archicad/HBIM

[LM2F]

Hello group! I would like to share a doubt I can develop some kind of map for identifying and cataloging pathologies with tools that are easy to model, as shown in the example below

 

This image is taken from an HBIM example from the edificius software by acca-software if you could create schedules showing examples of pathologies (shapes or colors as shown in the image) it would be perfect!

I appreciate the help of the community for the development of archicad/HBIM

I would probably try to achieve these patches using images with alpha channels, placed using the Figure Tool in Elevation Viewpoints.

While custom textures or fills aligned with walls would allow for some of the historic pathology that you illustrate, it would not allow scheduling/etc.  Looking at edificius, it seems tailor made for the situation that you are describing - so I would wonder why you wouldn't just use edificius and use the resulting model as a reference model in Archicad - assumning that ediificius can export in a useful format?  I don't think that there is enough demand to add any of these features to Archicad itself (yours is the first time I've seen a desire to catalog cracks/etc in existing buildings).

Hi there,

We were checking Edificius and it's HBIM module - what is interesting about those cracks they are being nicely exported to IFC, meaning you can get all metadata in 3D as well. 

I think all the pathologies can be nicely organised with proper classification - I was trying to create some Graphical Overrides for it and the results were quite nice looking. It is definitely achievable "by hand".
