The industry dominates by ArchiCAD and Revit. Their respective software packages are both highly regarded and highly sophisticated. Modeling a building or facility with software and then linking that model to actual information about that building is an example of BIM, which stands for Building Information Modeling.
BIM programs can use by architects to design buildings. Then the BIM program can analyze the structural integrity of the design. As well as determining the material requirements, the program can determine how much is needed.
Features
User Interface
There is no reason to compare Revit and ArchiCAD UIs. In terms of customization and modeling, Revit remains the heaviest hitter.
If you are new to BIMs, on the other hand, and do not require the most complex and spectacular features, ArchiCAD may win since it is more straightforward to use.
If you don’t want to learn Revit, ArchiCAD’s simplicity is the best option. Yet, advanced users of Revit will…
