MicroStation GenerativeCompone

GenerativeComponents is an associative parametric modeling system used by architects and engineers to automate design processes and accelerate design iterations.


As an Innovation by MicroStation, GenerativeComponents extends proven technologies and delivers significant advantage to users as they rapidly explore a broad range of design alternatives.

With a hybrid approach, designers who use GenerativeComponents can model geometry, capture relationships, and generate forms using scripts and/or direct manipulation for unrivalled creative flexibility.

This combination of accelerated iteration, flexible modeling, and automated process, means that a GenerativeComponents design can be highly efficient, benefiting from a combination of intuition and logic.

A free trial of GenerativeComponents is available for a limited time.

See informative and inspiring presentations on design and methodology using GenerativeComponents that were delivered during the SmartGeometry 2007 Winter Conference.

Now available through the Bentley Institute: OnDemand eLearning for GenerativeComponents.
