Build

Place different architectural element components
of projects [like Wall, Window]
Circulation

Consist of elements the creates circulation from one level to other level
Model

Consist of reference element that can help us while placing elements
Room & Area

Helps us to define different region of the project by creating
separation
Opening

Creating an opening essentional for different service or circulation
Datum

Consists of elements which gives us basic reference of area/pacement
[Grids/Levels]
Workplane

Create a Interference for you to create any design you need or
component you want to place in particular regions

/model [Beam / Column]
Connections

Consist of connector which can connect different structural
elements in project
Foundation

Base support for structural element of any building
Reinforcement

Provide you with element essential to give load bearing capacity to
[Beam / column / foundation]
