Because you get 100% accurate BIM data. However, it takes time. For renovation projects, this is often safer than an automated converter which might misplace a wall by 1mm.
: You can simply drag a DWG file onto an ArchiCAD floor plan. It will import as a "Drawing" element that can be exploded into editable lines and fills.
Once open, go to and choose Archicad Solo Project (*.pln) . Method 2: Merging the DWG (Best for combining files)
