Product catalog summary

Overview: Bentley Architecture is a comprehensive solution for architectural design and documentation, offering an intuitive user interface and powerful tools. It supports architects throughout the design, documentation, and construction process with flexibility to leverage or customize international and regional industry standards.

Key Features:

  • Building Information Modeling (BIM): Enables automated drawing and reporting, fully coordinated and customizable. Drawings and reports like material take-offs and schedules are automatically generated.
  • 2D/3D Workflow: Users can work in either 2D or 3D, with automatic linking between 3D models and 2D drawings.
  • Automated Drawing Production: Drawings are generated from the model using common or customized representations, ensuring full coordination.
  • Integrated Reporting: Provides material quantity takeoffs, member counts, and volume analysis for accurate costing and scheduling.
  • Integrated Visualization: Includes rendering, animation, lighting, and camera controls for effective design evaluation and presentation.
  • Collaboration: Supports coordination across LAN, WAN, VPN, or the Internet, with access management and document publishing capabilities.

Advanced Capabilities:

  • Smart Spaces: Automatic coordination with walls and annotation for facility planning.
  • Architectural Relationships: Automatically infers standard relationships between elements.
  • Automated Specification Coordination: Generates outline specifications and links to text-based information.
  • Feature-based Solid Modeling: Allows easy creation and modification of shapes.
  • Terrain Modeling: Tools for quick terrain generation and updates.
  • Multiple Display Modes: Supports various views like plan drawing, isometric model, and perspectives.
  • International and Custom Standards Support: Manages project or corporate-level standards with support for US and other national CAD standards.
  • Integration with Facility Management and Building Engineering Solutions: Coordinates spaces and components with facility management activities and supports building engineering solutions.
  • 3D Output: Supports STL for 3D printing and 3D Web formats like VRML.
  • Interference Analysis Integration: Identifies spatial interferences using Bentley Interference Manager.
  • 4D Design: Integrates model with construction schedules and analyzes construction or occupancy issues over time.

System Requirements:

  • Software: MicroStation v8.1 or higher.
  • Processor: Intel Pentium-based or AMD Athlon-based PC.
  • Operating System: Microsoft Windows XP, 95/98/2000, NT 4.
  • Memory: 128MB RAM.
  • Disk Space: 200MB minimum free disk space.
  • Input Device: Mouse or digitizing tablet.

Catalog excerpts

Bentley Architecture-1

An intuitive user interface, powerful tools and libraries of standard components support architectsthroughout the design, documentation and construction process. The flexibility of Bentley > ή Architectureallows you to leverage many international and regional industry standards, or easily customize andexpand these standards to meet the needs of your practice. Intelligent, building information modeling enables automated drawing and reporting that is fully coordinated and customizable to suit your needs. Drawings are automatically generated using industry-standard drawing conventions. Reports such as material take-offs, program analysis, schedules and outline specifications can also be automatically generated to complement your drawings. With sophisticated rendering and animation capabilities built right in, you have all the tools needed to fully design, document and present your project. > 2D/3D choiceWork in 2D. The building information model can be created and manipulated using either a 2D or 3D interface and workflow. You can even have the 3D model and 2D drawings automatically linked and work in both. > 2D/3D choiceחWork in 3D. From the model, drawings can be automatically generated using either common or customized representations. All drawings are fully coordinated with each other and the 3D model. > Material quantity takeoffs, member counts, volume analysis and more are all available to quickly and accurately report on the model for costing, scheduling or other design and documentation. > With powerful rendering, animation, lighting and camera controls, you can easily and effectively evaluate your design, communicate design intent with the project team and produce convincing presentations. > Integrated Visualizationrendering, animation, VR and analysis. Coordinate your work with the entire project team. Designers, consultants and contractors can all work together across a LAN, WAN, VPN or through the Internet. Manage access to source project informa- tion, and publish appropriate presentations or documents for use by others using Bentleyגs powerfulcollaboration server products. > Visit us on the Web for more information about Bentley solutions and services. www .bentley .com >
