accessArchitecture community
An opportunity for architects to network with each other, promote their work and obtain free access to powerful cost-estimating software and project-lead data.
Register for accessArchitecture
The concept is simple: accessArchitecture is an open exchange of information and ideas between the architectural, engineering and construction communities.
In exchange for sharing project information, architects can promote their work, access to a major source of project leads, obtain free use of powerful cost estimating software, receive a gift subscription to the unparalleled global architecture magazine, access the most graphically-rich and robust building information modeling library, earn credits towards online bookstore purchases – while RCD gives back: to the firm, to the leading professional association, and to the next generation.
By submitting this form, you and your firm agree to provide Reed Construction Data with information on your projects, to make available the plans and specifications, particularly in electronic format and at little or no costs whenever possible.
The resources RCD extends to firms does change, as more free tools are added to the offering. Check with your RCD team contact to discuss the accessArchitecture toolkit contents, and what is in it for your firm.
