Automating an AI-supported workflow across architecture, structure, and MEP

[#1]

Join Graphisoft, Catenda, and MAIA360 for a webinar workflow presentation on model-based opening and penetration planning and coordination. Coordinate and manage entire projects in Catenda’s Common Data Environment, where the whole team works from the same live models, drawings and documents, in any browser.

Date: September 24, 2026 | 14:00 - 15:00 CEST  

Language: English | The webinar recording will be available after the premiere with subtitles in German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, French, Japanese and Hungarian.

Join for insights on:

• How dedicated MEP models and automated BCF issue generation turn opening and penetration coordination into a structured, model-based process

• Managing status, responsibilities, comments, and approvals transparently across Architecture, Structure, and MEP in a shared coordination platform

• Using AI-assisted issue processing to summarize discussions, flag missing decisions, and help teams prioritize what needs resolving

• How approved openings and penetrations transfer automatically into native Archicad Architectural and Structural models, no manual rework required

Agenda
