: The software can analyze complex data including volumes, areas, and reinforcement. Note that while reports can handle up to 98 attributes , the program may stop and issue a message if this limit is exceeded.
Allplan 2018 is a professional Building Information Modeling (BIM) software solution developed by ALLPLAN, a Nemetschek company. This version introduced significant advancements in interdisciplinary collaboration, modeling efficiency, and data management for architects and structural engineers. Core Features and Advancements
The interface was redesigned to be fully scalable, meaning it automatically adjusts to different monitor sizes and high resolutions (4K) for a consistent viewing experience. Allplan Share:
: Use existing 2D lines as references for 3D points. Use the Tabulator key to input delta values for vertical extensions (Z-axis). Architectural Components
: Improved data exchange through the new IFC interface, supporting IFC 4, IFC XML 4, and older formats like IFC 2x3 for better interoperability.
Allplan 2018 was the – it didn't reinvent the software, but it finally made openBIM practical. For teams that prioritized constructible models (especially concrete) over glossy presentations, it was a workhorse. Today, many European infrastructure and prefab concrete firms still use 2018 workflows because of its stability and rebar automation.
