cadwork is a software suite that includes IFC-based virtual design and construction software tools developed by cadwork informatik AG. This suite of tools provides a solution for 3D wood manufacturing (Computer-aided manufacturing, CAM) and a solution for Building Information Modeling that includes project planning and control functions of 3D quantity takeoff, 4D scheduling, 5D pricing, and 6D execution.
The primary application is in light frame woods and heavy timber construction: The Architectural design, structural engineering, and construction carpentry phases are supported with novel features for glue laminated timber and stairs[1]
With a commitment to opensource ideals, cadwork viewers are free and thus providing an inclusive environment for collaboration across project stakeholders through model navigation features, such as zoom, pan, and print: the freeware version does not allow modifying a file. Three file types define the level of sophistication implemented through the model.
Do you know the advantages of using a 3D modeler? Your only limitations are the ones you impose on yourself. Whatever you imagine, you can draw it. Get off the beaten track and the formatting, cadwork is your tool and you control it.
Choose the tool that will accompany you regardless of the system your client picks, whether it already exists or you have invented it.
Parametric, semi-automatic, or in manual mode, choose your way, and in any case, everything is changeable.
The professional package of the software allows you to do everything without any geometric or assembly constraints. Alongside this, the wall module (included) allows you to frame quickly according to standards.
The Element and the Cadwork Detail Generator module perform the automatic and complete layout of timber-framed wall systems or related areas (log, post-beams, etc.). The number of layers per wall is unlimited (structure, bracing, lathing, etc.).
The result of the layout is a 3D construction allowing to quickly get the quantity takeoffs (volumes, surfaces, prices materials) as well as an automatic export of shop drawings for all panels, with bill of material and automatic dimensions.
Food4Rhino is McNeel's community service for plug-ins. Users can find the latest Rhino plug-ins, Grasshopper add-ons, scripts and much more. Moreover, they can contact developers and share their applications.
Grasshopper is a graphical algorithm editor that integrates with Rhino3D modeling tools. You use Grasshopper to design algorithms that then automate tasks in Rhino3D.Grasshopper's visual "plug-and-play" style gives designers the ability to combine creative problem solving with novel control systems through the use of a fluid graphical interface.
A component needs data to perform its actions, and it usually produces a result. For this reason, most components have a set of nested parameters called inputs and outputs, respectively. The input parameters are on the left side, and the output parameters are on the right side.
The components are divided into four sections.
The Attributes section contains components for handling attributes.
In the Select section you will find all components for selecting cadwork elements.
In the Create Elements section you can find the components for creating cadwork elements.
The last section Architecture contains components for creating architectural elements.

Digitization in the construction industry is gaining more and more momentum. The Building Information Modeling (BIM) method serves as an entry point. The transparent process with a high quality of object-describing information and quality gates forms the basis for digital innovations. In addition to technical aspects, the method calls for a cultural change in the construction industry. Project participants manage transparent information flows and deliver targeted data at the defined time in the required quality. BIM leads to transparency in communication and collaboration. It is foreseeable that in a few years, as with the introduction of CAD in the last millennium, the entire execution process over the life cycle will adapt so that the BIM method will take on a central role.
The advantages of the BIM method should be fully exploited not only technically, but also structurally. Therefore, the use of the openBIM method is recommended in all projects. In terms of implementation and collaboration, the following advantages arise:Software independence and freedom of choice in the application of all project participants; therefore, no competitive disadvantage due to stipulations on application usage, long-term usability of model data (sustainability through ISO certification of IFC and IDM) and Autarky of software-specific model information (transparency).The development stages of BIM provide a clear classification in this respect.
openBIM extends the benefits of BIM (Building Information Modeling) by improving the accessibility, usability, management and sustainability of digital data in the construction industry. At its core, openBIM is a collaborative process that is vendor neutral. openBIM processes can be defined as shareable project information that supports seamless collaboration for all project stakeholders. openBIM facilitates interoperability to benefit projects and assets throughout their lifecycle.
openBIM empowers stakeholders to develop new ways of working by transforming traditional peer-to-peer work processes. By breaking down data silos, openBIM can significantly improve project delivery and asset performance. Companies that adopt an openBIM approach develop cross-party collaboration, improved communication and industry-standard sharing methods. This leads to better project outcomes, greater predictability, improved performance, and increased safety with reduced risk.Throughout the lifecycle of a facility, openBIM helps connect people, processes, and data to achieve facility delivery, operations, and maintenance goals. openBIM and seamless digital workflows make critical project information accessible to all stakeholders in a timely manner to support decision making at various stages of the project - from design to handover to rehabilitation and even demolition. openBIM eliminates the traditional problem of BIM data typically being constrained by proprietary vendor data formats, by discipline, or by phase of a project.
By adhering to international standards and workflows, openBIM expands the breadth and depth of BIM use by creating a common direction and language. Technical applications developed for openBIM improve data management and eliminate disjointed workflows. Independent quality benchmarks ensure reliable open data exchange.openBIM allows digital workflows based on vendor-neutral formats such as IFC, BCF, etc.
openBIM enables an accessible digital twin, which is the central basis for a long-term data strategy for built assets. This ensures better sustainability of projects and more efficient management of the built environment.
The LOG and LOI definitions are to be made individually and independently. It should be noted that the LOD definition is not the sum of LOG and LOI, thus cannot be LOD = LOI + LOG. LOI and LOG definitions are to be defined independently of each other, but project-specifically with regard to goals and corresponding applications or the information required for this by the parties involved.
In general, an MVD, or "Model View Definition", is a selection of entities from the entire IFC schema to describe a particular use or workflow. MVDs can be as extensive as almost the entire schema (e.g., for archiving a project) or as specific as a few object types and associated data (e.g., for pricing a curtain wall system).
IFC is integrated in all common BIM applications. Software certification by buildingSMART international ensures consistently high transmission quality.All functional elements are linked to floors and are thus also associated with a building. In addition to alphanumeric (attributes, parameters and characteristics) and geometric information, an IFC file also contains object relationships.The IFC specification uses three structures: location structure, functional structure and material structure.The location structure defines the spatial structure of a building in IFC. This declares building sites, structures located on them, floors located in them, and the rooms present in a floor.Buildings are mapped within the functional structure by breaking them down into individual functional element classes: e.g. walls, ceilings, columns, doors or windows. Each element (element instance) is assigned a unique identifier (GUID).
Each functional element class is optimized for the mapping of its functional domain. For this purpose, it carries a standardized base set of characteristics to describe relevant properties (parameters) as well as their typical geometry (attributes). The characteristics are organized into groups (property sets). Each element class carries a typical pset that carries the most essential features. This pset is designated with the suffix "Common" e.g. Pset_WallCommon or Pset_DoorCommon.All functional elements are linked to floors and are thus also associated with a building. In addition to alphanumeric (attributes, parameters and characteristics) and geometric information, an IFC file also contains object relationships.In addition to the location structure and the functional structure, there is also a material structure in the IFC data structure for declaring material-related properties.
