New Vectorworks Book by Kazushi Fukuda Available

Nemetschek Vectorworks has announced a brand new training book for Japanese language Vectorworks users. The book title is “Vectorworks Architect, BIM Basic Master for Residential Design,” and is written by Kazushi Fukuda, and published by SHUWA SYSTEM CO., LTD.

The new book offers an introduction to BIM and modeling in Vectorworks Architect software and provides an easy-to-understand, practical explanation of the building information modeling process. It does this by taking the reader through a case study of a two-story wooden house, the most popular style of Japanese residence, and demonstrates the efficiency and convenience of a BIM workflow.
