Atelier Arch
L'atelier Architecture (ou « Arch » pour faire court) fournit un flux de travail de type BIM à FreeCAD, avec des fonctionnalités telles le support du format IFC, des entités architecturales pleinement paramétriques comme les murs, éléments structurels ou fenêtres, et la production d'une documentation 2D complète. Le module Arch dispose également de tous les outils de l'atelier Draft.
Note: La fonctionnalité BIM de FreeCAD est maintenant progressivement divisée en Arch Workbench, qui contient tous les outils BIM de base, et le BIM Workbench addon, que vous pouvez installer via le menu Outils → Addon Manager, qui ajoute une nouvelle couche d'interface au-dessus des outils Arch, dans le but de rendre le flux de travail de BIM dans FreeCAD plus convivial et intuitif.
