Eptar Reinforcement For Archicad 26 Fixed
Streamlining Structural Design: Eptar Reinforcement for Archicad 26
Automatic Placement Tools: The add-on features specialized objects like RF_BEAM and RF_COLUMN that can automatically populate simple profiled beams and columns with rebars and stirrups. Eptar Reinforcement For Archicad 26
6. Editing reinforcement
- Use Eptar edit tools to:
- In Archicad’s IFC export settings, ensure rebar objects are included and mapped correctly to IFC classes (IfcReinforcingBar, IfcReinforcingMesh).
- Verify unit and coordinate settings.
- Create or import reinforcement standards (bending shapes, bar diameters, hooks) if provided by Eptar.
- Modeling: The structural engineer receives the architectural model.
- Tagging: The engineer uses the Eptar tools to tag concrete elements (identifying them as structural members).
- Reinforcing: Using the add-on’s palette, the user defines the reinforcement parameters (diameter, spacing, cover) and applies them to the elements.
- Documentation: With a few clicks, the software generates the 2D documentation, complete with dimensioning and bar schedules.
3. 3D Reinforcement Modeling
- Real‑time 3D visualization of rebar cages, including overlapping, spacing, and cover.
- Clash detection between rebars and embeds, ducts, or MEP elements.
- Interactive cutting plane for internal cage inspection.
