How to Create 3D Topographic Contour Lines from Meshes in Archicad

In this short ‪@Archicad‬ tutorial learn how to generate automatic topographic contour lines from your site mesh, so you can have a clean 2d representation and 3d topo polylines!

About CONTRABIM:
Our mission is to help Architects, Engineers and Builders navigate the complexities of designing and building with 3D Virtual Models in Archicad BIM Software, through thoughtfully produced templates and training programs to help them implement a strategic workflow, enabling them to deliver projects faster, win more work, reduce waste and increase profits.
