Instead of drawing lines and 2D fills to represent steel rebars, users manipulate intelligent, parametric 3D elements. These elements accurately calculate lengths, bend angles, and overlap distributions automatically. Key Features in Archicad 26
Click on a section of placed rebars to instantly generate a custom cutting list table directly on the floor plan or exportable to external formats. Step-by-Step: Reinforcing a Structure in Archicad 26 Reinforcement 7 - eptar.hu
Master Reinforced Concrete Modeling with Éptár Reinforcement for Archicad 26 eptar reinforcement archicad 26
Deploying Éptár Reinforcement on Graphisoft Archicad 26 grants access to several native optimizations and advanced capabilities:
If a wall has window or door openings, the add-on recognizes them, cuts the mesh where necessary, and allows for additional diagonal edge reinforcement placement. Instead of drawing lines and 2D fills to
Define structural core parameters on slabs. The tool handles custom-shaped floor plates and calculates edge distributions perfectly.
Archicad 26 introduced optimized layer organizations. The add-on automatically groups all reinforcement-related layers into a dedicated "Reinforcement" folder rather than scattering them across the system. Archicad 26 introduced optimized layer organizations
The dedicated rf_beam and rf_column objects allow users to automatically insert stirrups and main bars into rectangular or complex profiles with simple inputs.
Structural engineering and architectural design require seamless collaboration. Historically, detailing reinforced concrete within an architectural Building Information Modeling (BIM) environment has been challenging. Éptár Reinforcement bridges this gap for professionals using Graphisoft Archicad . This specialized add-on empowers architects and civil engineers to define, model, and document complex concrete structures directly inside the native architectural environment.
