Wall Element Design

You can use this tool to define the design mode, connections, divisions, reinforcement, and fixtures of precast walls. You can use this function to create concrete walls, double walls, sandwich walls, thermal walls, composite sheeting and brick walls.

IFC Assistant

This function helps you prepare heterogeneous 3D data of different types so that you can then use the data to design new precast elements. This new tool is intended for data you import via the IFC interface.

However, you can also use Allplan to process any 3D elements modeled in, such as user-defined architectural elements, multilayer architectural walls, instances of smart symbols and PythonParts.

Design

You can use this tool to design architectural walls. In other words, architectural walls are divided into precast walls. Various criteria, such as maximum length and maximum weight apply to this process.

Crane Location

You can use this tool to define one or more crane locations. Do this before you use the Design tool. The program includes the crane parameters when calculating the elements.

Assembly Parts

You can use this tool to place cast-in nuts and lifting bolts in a precast wall.

Structural Starter Bars

You can use this tool to create and place reinforcement cages that are used as structural starter bars. The reinforcement cages are installed on site into the placed precast walls, turning the precast elements in a double wall into a rigid, structurally-capable component.

Status Admin

You can use this tool to assign or change statuses and locking states independently of the automatic features. In addition, you can configure the program to highlight the current status and locking state.

Modify Wall in View

You can use this function to modify wall elements created using Design (iWall).

MEP Wizard

You can use this wizard to create fixtures and openings (the latter using negative shaped fixtures) based on smart symbols, architectural elements and 3D solids. The smart symbols do not necessarily need to originate from an import. They can instead also be created directly in Allplan.

individual fixtures

You can use this function to split wall designs created using Design (iWall) into individual elements that are independent of each other, which can then be individually edited manually from the other elements in the original design.

Modify Design

You can use this tool to modify wall design. You can use the same tools as for creating a precast wall.

Modify Recesses

You can use this tool to modify wall recesses as follows:
You can create longitudinal bars, cross bars, lattice girders or secondary bars that pass through recesses, modify the bar projections and bending shapes at the recess edges or define reinforcement for trimming for attached reinforcement.

Modify Parameters, Basic Reinforcement

You can use this tool to modify the parameters and reinforcement of individual wall elements. You can also delete individual wall elements.

Modify, Label Reinforcement

You can use this tool to modify basic or secondary reinforcement. Reinforcement can also be labeled later with this tool.

Model Precast Elements

You can use this tool to modify the geometry of precast elements.

Model Connections

You can use this tool to model connections between precast elements. The solids modeled can be within several precast elements.

Transfer Elements

You can use this tool to transfer fixtures and reinforcement with labels to (partly) identical precast elements. You can transfer the selected elements from the source precast element to one or more destination precast elements at the same time.

Modify Mark Number

You can use this function to modify the mark numbers, precast IDs and additional IDs of wall elements.

Label Precast Elements

You can use this tool to label precast elements you created without labels or whose original labels have been deleted.

Plan Display - Wall

You can use this tool to show or hide elements of basic reinforcement. You can also place a perspective view of the wall elements in the floor plan.

Collision Check

You can use this tool to check whether selected elements collide. As a result, the program marks the colliding elements.
