Another interesting application of FreeCAD in housing development, shown in the FreeCAD's forum by F_Rosa. The workflow Involves topography of terrain, apartments blocks placement, public areas design

I also thought I'd take the opportunity to ask if anyone has a good idea about where to start if I would like to switch to opensource software eventually. I've started a bit with Freecad but haven't h

The solid model I save as IFC and that model works well in all IFC viewers that I have tried . BIMvision, Solibri, Trimle connect. It also opens in Freecad but looks very strange. In BlenderBIM it doe

* You have a love/hate relationship with Revit, but would never go back to CAD again! In fact, because you love technology so much, you've dabbled in open source tools like Blender and FreeCAD. Or at

A cross post of an interesting thread in the FreeCAD forum by F_Rosa, about FreeCAD and BIM workflow, with case as example to evaluate FC current status. I will add it to our workflow directory.

mmmm. Sorry, I think that is not correct. Are you saying that windows version of Blender, windows version of FreeCAD, windows version of whatever, are not free software as defined by https://www.gnu.o

Look forward to support to installation on FreeCAD :)

Blender foundation already did a lot for everyone developing a spectacular software by open and free. This technological infrastructure makes BlenderBIM and other addons possible. Now it is the turn

G'day! There is a variety of free software to be studied (and already studied) within academia, including IfcOpenShell, FreeCAD, Topologic, EnergyPlus, Radiance, OpenFOAM, and the BlenderBIM Add-on. W

Also ping @yorik - FreeCAD Gitter bot is also currently forwarding to Freenode, which may need to be reconsidered.

I'm afraid "OSArch Initiative" might sound as though FreeCAD was "initiated by OSArch" which is not true. "OSArch Supporter" or "Part of

It's been 10 minutes and I've been thinking. A BlenderBIM + FreeCAD + OSArch logo like @bitacovir seems to suggest would of course be fine for that project group to use. I'm just in the corner fightin

Les comparto una entrada de blog, donde muestro las variantes para documentar un proyecto en FreeCAD. Luego de varias pruebas, he seleccionado una de ellas y me puse a crear los planos.

What I see is a partnership between FreeCAD ArchBIM WB + BenderBIM Addon + OSArch. If you want to show you are part of this partnership or you support these initiatives as Open Source AEC vanguard, ma

* So, FreeCAD Logo maybe be 'owned' by an organisation (not 'officially' set up yet right?) which govern the development of FreeCAD software, the forum etc.

@Moult @bitacovir Any idea someone has prepare something similar for OSArch, BlenderBIM, FreeCAD etc. ?

There is no OS tool that offers that and Blender or FreeCAD have a solid basis to be developed into that (via plugins in Blender's case, probably). Each has it's advantages and disadvantages. I think

Correct. Ton has explicitly said this. He support workflows that coordinate with FreeCAD and other CAD systems.

I think my proposal for FreeCAD BIM WB can help you do manage your Spaces
