About Archicad's design tools, element connections, modeling concepts, etc.

Double curvature, ideally solid

I need to model these funky precast panels and use them in ArchiCAD. I am told they are not hard to model in Sketchup, but that they will get all messed up when bringing them into ArchiCAD.

So would the C4D add-on be the only way?

Sometimes the good old AutoCAd is best! Yes, we have to admit it!
It took about 30 minutes to model this including the preliminary plan and side drawings!
It is such tasks that make me still keep AutoCAD on my computer!

Finally back in AC!

I really hate the way AC imports 3D geometry from other applications! It took me 1,5 hours to just transform it the way it looks now!

Of course, smoothness is gone!

Here is my stab at this, with sketchup.
