what is VA? advantages tools streamlines workflow + improves design process efficiency within one production environment allows to easily create / edit custom architectural objects makes design + documentation process faster and easier intuitive, short learning curve and affordable price a b c

advantages b
7
full integration in Rhino’s interface: Rhino-like menu, toolbars and command’s behaviour advantages VARQ uses the same view windows system, adding a graphic scale and elevation references
8
plan view: Rhino’s Top view is replaced by VARQ’s plan view (Floor) the plan view shows a 2D representation of the objects advantages
9
architectural parametrical objects: define and edit object properties at any time easier and faster process advantages
10
architectural tools: generate 2D documentation and quantify information advantages

13
architectural parametrical objects: easy to create and edit at any time objects 1 c
14
intersections are automatically solved walls can be edited from their properties dialogs -by changing their parameters - or manually -by dragging their control points- tools wall
15
shape defined by a profile: library with standard parametric profiles + option to create a custom profile tools column
16
doors and windows are associated to the walls : after moving, editing or deleting them, the wall hole is automatically updated tools door | window shape defined by a profile: library with basic parametric profiles + option to create a custom profile
17
custom door/window styles created from blocks tools door | window custom opening 3D block 2D block profile +=
18
tools stair the riser value is automatically calculated
19
slab/roof’s shape is defined by the projection of any closed and planar curve. tools slab | roof
20
floating dialogs that appear during the insertion of an object style list of the inserted object information to specify in the moment of inserting an object (independently from its style properties) preview of the inserted object tools insert dialog
21
tools to define and edit the parameters of an object style style manager dialog
22
materials can be assigned to each component of every VARQ object style by editing its attributes tools style manager dialog
23
you can use any render engine supported by Rhino tools style manager dialog
24
object properties can also be edited from the VARQ section, integrated inside the Rhino Properties dialog tools properties dialog VARQ Properties dialog of a selected wall
25
tools create / edit tools 2 c tools to create / edit walls in a more flexible way thanks to their NURB-based technology
26
wall from curve: create a wall following the trace of any planar curve the path and height of the wall can be manually modified tools wall trace flexibility
27
associative extension of the wall’s upper face to a surface automatical update of walls after modifying the surface tools wall extension
28
wall from solid: to turn any Rhino-solid into a VARQ wall the path and height of the wall can be manually modified tools wall shape flexibility 12 3 4
29
add | subtract extract solid to/from wall tools boolean operations 123 boolean operation -using solids- to modify walls without losing their parametrical qualities
30
boolean operation -using closed and planar curves- to modify slabs and roofs without losing their parametrical qualities add | subtract closed planar curve to/from slab tools boolean operations 12 3 4
31
2d documentation + quantification of the drawing’s information tools documentation tools 3 c
32
detects, marks and calculates the geometry of closed spaces confined within VA walls tools area
33
tools schedule table table’s information is linked to the model and can be updated to adjust to changes
34
2D drawings showing the elevations of doors and windows each opening drawing is marked with a label that refers it to the model. tools opening elevations
35
2D drawing showing the section of the selected objects the section updates automatically after moving or rotating its cuttting line tools section
36
tools floor manager integrated in the Rhino Options dialog allows you to create new floors and specify the height and cutting plane elevation for each one of them
37
tools floor manager set view option can also be selected from the context menu of each viewport
38
to use in combination with other VARQ commands tools 4 c
39
custom profiles are added to the profile library they can be used for creating custom column, door and window styles. tools custom profile
40
tools properties all VisualARQ objects can be edited at any time: by modifying the style properties of a VisualARQ object, all the objects belonging to that style change.
41
by modifying the object properties, only the selected objects change, independently of the parameters that were set for the style they belong to. tools properties
42
tools style export / import VisualARQ has an export / import option, that allows you to use any object style (predefined or new) in other 3DM files.
43
option to update those changes that don’t update automatically tools update
44
VisualARQ 1.0 includes savanna 3d: A library of over 1000 detailed 3d models in 3DM format, ready to be inserted in Rhino + VisualARQ! savanna 3d library
