Architecture toolset features

• 8,800+ architectural components

Make use of over 8,800 intelligent architectural components, including multi-level blocks, to support various layer standards. Should one of the pre-existing layer standards not meet the needs of your project, you can create your own by customizing an existing one. Learn more

• Automatic object generation

Save time and increase productivity by automatically generating commonly used architectural objects such as floor plans, elevations, sections, and ceiling grids. Learn more

• Walls, doors, and windows

Use elements with real-world behavior and construction, allowing for quicker placement in the documents and drawings that you create. Learn more

• Drawing version management

Check out and check in files to maintain versioning, prevent unauthorized modifications, and ensure drawing integrity. Easily revert to an earlier version of your drawing with comments history, and view the drawing name appended with check-in time. Learn more

• Support for layer standards

The toolset creates multiple layers according to the current standard, using predefined layer standards and matching layer key styles. This lets you automatically generate layers as needed when you add objects to a drawing. Learn more

• Display System

With the Display System, you only have to draw an architectural object once. The appearance of that object will change automatically to meet the display requirements of different types of drawings, view directions, and levels of detail. Learn more

• Designing with space and zone objects

Enhance your design options. Organize reports with spaces, and use zones to structure spaces into various groups, according to different schemes. Learn more

• Detail Component Manager

Use the Detail Component Manager dialog box to seamlessly navigate between different detail component databases. A hierarchical tree view and a filter feature make it easy to locate individual components within a database. Learn more

• Architectural renovation

Display existing, demolished, and new construction in a single drawing. This lets you design and produce renovations more quickly, while avoiding errors typically caused by editing multiple drawings. Learn more
