Allplan – BIM Software for Structural and Architectural Projects

Allplan Overview

Nemetschek Allplan is one of the leading developers of object-oriented models in the field of global construction and creation of volumetric digital models. Providing a full range of services, this application will be with you at every stage of the development design – from the initial plan, design of the foundation and reinforced concrete structures, and to the execution of construction operations on the site.
Nemetschek Allplan supports interaction with cloud technologies for data transfer and storage. This allows a team of developers to work on a single project from different points on the globe. At the same time, a set of high-quality modeling tools allows you to create professional-level and high-quality projects.
Using the Nemetschek Allplan 2024 application, you can create complex models of not only residential, office and industrial buildings, but you can also apply these design solutions in the field of bridge construction and design of bridges of virtually any type. Of the interesting functions, we note the implementation of the design of precast reinforced concrete structures taking into account the full detailing of the process, and the design of complex steel connections, precast steel structures.

Allplan Features

• Unified BIM workflows covering architecture, structural, civil, and infrastructure design
• Strong support for both 2D drafting and 3D modeling with full object-oriented BIM methods
• Parametric modeling kernel (e.g. with Parasolid) for complex geometries and freeform surfaces
• Powerful tools for multi-layer components (walls, slabs), enabling detailed, sustainable building design
• Advanced door/window & stair modelers, with flexible editing, international standards, and direct manipulation
• Automated reinforcement detailing, including slab, wall, and surface reinforcement workflows
• Precast / prefabrication tools: shop drawings, configuration, validation for precast elements
• Terrain & infrastructure modeling: Digital Terrain Models (DTMs), roads, intersections, excavation & cut-fill analysis
• Formwork planning tools, including free-form formwork design and integration with manufacturer catalogs
• AI-assisted visualization tools: quickly generate renders and mood visuals, especially early in design phases
• Cloud-based collaboration: shared models, file/document sync, versioning, remote team collaboration
• Strong interoperability: support for many file formats (IFC, RVT, DWG, SKP, OBJ, etc.), APIs, point cloud import/export
• Information management: attribute editing, data palettes, metadata tables, quantity take-offs and reporting
• Tools for quality and error checking: clash detection, validation of standards / regulatory compliance
• Flexible licensing / deployment options; cloud service components and desktop + cloud hybrid workflows
