MicroStation TriForma Integrated Building Design and Drawing Production
MicroStation TriForma is easy-to-use, high-performance software for architectural modeling and drawing production. It represents a dramatic improvement over the traditional CAD approach to building design and drawing production by focusing on the creation of a 3D model that embodies the full scope of your design the Single Building Model. MicroStation TriFormas Single Building Model approach embraces the architectural workflow. It includes true 3D solid modeling optimized for architectural design, with easy-to-use modeling tools that allow you to create and visualize your design. As the design moves through production, all of your 2D drawings and reports are automatically generated from the Single Building Model. Because it fits so smoothly into your workflow, MicroStation TriForma allows you to identify your best design, communicate it effectively and move it through production without delay.

mations. You can assign patterns and textures to your model to heighten realism. Material definitions provide additional color, texture, transparency and finish, while multiple light sources, including ambient lighting, solar lighting and spotlights, provide realistic shade and shadows. And you can easily display and print
the underlying graphics, while changes to the drawings between sessions are automatically flagged.

specifications and calculate the cost of the entire project. And because these reports are linked, any changes to your original model will be automatically reflected in the attached reports. This effectively eliminates the human error that normally causes inconsistencies between your design and its corresponding reports. MicroStation TriForma reporting capabilities are powerful and quick. The detailed bills of materials report, for example, automatically gives you the quantity and cost of every item in your model. MicroStation TriFormas what-if? approach provides a very powerful budget control system. You can, for example, analyze the cost implications of selecting alternate materials without having to modify the model. Flexible layout options ensure that your reports contain exactly the information you need and are organized to your specifications. And you can easily import the reports generated with MicroStation TriForma into your spreadsheet or database management software for further refinement and analysis.
The intuitive interface lets you work in plan, elevation and even perspective viewssimultaneously.
tings and view parameters in the middle of a command sequence without restarting a command. QuickVision technology even allows you to work in a fully rendered view. MicroStation TriForma expands on the already comprehensive functionality of MicroStation by focusing on the specific demands of architecture and building design. MicroStation TriForma is optimized to take advantage of the innovative drawing tools provided in MicroStation 95 and MicroStation PowerDraft. MicroStations AccuDraw , for example, is the definition of easy 3D drawing input, combining the ease and intuitiveness of sketching using a mouse with the speed and accuracy of keyboard input. Only MicroStation TriForma is backed by all the power and functionality of MicroStation.
MicroStation TriForma provides specialized tools optimized for architectural design and drawing production.
Features
Unrivaled ease of use MicroStation TriForma is optimized to take advantage of the advanced user interface features available in MicroStation 95 and MicroStation PowerDraft. This includes support for AccuDraw, SmartLine, Tool Tip help, and dockable tool boxes. MicroStation TriForma has a consistent, easy-to-learn look and feel on all platforms. The new QuickVision technology in MicroStation 95 even allows you to work in a fully rendered view. Natural architectural workflow MicroStation TriForma embraces your workflow. It allows you to design with conceptual modeling tools. All the building information is stored in a 3D model. As the design progresses and detail is added, your model is refined and enhanced. As your design moves through production, all of the 2D drawings and reports including cost estimates, bills of materials and specifications are generated from this single, unambiguous model. Powerful 3D modeling MicroStation TriForma provides easy-to-use modeling tools that allow you to quickly sculpt, modify, section and visualize conceptual designs. You can model complex projects working among plan, elevation, isometric and perspective views. Graphical parametric stair and window tools let you easily design and manipulate unique building elements of various types and configurations.
