Nemetschek Allplan is a system of architectural and structural design, which implements an integrated approach to architectural and structural design. The program includes the following modules:
- “Allplan Architecture PRO” – for development of the architectural and construction part of the project;
- “Allplan Engineering Systems” – allows you to lay engineering networks on the building.
- “Allplan Reinforced Concrete PRO” – for conducting reinforcement of a given element, calculation of formwork, getting volumes of concrete.
After completing the course you will be able to
- know the interface and basic functions of Allplan;
- build complex architectural forms;
- design single- and multi-level rooms;
- process design documentation;
- create terrain using a digital terrain model;
- create your own model libraries;
- reinforce concrete structures;
- create calculations and estimates;
- import/export to other CAD programs;
- simulate sunlight in accordance with the geographic coordinates of the project and the time of day;
- visualize projects according to the master plan and visually determine insolation of construction objects;
- create high quality video clips;
- use the program’s networking features.
