Affinity

Trelligence Affinity is a complete package of architecture software for AEC professionals such as architects, designers, builders, engineers and owner/operators. Often the professional who meets with the client/owner is not the same person who creates the detailed designs in CAD software, so Affinity is an ideal tool for the client-facing architect or designer.

Affinity includes capabilities to automate the following processes:

Architectural Project Programming

1. Enter program data in Affinity questionnaire

Project properties
Site properties
Building properties
Space Program

2. Identify key requirements

About the program
Regarding cost or space
Relational information
Track general information as text

Schematic Design

1. Define and lay out the site

Size, shape, rotation, setbacks, survey data, topology

2. Layout the building

Stories
Spaces and specific rooms
Openings and objects

Project Analysis & Validation

1. Analyze the plan

Review the program data
Evaluate the history of requirements
Report on details or overview
Create HTML or Microsoft® Excel reports
Track history of changes

2. Validate compliance with requirements

Review flagged requirements not being met
Report on requirements
Build custom reports for any constituent
Feed Program Data into Detailed Design

3. Export to CAD and other software systems

Output to DXF, CSV formats

4. Use Affinity for ArchiCAD plug-in for full CAD integration

Customize Affinity Templates to Model Your Firm’s Processes

1. Purchase a specialized building type template built by Trelligence

2. Work with your reseller to create a template unique to your firm

3. Use the Affinity Toolkit to create a template yourself

4. Dynamically add design items such as room types, openings or objects to the schematic design toolset
