VisualARQ 2

What is VisualARQ 2?

VisualARQ 2 adds architectural features and parametric architectural objects that are suitable for 3D modeling and 2D documentation

Main features

Freeform modeling: provided by Rhino

Converts any freeform geometry into an object

Grasshopper Integration

Defines your workflow by automating the creation of objects and shapes of objects by visual programming

Flexible BIM

Adds BIM to Rhino, as well as object shapes to control information and parameters and IFC for interoperability between teams and applications

Strong Documentation

Contains dynamic and accurate documentation that will always be available through VisualARQ 3D Model

Parametric architectural objects

Work with BIM objects as well as walls, curtains, beams, columns, openings, stairs, and other custom objects driven by parametric properties and styles

Easy management and user interface

Organize your project by levels, sections, layers, spreadsheets, templates, and more with user-friendly dialogs

Architectural visualization

Assign materials, activate sections, and generate great architectural visualizations of your project

Team collaboration

Contains file format support, floating network licenses, external references, and other media

2D vector drawings of the hidden line

View and print 3D drawings in perspective, section, and plane model

Real estate objects and new elements

Contains new functions for creating custom parametric objects with different 2D and 3D representations

New annotation object

New 2D parametric element for symbols and annotations in 2D drawings

Adds and subtracts solid objects

Makes Boolean Unions between different solid objects of Rhino and VisualARQ without losing their parametric properties

IFC attributes and materials

Imports and exports materials, colors, and layers with IFC files

Beam joints and final cuts

Calculates the intersections and cuts of the beams

New roof ing characteristics

Contains intersections, surfaces, and roof styles

New space characteristics

Adds or removes elements and calculates space on a 3D display

Interoperability with other tools
