The development of this tool focuses on enabling a unified workflow for medium-sized firms where planning and engineering happen concurrently.
EPTAR expands the modeling capabilities beyond the native Archicad toolset: eptar reinforcement archicad 26
In compliance with global drafting standards, the add-on handles complex representations. In 3D views, rebar displays as realistic solid cylinders for clash detection. In 2D floor plans, sections, and elevations, it translates into standard engineering line-work, complete with bar marks, tags, and spacing callouts. Step-by-Step Workflow: Reinforcing a Concrete Beam
Generate automatic cutting lists and schedules, including shape, length, weight, and quantity. Go to EPTAR Solutions > Reinforcement > Reinforcement
| Step | Action | EPTAR Benefit | |------|--------|----------------| | 1 | Select concrete element (slab/wall/footing) in ARCHICAD 26 | Automatic host detection | | 2 | Define mesh type (EP Tar catalog: e.g., EP-257, EP-335) | Preloaded reinforcement schedules | | 3 | Set cover and edge distance | Parametric and editable | | 4 | Define overlapping (e.g., 300 mm or 40×d) | Automatic lap length calculation | | 5 | Generate 3D reinforcement | Instant, editable mesh | | 6 | Export BOM and bending schedule | Excel/PDF, ready for fabrication |
