VisualARQ is a Rhino plugin adds architectural features and parametric architectural objects that are suitable for both 3D modelling and 2D documentation. Go through any architectural project design process with an intuitive, easy and efficient workflow. Curved walls, free-form surfaces, free-form beams... any complex architecture design is possible. Cut sections, make plans. No matter how complex your design is, you can save time getting all project documentation automatically from the 3D model. Floor plans, sections, elevations, surfaces, dimensions, and all object information are linked to and created from the 3D model. VisualARQ generates documents that combine drawing plans, the three dimensional model, and data tables, and all drawings are updated automatically after any change. You can even import your Auto - CAD 2D files, or create them in Rhino. With VisualARQ you can convert lines in 3D walls, roofs, slabs, etc. with just a few clicks. VisualARQ has a library set of parametric architectural objects: Walls, Beams, Columns, Windows, Doors, Slabs, Stairs and Roofs. Objects are easy to create, modify and edit at anytime, and automatic recalculation adjusts them to changes. VisualARQ adds BIM (Building Information Modelling) features to Rhinoceros: geometry and object data are linked, and files are exported in . IFC file format. VisualARQ supports import and export from and to any file format supported by Rhino. VisualARQ can be combined with other Rhino plugins in order to extend the modelling, analysis and design capabilities. The Grasshopper integration and components allow you to create and work with VisualARQ architectural objects directly from Grasshopper. The VisualARQ Zoo plug-in allows you to share VisualARQ licenses (product keys) among users on the same network workgroup. Compatibility with other Rhino plugins for architecture, such as Grasshopper, Dynamic Display, Paneling tools, Savanna 3D, etc. Constant development to integrate more tools: Rhino - Bim, Evolute Tools, etc... VisualARQ material manager supports materials of all render engines that are supported by Rhino. Create lights and assign materials to objects, to get high quality images of interior and exterior architecture. VisualARQ Features - Grasshopper Styles - Create new VisualARQ object styles from Grasshopper definitions - Hidden line 2D vector drawings - Just print the 3D model in Perspective, Section and Plan views for a real time 2D vector output. - Custom Parameters - Create new parameters and add information to Rhino and VisualARQ objects so you can generate quantity takeoffs. - Section Manager - Manage the sections in your model as you manage levels with the Level Manager. Element and Furniture objects - New objects to generate parametric custom objects with different representations in 2D and 3D. Annotation object - New 2D parametric element for symbols and annotations in 2D drawings. - Add + Subtract solids - Do Boolean unions and differences between Rhino solids and any VisualARQ object without losing their parametric properties. - IFC materials and attributes - Materials, colours and layers are now imported and exported within IFC files. - Beam joints and end cuts - Beams calculate intersections and beam cuts can be defined at ends. Roof features - Roof interesections, roofs from surfaces, and multilayer roof styles. Space features3D display, curtain walls are detected, option to add and remove elements for space calculations. - Object selection commands - New commands to easily select VisualARQ objects of the same type. - Support for external references - Fixed bugs related to VisualARQ support of objects in blocks and external references. - Dockable insert dialogs - Improved insert dialogs that can be docked for a better workflow. - Tag and Section symbols - Symbols for tags and section arrows can be
