Course Description

Why this Course?

This is a practice-based course that involves the development of an architectural floor plan for a section of a 3-bedroom apartment block. You will have a reference pack in the resources section and step-by-step tutorials that will help you work alongside the instructor to create the plan.

Right from the very first lesson, you will create a new project and follow along with the instructor as you build and add more details to your project. In the end, you will have created a comprehensive architectural floor plan, generated elevations and sections, and added those to publisher sets ready to export to either a multi-page PDF file or a BIMx hypermodel.

What is ArchiCAD 25?

ARCHICAD 25 is the latest version released by Graphisoft at the time of making this course. It is a premier BIM (Building Information Modelling) software that allows you to create intelligent building models with construction information linked to it. If you are looking into understanding 2D and 3D modelling in ArchiCAD, this course is for you.

Nzangi Muimi

Hello! I’m Nzangi Muimi, a Quantity Surveyor and Educator based in Nairobi, Kenya. It's a pleasure to meet you.

My goal here is to be able to share as much as I have learned from the projects I have worked on and the various concepts that I am continually researching and writing about. I have worked in the construction industry managing construction projects for my clients and advising them on costs and project-based financial management.

As part of my research work, I am interested in the area of construction information management, particularly building information modelling. My past articles have been featured in “The BuildPress”; a magazine by the Architectural Association of Kenya and “The Quantity Surveyor”; a journal by the Institute of Quantity Surveyors of Kenya.

I have mastered the software that I use on a day-to-day basis to accomplish tasks. These include ArchiCAD & Revit (for BIM and CAD), Microsoft Project for project scheduling, WordPress CMS for building websites and Excel for preparing cost estimates, budgets and bills of quantities. On this platform, I endeavour to share what I have learned over time in a simple easy-to-follow step-by-step approach to ensure that my students grasp every concept that I teach.

I, also, hope to share inspirations about my journey to motivate everyone here to give their best in everything they do as they build excellence with passion.

Cheers.
