What part are you having troubles with?

Best thing to do if you're new to ArchiCAD is watch their excellent video series on YouTube. Here's a link to playlists that explain all the tools.

Start with the basics, such as the wall tool, column tool, and and slab tool.

I also highly recommend watching the Graphisoft Essentials Guide also at the link shown above. In fact, you might want to watch that first.

1: make a single column with the column tool.[tool bar]

2: Matrix/Array this column to the required spread and distribution grid using the Multiply Tool.[Command-U]

If neither of these suggestions makes sense, it is time to begin basic tutorials.

Thank for reply.

In fact i have a floor plan as a jpeg file. This i need it as a new drawing in archiCAD because there is also something to change (for example some rooms have to move to a other place) on the plan.
I am not a architect or anything like that. I need it for privately. Already try several times by myself to draw it but it don´t work.

The Floor Plan have a Concrete Columns Grid. And between the Columns it have breeze standard blocks. That´s too much difficult for me. But i think for somebody professional might be just a couples of minutes.

Anybody care and of course have free time for do it for me?
