Bridge/Civil Engineering Component

You can use this tool to create bridge and civil engineering components by defining individual cross-sections at the station points of a linear path.

Section Along Curve

You can use this tool to create a section along any 2D element.

Tendon

You can use this tool to create the sheath and anchorage elements for a prestressing tendon in bridge and civil engineering components. The tendon uses an axis as the basis. This axis consists of points saved as a coordinate point file ending in *.re2.

Unfold Shell

You can use this tool to interactively unfold a 3D entity.

Convert Elements

You can use this tool to convert Allplan elements to different types of elements. The data are converted in the current document.

Copy, Convert Elements Across Drawing Files

You can use this tool to convert architectural elements and reinforcement to different types of elements. The selected elements are copied to a different drawing file before they are converted.

Modify Bridge/Civil Engineering Component

You can use this tool to modify bridge and civil engineering components you created with Bridge/Civil Engineering Component and placed in Allplan.

Modify Section Along Curve

You can use this tool to modify a section you created with Section Along Curve. The program immediately updates the section to reflect any changes you make in the palette.

Collision Check

You can use this tool to check whether selected 3D objects, architectural objects, SmartParts, smart symbols, fixtures or bar reinforcement collide.

Mark Critical Model Data

You can use this tool to find critical model data (3D entities and architectural elements) in the current document or drawing file or in all drawing files that are open in edit mode. Critical model data cause problems in animation, hidden line images, associate views and, above all, in sections.
