Buy Autodesk Forma for Building Planning and Site Analysis

Description

Support better housing and development decisions

Planning a building project in Ireland means considering more than the proposed structure itself. Site conditions, neighbouring buildings, daylight, wind and noise can all influence an early design. For architectural practices in Dublin, Cork and Galway, testing alternatives before detailed design begins can make project discussions more productive. Autodesk Forma provides a cloud-based environment for exploring building concepts and assessing their relationship with the surrounding site.

Whether your team is examining a housing proposal, considering a commercial site or exploring an urban development opportunity, Forma helps you investigate different approaches while the design is still flexible. Work directly in your browser without installing a desktop application.

From a site idea to a design comparison

Autodesk Forma is a tool for early-stage planning and design of buildings and sites. It combines rapid design exploration with environmental analysis so architects, urban planners and developers can consider important factors before detailed design starts.

• Explore development sites: Carry out fast site studies and investigate possible building arrangements.
• Test building volumes: Create massing studies to explore different building forms and configurations.
• Compare proposals: Use live metrics to assess alternative design options as your concept develops.
• Understand sunlight: Analyse sun and shadow conditions when considering building placement and surrounding spaces.
• Review environmental factors: Investigate daylight, wind, noise and microclimate during the design process.
• Move towards detailed design: Continue your work in Revit through the available connection. Revit is optional and is not included.

For an Irish practice assessing alternative housing layouts or a development team examining a site in an established urban area, these capabilities provide a useful starting point for informed design discussions. Forma is also part of the Autodesk AEC Collection. If your organisation needs several design tools, the Collection may offer better value than buying Forma separately.
