ArCADia-START is a BIM and simple CAD program for the construction industry, fully functional and intuitive and inexpensive. You can create construction documentation, sketches, view models in 3D and, of course, save files in DWG format. The package also includes specialized industry modules for the creation of various types of installations in the building.

ArCADia-START allows you to draw floor plans on the plane, for which you can use tools such as multilayer walls, windows, doors and shapes to draw details. The building materials catalogue has been prepared in accordance with EN 6946 and EN 12524. For walls and ceilings, the heat transfer coefficient is automatically calculated.

The three-dimensional building block for viewing is generated automatically and can be viewed as a whole or shown as a cross-section in the program window. The enclosed library of 3D objects allows you to pre-arrange the interior of the designed building. It is also possible to import geodetic base in the form of raster graphics.

The CAD program is accompanied by industry modules for the design of installations, ceilings and specialist constructions. They are: ArCADIA-ARCHITECTURE 8.0, ArCADIA-EXACTIVE 1.0, ArCADIA-INSTALLATIONS ELECTRICAL 2.0, ArCADIA-INSTALLATIONS PLUS 2.0, ArCADIA-INSTALLATIONS GAZOWE 2.0, ArCADIA-INSTALLATIONS OF GAS ONE 1.7, ArCADIA-INSTALLATIONS 1.0, ArCADIA-INSTALLATIONS 2.0, ArCADIA-INSTALLATIONS 2.0, ArCADIA-INSTALLATIONS 2.0, ArCADIA-INVERYZATOR 1.1, ArCADIA-IFC 1.0, ArCADIA-FELBET CHIPS 1.0, ArCADIA-Electric CHIECIES 2.0, ArCADIA-CANALISATION CHIECIES 1.3, ArCADIA-TELECIUMUNICIES 2.2, ArCADIA-TELECIUMUNICATIONAL CHIECIES MINI 2.Each module has a built-in library of elements that are used by it.

While designing, you can modify and save your own elements, and choose whether they are available only for one project or globally. ArCADia-START can function as a stand-alone CAD program or as an overlay for such programs as AutoCAD 2013-2015 or ArCADia 10, in both cases constituting an indispensable base for the functioning of industry modules. ArCADia can read and save files in DWG format from 2.5 to 2007, and with DWG 2013 files can work with the included converter.

Statements can be exported in RTF format, lists as CSV and projects as XML. Additional changes to the lists can be made with the ArCADia-TEXT editor, which can save RTF, DOC, DOCX, TXT and PDF files. Demo version of ArCADia-START software runs for 29 days, but many modules are limited in demo mode.
