Moving from Allplan 2013-2018 to Allplan 2025: reinforcement made smarter
Moving from Allplan 2013-2018 to Allplan 2025
Make sure to watch the video — it shows all key changes with real examples.
If you're still working in Allplan 2013-2018 and considering the transition to Allplan 2025, this video is especially relevant. It's aimed at Allplan Engineering users who focus on reinforcement design. The video demonstrates what has changed in the workflow and how to use the updated tools effectively.
UVS
In Allplan 2016, reinforcement was handled using dedicated reinforcement sections and views. In Allplan 2025, this approach has been replaced by universal views and sections that can be used for any model element. The video shows how to work with these new tools and explains the main differences.
Updated reinforcement placement tools
Reinforcement tools in Allplan 2025 have become more intuitive and flexible. In the video, you will see how to place reinforcement using the new interface and how these tools improve speed and precision when working on real projects.
PythonParts for automated reinforcement
The video also covers the use of PythonParts for automated reinforcement of standard elements such as columns, beams, walls, wall corners, and stairs. This functionality helps you speed up your workflow while maintaining full control over parameters and geometry.
Freeform reinforcement
For projects with complex geometry, the video demonstrates how to use the following tools:
- Extrude Along Path
- Sweep Bars Along Path
- Place Bars Along Surface
These tools are particularly useful when reinforcing irregular shapes, such as bridges, curved staircases, or non-standard elements.
Who should watch this
The video will be helpful if you are:
- using Allplan Engineering
- working with structural reinforcement
- moving from Allplan 2013-2018 to 2025 and want to explore new features
This is a practical, example-based overview — watching the video is the fastest way to get familiar with the updated reinforcement workflow in Allplan 2025.
