Beam Generator
Create load-bearing beams along host walls, grid lines, or closed boundaries with section and offset control.
Column Generator
Drop structural columns at grid intersections, points, or wall chains with height and section control.
Footing Generator
Generate isolated, combined, and strip footings under columns and walls with size and level controls.
Skirting Generator
Add continuous skirting, dados, and trims along room perimeters with automatic corners and opening cuts.
Floor & Roof Engine
Create floor slabs and roof shells from closed boundaries with thickness, level, overhang, and slope controls.
Material Manager
Assign and manage materials across selections, components, tags, and layers with reusable presets.
Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about LizArk generation engines.
Which generation engine should I use first?
Start with Column Generator or Footing Generator if you are building the structural frame. For interiors, begin with Skirting Generator to add finishes quickly.
Can generation engines use closed room boundaries?
Yes. Beam Generator, Floor & Roof Engine, and Skirting Generator can all work from closed wall boundaries or user-drawn outlines.
How do I reuse materials across multiple projects?
Use Material Manager to save palettes as presets. You can then load a preset in any model and apply it by selection, component, tag, or layer.
