BIM-ready structural element reinforcement for Allplan

A separate BIMFlex module for every structural element, and every one of them stays revision-proof.

BIMFlex Allplan Column Reinforcement

Models the longitudinal bar layout and the stirrup confinement zones of column elements automatically. When the geometry changes, the reinforcement updates itself.

See the details

BIMFlex Allplan Beam Reinforcement

Models the span and support reinforcement, the stirrups and the bend details of beam elements automatically, and adapts to geometry changes.

See the details

BIMFlex Allplan Wall Reinforcement

Shear Wall Reinforcement

Models the vertical and horizontal reinforcement, the cross ties and the boundary elements of shear walls automatically, and prepares the longitudinal and end-face sections together with the foundation starter bars.

See the details

BIMFlex Allplan Wall Opening Edge Reinforcement

Detects door and window openings in shear walls automatically and models the U-shaped (hairpin) or closed stirrups that wrap the opening edge, the corner diagonals and the additional edge bars. You can pick openings one by one or take the whole wall at once.

See the details

BIMFlex Allplan Slab Reinforcement

Models the top (support) and distribution reinforcement of slabs automatically, keeps it aligned with the neighbouring slabs and updates itself after revisions.

See the details

BIMFlex Allplan Slab Opening Edge Reinforcement

Adds the corner trimming bars that relieve the critical stresses around stair, lift and service openings in slabs, automatically.

See the details

BIMFlex Allplan Complex Shape Reinforcement

Reinforces concrete elements whose geometry does not fit a standard shape. It builds U-shaped, L-shaped or straight bars to suit the surface you pick, and takes the openings into account.

Longitudinal bars and stirrups in seconds, not minutes

Models the longitudinal bar layout and the stirrup confinement zones of column elements automatically. When the geometry changes, the reinforcement updates itself.

  • Reinforcement and details ready in a fraction of the time
  • Staggered bar layout
  • Works on solid models as well

Trimming bars around openings — automatic and revision-proof

Adds the corner trimming bars that relieve the critical stresses around stair, lift and service openings in slabs, automatically.

  • Bars sized automatically to the opening
  • Corner trimming bars and U-bar closures
  • Layout updates itself after a revision

  • Automatic layout of span and support reinforcement
  • Stirrups and bend details prepared for you
  • Staggered bottom and top bar arrangement

Why BIMFlex?

Your reinforcement is part of your BIM model

BIMFlex does not merely draw the reinforcement; it creates real reinforcement objects that carry data through Allplan's openBIM infrastructure.

Native BIM objects

The bars are not lines: they are real Allplan reinforcement objects carrying diameter, spacing, count and bend data.

3D model

All reinforcement sits in the three-dimensional model, ready for visualisation and clash detection.

Automatic quantity take-off

The bar schedule and the quantities are produced from the model automatically and update themselves after a change.

openBIM / IFC

The model can be exported as IFC and shared with other disciplines and other software.

One single source of truth

Drawing, three-dimensional model and quantity take-off all come from the same data, so nothing falls out of step.

Revision-proof

When the formwork geometry changes, the reinforcement is updated to the new boundaries in moments.

Before / After

Drawing workflows compared

What changes when you do the same work in the traditional workflow and with BIMFlex?

Design processTraditional modelling workflowBIMFlex workflow
BIMFlex Allplan Column ReinforcementPlacing the longitudinal bars and the stirrups one by one, by hand, with the standard commands.The reinforcement and its details are ready in a fraction of the time, the bars can be staggered, and it all works on solid models too.
BIMFlex Allplan Beam ReinforcementWorking out the span and support bars and the concrete cover by hand, then drawing the bends.Span and support bars, stirrups and bend details are all prepared automatically.
BIMFlex Allplan Wall ReinforcementAdding the vertical and horizontal bar layers and the cross ties to the layout grid one by one.The bars and the cross ties are placed automatically, including the boundary elements, the longitudinal and end-face sections and the foundation starter bars.
BIMFlex Allplan Slab ReinforcementCopying the additional bars and the bent-up bars by hand, using the slab boundaries as reference.Top (support) and distribution reinforcement is laid out automatically, aligned with the neighbouring slabs.
BIMFlex Allplan Slab Opening Edge ReinforcementDrawing and placing the trimming bars and the U-bar closures around the opening one by one.The reinforcement is sized automatically to the opening and is updated whenever the opening is revised.
Revision managementHaving to rework the whole reinforcement model every time the formwork plan changes.The reinforcement is brought up to date with the new formwork boundaries in moments.
