BIM workflow in Rhino with VisualARQ and Grasshopper


Description:

- VisualARQ is a “FlexibleBIM” solution for Rhino. In this presentation, you will learn the architectural features VisualARQ adds to Rhino and Grasshopper for developing a project of architecture inside Rhino, producing the 2D documentation drawings, and delivering a BIM model for other AEC applications.


You will see:
- How to work with parametric architectural objects.
- The Level and Section manager, which let you work and organize the model at different levels and sections.
- How to produce 2D drawings from the 3D model
- How to generate dynamic BIM objects driven by Grasshopper (also known as “VisualARQ Grasshopper styles”) with unlimited options of design.
- How to automate many modeling tasks through the VisualARQ components built for Grasshopper 3D.
- How to add custom data to geometry and list in schedules.
- How to deliver BIM models and collaborate with other tools through the IFC import/export capabilities, and Rhino.Inside (Revit).
