Convert your 2D floor plan drawings into a 3D ArchiCAD model from DXF and DWG files

Plan2Model provides architects the power to turn your 2D floor plans into 3D ArchiCAD models quickly and effectively. With this ArchiCAD 7.0 add-on, representations of 2D elements on floor plans can be converted to objects in an ArchiCAD model automatically and/or semi-automatically. Use source data in any file format 2D floor plan, such as DXF and DWG files or imported sketches and drawings processed by raster-to-vector conversion software. The simple vector entities – lines, polylines, arcs, and circles that make up 2D floor plans are converted by Plan2Model into a full ArchiCAD intelligent building model containing walls, columns, windows, doors, beams and other objects.

Convert 2D Legacy Work Efficiently
There is a large gap between vector data provided by AutoCAD and other 2D drafting systems’ 2D-drawings and ArchiCAD building model’s objects. In ArchiCAD, the building blocks are not simple geometrical primitives like lines, polylines, arcs and circles but are ‘construction elements’ - walls, windows, doors and the like. Plan2Model bridges this gap making integration of your archive drawings to ArchiCAD quick and easy. The one-click conversion eliminates the lengthy process of manual data entry, multiplying your efficiency in this phase.

Also take full advantage of Plan2Model’s capabilities for converting your scanned drawings. Plan2Model also supports vector data created by raster-to-vector conversion software. To create an ArchiCAD model from this kind of source data without Plan2Model would take the same time and effort as to create a model from scratch.
