Phase 4: Construction Documentation

Using 3D data-driven tools from project inception maintains model quality while making construction documentation a breeze. Vectorworks Architect’s BIM tools means updates to your model automatically updates documentation. Collaborate with anyone without compromising your design process with the software that supports your entire project lifecycle.

Imagine it. Design it. Document it.

BIM software isn’t exactly known for promoting creative expression. But Vectorworks is different. We allow you to freely sketch, model, and document your design ideas with precision drafting capabilities and the most flexible 3D modelling engine available, powered by SIEMENS Parasolid. So you’re not limited by presets and strict parameters — you have the flexibility you need to design anything you can imagine.

Maximise the I in BIM

Getting the most out of the “I” in Building Information Modelling is essential for optimising your designs. Vectorworks makes it easy to quantify and analyse information as early as the schematic design phase so you can make smart decisions. Run “what if” scenarios and automate schedules, calculate costs, analyse energy efficiency to maximise each design element.
