Generating Walls on CAD Files

ARCHLine.XP 2024 automatically generates BIM models from 2D DWG floor plans.

This intelligent tool interprets 2D drawing and transforms it into 3D model, speeding up the design process and giving designers more time for creative work.

The algorithm "reviews" the drawing and analyzes it taking into account the specified wall and opening limits.
During the "review", it filters out unnecessary content and looks for those drawing samples that can be said with high certainty to represent walls, doors and windows.
These are transformed into real architectural elements in the next step.
The process is very fast, and architectural models of several hundred m2 office buildings can be completed in a few seconds.

In what proportion does the program recognize the walls and windows on the floor plan?
If the algorithm processes a CAD drawing, a recognition efficiency of 90-95% is also available.
Of course, there may also be patterns on the drawing that cause false results, such as pergolas, whose representation may mislead the software.
Therefore, it is always worth reviewing the result with a designer's eye before further design processing.
Overall, depending on the complexity of the design, several hours of work can be saved with the new algorithm of ARCHLine.XP 2024.

1. Import CAD

Import and place the CAD drawing on the 2D floor plan view.

2. Create a local group 

Create a local group from the imported CAD drawing.

4. Generative floor plan - Converting lines to walls

Converting lines to walls is an automatic process-

Enter the limit values in the dialog then press Ok.
