisoft's BIM authoring platform, used by architectural practices to model, document, and issue building projects from a single coordinated model.

Our Drawboard Connection for Archicad add-on handles the review round trip. Publisher Sets go out to your workspace for markup, and the marked-up layouts come back into Archicad as Issues that Issue Manager treats like any other.

Ways to use Drawboard Projects with Archicad

Drawboard Projects and Archicad work together to keep design review attached to the layouts it relates to, from the first consultant markup through to the change in the model.

Coordinate with consultants: Publish the current issue set, mark it up together with your structural and services teams in a live session, and import what comes out of it as Issues.
Review with clients who have no BIM software: Invite clients and builders as guests to comment directly on layouts, so feedback arrives pinned to a location rather than described in an email.
Check documentation before issue: Redline internally in Drawboard Projects, assign Tasks by area or discipline, then import the redlines for your drafters to resolve in Archicad.

Stop retyping review comments into Archicad. Add the Drawboard Connection add-on and keep markups on the layouts they belong to.
