When it comes to Nesting, Revit's complexity allows a user to create unique materials and objects to suit their specific needs. When it comes to massing, Revit can produce complex shapes and models, while ArchiCAD is a little simpler, so it tends to have less capability. Nos évaluateurs ont préféré la direction d'Archicad pour les mises à jour des fonctionnalités. Les évaluateurs ont estimé qu'Archicad était la meilleure option en matière de support produit continu. In terms of which product is better, easier to learn and use and design in.Les évaluateurs pensent qu'Archicad répond aux besoins de leur entreprise. So my final recommendation is Revit and ONLY because they have the lions share of the market here in the US. In hind sight (its 20/20) I would choose Revit (even though I'm new at it and I dislike it) simply because if you live in the United States and use US based Consultants, most likely your consultants will be using an Autodesk product and they work well together. I truly hate to say this because I really do love AchiCAD, but if you plan on doing any type of work where you will have consultants sharing BIM models and working with other firms BIM models you should choose Revit. we had to finish the project in AutoCAD or rebuild the entire model in Arhicad. but no sheets and nothing but bid bulky objects than cannot be edited.
we though we could just import their fully developed Revit DD model (with sheets and details) into Archicad. For instance we had a partnership with another Design firm and they did the SD and DD portion of the project and we were going to do the CDs.
You may be able to import and IFC from Revit, but it comes in as bulk object that you cannot do anything with until you redraw them as native tools from within ArchiCAD, also you will loose any "sheets" that were setup in Revit during the conversion. Contrary to what their website says, the import and export to and from archiCAD to Revit, Revit Structural and Revit MEP is terrible.
REVIT VS ARCHICAD FULL
So, from a modeling perspective i sooo much prefer Archicad over sketchup, and the plus side is that you have a full 3d walk-through that you can show your clients and you have a good construction set to bid off of. I am the BIM manager for my office and I have built the templates, favorites and done all of the really technical stuff to setup a template so that new users can simply model and already have Construction Sets setup for them. I was a long time AutoCAD + sketchup user for many many years, then we as an office switched to ArchiCAD (started on version 14 and now we are on version 21) and I do absolutely love ArchiCAD. So I just have to add my 2 cents in to this discussion. Let me know if you have any other questions I'd suggest getting a trail version and having a play, and watch advance tutorials to see the power and possibilites! They both do things differently but they both get the job done. Revit can be used for that, it can really be set up for anything depending on the user/company of course.Īt the end of the day everyone has there opinions, and they are both faster/slower than each other in separate areas. It is purely a design and visual program, and its good at that. However exporting in ArchiCad has to be an IFC File to be able to be opened in anything else, the annoying part of this is you loose alot of information and model elements when you export which can be a bit of a pain. I can't comment too much on the 'annotation and 2D side of archiCad but i can with Revit, and its brilliant for annotating, especially in the architectural field.Īs far as Collaboration goes, Revit is a no brainer, it can be used with a big host of programs with no issues. and the support from Autodesk is always going to be great.ĪrchiCad is easy to work with like sketch up, and the graphics are great. Also, being a much more mainstream product, it fits alot nicer into the implementation of the BIM cycle etc. It links brilliantly between familes, parameters and schedules, the possibillites are really unlimited in this area. Revit is an extremely powerful Scheduling tool. Hi really depends what you will be using it for, both can do the same thing if you really want them too.
