Construct the reinforcement of structural elements as intelligent, parametric 3D objects (not just 2D lines), which can be modified and updated at any time. You have the option to use , which intelligently place reinforcement based on the geometry of walls, columns, and beams. Alternatively, for free-form objects like complex stairs, you can place bars manually using the freeform/manual placement mode.
Reduces manual drafting errors by linking the 2D plan to the 3D model.
Implementation checklist for Archicad 27 deployment eptar reinforcement for archicad 27
The add-on automatically calculates reinforcement lengths, hook dimensions, and bending diameters based on local design codes. If an architectural wall or slab changes shape, the EPTAR reinforcement elements adapt dynamically to the new geometry. 3. Automatic Element Detection
: When you define reinforcements, Eptar automatically draws the technical 2D layout representations and constructs precise, clash-detectable 3D rebar geometry. Reduces manual drafting errors by linking the 2D
The add-on provides a comprehensive library of reinforcement objects and automated placement tools.
Beyond geometric modeling, the plugin functions as a structural data hub directly on the floor plan. These schedules filter by element
Manual scheduling is highly prone to human error. Éptár Reinforcement generates accurate, automated rebar schedules, cutting lists, and mass calculations with a single click. These schedules filter by element, story, or material grade and can be placed directly onto Archicad layouts. 5. Collision Detection Support
Using this add-on minimizes data loss from switching software, ensures accurate multi-disciplinary coordination, and automates material quantity takeoffs. Key Features of Eptar Reinforcement for Archicad 27
