BEST LECTURE / TUTORIAL IVE SEEN ON ARCHICAD - THANX... IVE BEEN STRUGGLING 2 GET GOOD CONENT FOR CONTEX IN MY OWN DRAWINGS THIS HELP

[vaihamisamumbuu]

This type of lectures you giving for free is worth millions dollars, great work. COULD YOU ALSO PLEASE INCREASE THE PIXEL OF THE VIDEO IT IS VERY LOW AND WE ARE MISSING OUT VALUABLE CONTENTS VISUALLY. THANKS

[yanasokur]

Thank you! Filally I found Map Mpdeler in my AC24!

[Rojarquitectura]

I wonder what will happen with all these works and tutorials with the new AC27 version?

[ramonlemos]

two things I miss in archicad: temporary quotas, that is, automatic measurement of each structure; and multiple perspectives on a single screen that revit has. archicad should incorporate these features to be much more powerful. everyone asks for changes like that. and the part dp mep and the calculations need to be enriched too. please, make archicad better.. Fix all bugs too!

[generalengineerph]

Brand New to MEP BIM and this video helped me alot.thanks man

[ogollabenicko]

Thank you teacher, you made me learn something that I didn't know before, thank you very much, for me to be your student how much am I supposed to paid, because I want to learn M.e.p in American standard I'm in Africa Kenya, is it possible for me to learn it??

[monarchmoses]

Is this Mep tools pre installed with archicad 24 and 25?

[softwarekonstruksi]

what about the length of the pipe whether the volume can be calculated

[miyahollands]

So, if you have an existing model, with MEP elements, from the the add-on, included. Does Archicad 24 recognise these elements as MEP elements, within the new library?

[JulianTheOwl]

WTF. THIS IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN REVIT. WTFFFF

[enggarrizkindo]

bruh how to summon schedule length for each pipe ? i need help here, im usic AC 25

[garysantos]

Basically, what you’re saying is I have to redraw all my and Structural Engineers drawings?

[gaetano]

MEP routing tool symbol to click on is not shown on the top toolbar of my Archicad 27 as shown on this video. Is there another way to access this tool dialogue box? Also, when I click on a pipe hot spot there is not option to stretch the pipe.

[yassineazizou]

where we can find the overlap between the structure and the false ceiling with this mep exactly ??

[samsam]

Sir, may I ask. how do i create a basic MEP profile but there is also a architectural basic profile in one window. Like in 3:54 or contraBIM profile. :)

[erickmanangan]

Hi John. Thanks for this video. I am using verison 20. may i know how can i use this new feature?

[edsonlopesfulano]

Great work, for how long will the course be available online?

[trbopwr]

Create a riser diagram with that, is it possible?

[achuth]

Is it better than Revit?
Can we do design calculation?
