In a landscape where construction professionals are continually seeking innovative solutions to improve efficiency, Allplan 2024 BIM software serves as the basis for successful project delivery. From intuitive excavation modeling to advanced formwork planning, this software brings a host of new features that will revolutionize how construction teams operate. Below, we explore the newest features of Allplan 2024 that help construction professionals deliver on time and on budget, every time.
Accelerating Design to Build for Construction Professionals
The Allplan 2024 release is designed specifically to be a powerful tool that supports and accelerates the entire design to build process. Through its array of dynamic design tools, state-of-the-art cloud integration, and cutting-edge BIM functionalities, Allplan 2024 bridges the gap between the planning and execution phase. For example, construction professionals can use the BIM model to develop thorough and accurate tenders, or detailed construction execution plans. Furthermore, its cloud-based capabilities, including BCF via Bimplus or BIMCollab, streamline issue resolution, making it a comprehensive solution for construction professionals committed to efficiency, precision, and quality.
Key Features in Allplan 2024 for Construction
Allplan 2024 comes equipped with a suite of features addressing three fundamental pillars of the construction sector: enhanced productivity, easy collaboration, and unparalleled construction quality. Allplan 2024 BIM construction software – in combination with Allplan Cloud – does this by providing better support for accurate groundworks and formwork planning, field measurements and take-offs, and precast concrete workflows.
Groundworks: Empowering Detailed Excavation Planning
Civil engineers and architects require robust tools for creating accurate excavation plans – whether it’s to obtain early-stage project estimates or to provide a detailed 3D model for contractors equipped with GPS-controlled systems. Allplan 2024 addresses this by offering an intuitive modeling environment for excavation and shoring elements. The software not only provides a detailed 3D model but also maintains the flexibility for changes even during the later phases of construction. Improvements have also been made to the bored pile wall, soldier pile wall, and ground anchor tools. This ensures that drafters can model earthwork elements with unprecedented detail and adaptability, making it a crucial tool for any construction professional.

Formwork Planning for Walls: Cost-Effective and Streamlined
Formwork planning is often outsourced, leading to additional costs and less control over project timelines. Allplan 2024 introduces the new BIM²form Add-On, which automates the assignment of wall formwork components. Currently compatible with the Meva Mammut 350 system, this feature will soon support more formwork systems. This leads to a drastic reduction in costs and allows construction professionals to keep formwork planning in-house, affording greater control over their projects.

BIM2Field Auto Measurement Tools: Precision and Efficiency On-Site
When it comes to making accurate measurements on-site, speed and precision are of the essence. Allplan Cloud, introduces Auto-Edge, Auto-Surface, and Laser measurement features that allow for rapid and precise evaluations of BIM models. This eliminates the cumbersome process of selecting multiple points to get a measurement, thereby improving the usability of mobile devices on construction sites. Coupled with the slideshow feature, it’s easy to share this data with project stakeholders.

BIM2Field Export QTO Table to MS Excel: Streamlining Quantity Take-offs
Allplan 2024 also offers cloud-based functionality to easily generate quantity take-off data directly on the construction site when used with Allplan Cloud. The new feature allows you to select objects in a 3D model in Bimplus and instantly calculate their volume or area to conveniently generate quantity take-off information on-site or whenever needed during the planning process. Moreover, these quantity take-offs can be exported to MS Excel, offering substantial time savings and reducing the risk of errors that could lead to additional costs and wasted materials.

Precast Concrete: Addressing the Skills Gap Through Automation
The shortage of skilled labor in precast plants is a growing concern, increasing the need for high levels of automation. Allplan 2024 rebar CAD software has extended its automated reinforcement features to specifically cater to mesh welding systems, taking into account the concrete cover of profiles at precast joints. This allows for error-free, accelerated workflows, helping to offset the skills shortage in the industry.
