- Hi, I'm Thiago Mundim, and welcome to the Up and Running with ArchiCAD. ArchiCAD is an award-winning software for architects that is fun to learn, intuitive to use, and it will open the doors of BIM for you. In this course, we will begin to understand the workflow of ArchiCAD, starting with modeling basic elements of architecture, such as walls, slabs, doors, and windows. Then move to documenting, where we will create some sections, elevations, insert dimensions and levels, and finally, create and publish your layouts in the most familiar formats.
We will cover how to share your project with clients and consultants, using tablets and smartphones. So let's get started.
