Not all concrete elements are rectilinear. EPTAR allows you to define complex, curved, or skewed reinforcement layouts, making it highly valuable for custom civil engineering projects, retaining walls, and modern architectural features. Step-by-Step Workflow in Archicad 26
While this article focuses on , Graphisoft has announced that Eptar will continue to be a strategic partner. Expect tighter integration with BIMcloud Saas and possibly AI-based optimization of rebar layouts to minimize cutting waste. eptar reinforcement archicad 26
Modeling mesh reinforcement in irregular slab geometries is often error-prone. The mesh tool allows users to define custom cutting boundaries, overlapping zones, and nesting layouts, automatically calculating the exact number of standard mesh sheets required. 4. Dynamic Scheduling and Bill of Materials (BOM) Not all concrete elements are rectilinear
Eptar does not replace Archicad native tools but enhances them. It creates dedicated "Reinforcement" objects that associate with Archicad structural elements (Columns, Beams, Slabs, Walls). Expect tighter integration with BIMcloud Saas and possibly
Manual scheduling is prone to human error. EPTAR Reinforcement automatically extracts data from the 3D model to generate accurate bending schedules. If you change a bar diameter or length in the model, the interactive schedule updates in real-time, keeping your documentation synced. 4. Definition of Complex Forms
Run the installation file. Once finished, an EPTAR Solutions option will appear in your top menu bar.
Generates schedules, cutting lists, and bending diagrams automatically.
