Quantities tool
CI Quantities is a solution for improving the process of calculating, scheduling, and exporting a bill of quantities from a live Archicad project model.
You can assign costs and quantities to your Archicad Elements, or automatically assign them using smart Recipes, and then generate Bills of Quantity at any time as you go, choosing to view the Bill Schedule in Archicad or export it to use in third-party tools.
Coverings Tool
Add realism to your Archicad model by applying 3D modelled skins to walls, slabs, columns and roofs in both 2D and 3D views.
This tool will add depth and detail to the surfaces of your Archicad projects. The surfaces are represented in your 2D, 3D, section and elevation views and they even retain their correct proportions when object sizes are changed.
The surfaces created maintain an automatic relationship to the primary elements, and whenever it is updated or changed, the attached 3D modelled objects update correspondingly.
Structural Options
Structure and Sizes
Easily create complex window and door layouts within seconds.
Choose from a wide variety of window contour shapes, and modify the shape without having to redesign the whole window.
Sashes and Door Leafs
Pick from a wide variety of sash glazing methods or door leafs, and define sizes according your unique ideas and requirements.
Annotation tool
The Ci Annotate tool lets you take control of your text case in Archicad – you can change all text, or just the selected text to all-caps, lowercase, sentence case, or heading case. This removes the need to retype everything.
You can also add exceptions to your text case rules, and even apply the changes to text inside of objects.
Keynotes Tool
End the tedium and potential errors of annotating your Archicad drawings by using Ci Keynotes.
Keynotes allows you to annotate your drawings quickly and simply with greater accuracy by providing a framework to create a database of notes (or to transfer an existing database) so that notes automatically attach to elements based on their attributes.
You can place a full note without any reference directly on a drawing, or place a reference key on the drawing and then Keynotes compiles a schedule of these notes.
Stairs Tool
Design stairs with flexibility and freedom, straight onto your model.
With Ci Stairs, you have access to a range of individual components that allow for highly flexible stair configurations for both residential and commercial designs.
Railings can be associated with stairs, slabs or even stand-alone, so that stairs can easily wind at varied widths and heights and open on to landings. Stair assemblies can be edited, labelled and output as if they were a single object.
Cabinets Tool
Use just one highly-configurable object to model all your cabinetry, instead of having to use separate objects for each different cabinet type and shape.
Using the new library you can easily model flat and curved cupboard doors and drawer fronts. Mix and match from a generous palette of editable panel styles and handle types to create that unique look.

Manipulate, edit and form your own objects in 3D.
Objective allows you to:
- Quickly and easily Rotate objects in 3D without any programming
- Split 2D and 3D Elements while still preserving the elements’ underlying options and parameters
- Create Profiles to retain complete control over the shape at every segment. The profiles can also be easily updated after creation
- Align elements in section, elevation, or 3D
- Automatically set the Display Order of an element on the elevation
- Bend objects and profiles to follow a 3D curve
Extrusions
Using this tool, you’ll be able to easily extrude profile sections along a given path in free space. Create custom building components, shape and trim scotias, furniture moldings and more.
A collection of preset profiles are provided which include a range of common steel sections. Plus, you can also quickly create additional custom profiles to suit your own needs.
Slab Edges
With this tool your slabs can have rebates, upstands, and foundations.
Use them to create great-looking, accurately detailed edge shapes for cabinet counters without having to use custom-built objects.
Easy to use – just click on the edge of your slab to place. Don’t want the edge anymore? Select the edge and delete it, and your slab is back to the way it was.
“Thanks for the Ci Tools. The improvements they make to ARCHICAD is staggering.”
– D Ratcliffe
Objective Tool
Ci Objective has been designed to greatly increase your ability to model in 3D in Archicad, in a way which feels like a natural part of the environment.
The Objective tool now combines the functionality of the Ci Extrusions and Slab Edges tools. This makes it an incredibly powerful tool that gives you everything you need to bend, split, rotate, align and modify elements in your Archicad Model.
Intuitive, smart electrical symbols and schedules.
Making Circuits
Making circuits is simple too – just select all the elements you want to wire up, and then with the click of one button, the Electrical Tool automatically draws in the wiring for you. When you move elements that have wiring attached, the wiring will follow along, so there’s no need to clean up your wiring as you change your Electrical Layout.
Create Electrical Schedules
You don’t have to learn a new technique in order to create your Electrical Schedules – simply use ARCHICAD’s built-in Scheduler. It will automatically display all the relevant electrical items only once, along with its description and manufacturer details.
All items in your Electrical Schedule are listed separately by library part name and ID. You can also add descriptions and codes, set placement heights, and add other useful information to each item.
Included with this Tool are a set of Templates for Electrical Schedules that you can import and modify to suit you.
From here you can also create an Electrical Legend.
“Once installed and loaded, [it] makes life pretty simple… Just select all the elements you want to wire up, and then with the click of one button, Cadimage Electrical automatically draws in the wiring for you.”

Framewright Tool
The Ci Framewright tool is specifically designed to be used to help design Oak Frame houses, primarily in the UK. It is not a general purpose framing solution. Designing an oak frame construction in a CAD program can be particularly difficult given that many of the components will have irregular shapes that cannot be described parametrically. However, by adding FrameWright to Archicad you can convert any user-defined shape into a framing object.
Design stairs with flexibility and freedom, straight onto your model.
With Ci Stairs, you have access to a range of individual components that allow for highly flexible stair configurations for both residential and commercial designs.
Railings can be associated with stairs, slabs or even stand-alone, so that stairs can easily wind at varied widths and heights and open on to landings. Stair assemblies can be edited, labelled and output as if they were a single object.
