Eptar Reinforcement For Archicad 27 ~upd~ Jun 2026
Beyond geometric modeling, the plugin functions as a structural data hub directly on the floor plan.
Before adding steel, use Archicad’s standard tools (Slab, Wall, Beam, Column) to build your structural concrete frame. Ensure your layer combinations are set up to separate architectural elements from structural components. Step 2: Define Reinforcement Settings
: The solution is comprised of two parts: a GDL object library and a dedicated Add-On menu.
Here is a comprehensive guide on how EPTAR Reinforcement transforms your structural workflows in Archicad 27. What is EPTAR Reinforcement? eptar reinforcement for archicad 27
: Allows for custom-shaped reinforcement, including arcs, through a specialized "Polygon Editing" mode.
Open Archicad 27. Go to File > Libraries and Objects > Library Manager and ensure the Éptár Reinforcement Library is loaded.
Eliminates the need to export your model to external 2D CAD programs just for rebar detailing. Everything stays within your Archicad .pln file. Beyond geometric modeling, the plugin functions as a
: The add-on contains parametric macro-objects that allow the quick insertion of stirrups and longitudinal rebars into standard columns, beams, and crownings.
automates the placement of rebars, stirrups, and mesh, while providing tools for precise structural detailing and quantity take-offs Core Functionalities Automated Element Placement
