Let’s walk through a practical example to showcase the power of .
: Beyond standard shapes, the tool allows for the definition of complex, free-form reinforcement bars using "Polygon" editing mode for non-rectangular sections.
The tool checks and corrects rebar ID numbering to ensure accuracy in schedules.
Unlike manual reinforcement methods, Eptar Reinforcement provides automated solutions for placing rebar in complex concrete elements like beams, columns, slabs, and walls. It focuses on accelerating the drafting process while ensuring compliance with international standards, facilitating a smoother transition from design to construction. Key Features of Eptar Reinforcement for Archicad 26
Archicad 26 introduced several performance improvements and UI tweaks. Eptar leverages these updates to ensure a smoother user experience.
Eptar Reinforcement is a powerful add-on for ArchiCAD, a popular Building Information Modeling (BIM) software used by architects, engineers, and builders. With the release of ArchiCAD 26, Eptar Reinforcement has been updated to provide even more advanced features and functionality for designing and detailing reinforced concrete structures.
