ACCIONA has announced that its R&D department has selected GRAPHISOFT’s ArchiCAD 13 technology-based BIM/Virtual Building™ software, as a model-based design and documentation productivity solution. ArchiCAD will facilitate the sharing of project files and increase productivity, thereby enhancing competitiveness.  

ACCIONA is a pioneer in the use of BIM methodology and management in the construction phase, enabling quick response to quantity take-offs and building solutions, resulting in greater efficiency in control and quality assurance. The budding relationship between ACCIONA and GRAPHISOFT was tested on the new León airport terminal – as builders, ACCIONA used ArchiCAD 13 to check and modify the design throughout the building process.   "This is all about an integration system that will help link all departments -- education, quality control, engineering, etc. -- allowing us to work interactively on a single project file and share our progress in real time," said Fernando Blanco, Visualization and Sub-area Coordinator 3D Modeling of ACCIONA’s R&D department.
