There honestly are not a lot of features left to talk about with this release.

Some of the features, like tracking changes, Multi-discipline Model Hub, are only included in the BIMcloud platform, which is behind a paywall (additional cost per license for access). The list of the new features can be found here. Here in Australia, I don’t see many if any Structural Engineers shifting from Revit to use Archicad unfortunately, so the focus of these features and workflows is of zero value to the majority of Archicad users in Australia. Now, moving onto Archicad 24, sadly I do not think I have picked a good year to review the new features, as the focus of the majority of the features this year is on Collaboration with Structural Engineers in Archicad. After undertaking this task you can then begin the process of training, updating your practice’s template and your manuals to take the new features into account.

You need to review each of the new features and rate them specifically to your organisation’s deliverables and workflows to identify which ones are relevant and which ones are not. In the resource guide, there is a section right near the front dedicated to the new features of that release. But with my ARCHINTENSIVE event earlier this year and the number of services that I provide for individuals and companies that use Archicad I thought it would be important for me to take the time this year to talk through the new release and my thoughts.Īs I have stated in many of my presentations and posts in the past, the first step when opening a new release of Archicad is to go to the resource guide, accessed via the help menu. Honestly, I have been focusing on other business issues. It has been a few years since I have written a blog post on my top features for a new Archicad release. For those of you that didn’t get a chance to watch it live, you can watch the videos here. Last week we saw the announcement of Archicad 24 from GRAPHISOFT in their Building Together event.
