Hello,

How correctly use custom elements? For example I need to use concrete slabs in project, but in allplan element library I don't have those elements. How can I create them? And this slabs need to be 3D elements.

Or easier import them for example from Archicad?

In "Bonus tools/Concrete construction - 3D Objects" I found some 3d concrerte elements, but how can I add more elements to catalog selection?

Thank's for any help!

Hello i_trofimov,

When you say 'Concrete slabe', i suppose you speak about precast concrete slab.

If you use a standard version of Allplan, you can use some special component Inside the bonus tool as you said.

You can also create 3D volume with the modeleur. You won't be able to add Inside the existing Library in the Bonus Tools / Concrete construction.

But you can easily save them in your office Library and use them as much as you want.

Using the 3D modeleur is realy fast.

You can also use or create some python part with the 3D definition you need.

Or you can import an IFC model if it's done in Archicad if you want.

At least if you have to do a lot of project like that, than you can also have a look on our Precast solution. It's only depend on the quantity and what you would like to have as result.

Bye & Good Use!

Whats mean "modeleur", don't understand this word.

And how can I do this "You can also use or create some python part with the 3D definition you need." ?
With what instruments?

I import some slabs from archicad, and use them in model. But when I make drawings with slabs, all slabs wich were created with instrument "slab", I can edit or define hatch/pattern/fill. But those elements what I was imported from archicad defined like Smart Symbol, and I don't understand how can I modify them.

Thank you for answer!
