Allplan 2005 Information
Imagine - Draw the plan view as you have
done for years in 2D but automatically generate all the elevational and
sectional views - at the same time walk through a rendered virtual model
- Now at the click of a button quantify all the doors, windows, rafters,
brick-block-insulation in fact anything that you have drawn.
Imagine - this is only a small part of what Allplan 2005
can do for you - in less time that it originally took you to draw the
plan view only.
Imagine - Allplan 2005

Allplan 2005 is the complete intelligent solution. Developed especially
for architects, Allplan 2005 takes a superior approach to architectural
computer aided design. It gives you the kind of advanced tools required
to develop professional walk-through's including an unrivalled Live Virtual
Animation allowing you to take your client through a rendered fly-through
live on screen.
The
comprehensive drafting and detailing will allow your practice to create
precise construction drawings. Door and Window schedules can be a very
time consuming part of a project, typically a 500 window schedule would
take 2 - 3 days, - using Allplan 2005 it would take less than 2 minutes
!
In most cases a seat of Allplan 2005 will pay for its self in
the first 2 months of use - after which it's making your Practice money
!
With Allplan 2005 you can move fluidly from 3D design, solid modelling,
photo-realistic rendering, and live animation, to detailing, production
drafting, and file sharing tools.
The software's fully integrated tool set unites all phases of the building
design process - from floorplans to elevations, presentations and final
documents - accurately updating your data as you go.
With object technology that has been integrated since 1984, Allplan 2005
offers one of the most robust and refined object-oriented tool-sets of
any design software. Instead of using ordinary geometric elements like
lines, circles, and arcs, you design with smart objects-walls, doors windows,
stairs, roofs, and materials. A wall knows whether it 's an interior or
exterior wall, a door automatically begins at the floor, and a window
can only be created within a wall. Objects recalculate automatically when
inserted or modified and any changes are tracked and reflected in all
other project phases.

Intuitive user interface
Those
who know their way round Windows will feel at home with Allplan 2005,
since Allplan 2005's menu commands, windows, toolbars and file management
systems conform to the familiar Windows interface. - standard user interface
for all Allplan 2005modules
- even the most complex processes are easy to learn and to control
- rapid results even for novices and migrating users
- familiar menu and file management systems like in Windows Explorer
- additional option of using a wizard to select functions
Rapid data management
Even large quantities of data for large building models can be rapidly
processed, thanks to Allplan 2005-specific data management - even when
several people are using the Workgroup Manager simultaneously. As you
can see, Allplan 2005 saves you a great deal of time. - multi-file system
data storage allows the simultaneous loading and unloading of several
files
- the quantity of data in memory can be precisely controlled in such a
way that only those objects are loaded that you
want to process
- several users in the network can work on a project concurrently
working on a cross-location basis
using peripheral devices such as printers and scanners in the network
- transparent data access: You can see who is working on what
central management of all planning and design projects in one location
- establishing office standards and parameters for a standardized approach
and standardized design creation
-
assigning and modifying rights for projects and project elements
administrator feature for assigning, deleting and modifying project settings
- complete data exchange in the DXF, DWG,DWF or DGN format for other CAD
systems
- Allplan 2005 and Allplot 2005 combine architecture and civil engineering
in one and the same application
Allplan 2005 - an open system
A data model created with Allplan 2005 and all its accompanying information
can, of course, be further processed in many other applications. - practically
unlimited import and export options
- comprehensive import of the Allplan 2005 data model into CINEMA 4D
- direct data interfacing with automatic updating with D-Board® and
PlanDesign FT
- newly developed interface technology ODX (O.P.E.N. Data Exchange) ensures
Design Features
Practical design planning
Ideas rarely materialize at the touch of a button, and usually only when
you least expect them. Regardless of whether you draw your ideas on a
napkin or express them digitally by using the D-Board®, you can easily
scan and add everything into Allplan 2005 to work on it further. - import
freehand sketches and digital D-Board® design drawings into Allplan
2005
- digital object functions from traditional model building such as cubes,
spheres or cylinders
- freehand 3D drawing with shape recognition
- custom modeling, positioning, combining and merging of even the most
complex objects
- testing, modifying, complementing and checking your designs in the form
of a realistic preview and inspection in the 3D animation window
Intelligent building permission planning
From the rough concept to precise dimensioning, the data and designs you
have created are instantly imported and processed further. - very simple
design and definition work directly in 3D
- initial entry and modification of intelligent parts on the same screen
- work freely in the view of your choice: For example, you can move windows
in the 3D view and simultaneously modify the floor plan, while you can
also define and copy in isometric or perspective view
easily create elevations and sections from a 3D building model with a
mouse click, including precise dimension strings
- realistic WYSIWYG plan layout
Simplified installation planning
The
next step is precise calculating, dimensioning and cutting - here, too,
Allplan 2005 helps you achieve your goals. - creating "intelligent
parts": Ultimately, a complete building model is created from a great
many pieces of combined information
- automatic "piercing" of walls that is graphically correct
as well as correct in terms of the quantities involved
- assignment of priorities for individual parts, such as, for example,
for a reinforced concrete support piercing a brick wall
- automatic separation of different materials
- automatic "repair" of intelligent parts while undoing work
steps or modifications
- constant updating of the associative dimension strings, dimensions and
areas at each individual step
- due to a unique "reference planes" technology, even complex
design modifications can be processed in one step. For example, the story
height can be modified with just one entry, and the system then automatically
makes all further modifications, such as adjusting the wall height or
correcting the breast or window lintel. If needed, all modifications to
one story can be transferred to all other stories with a mouse click.
Comprehensive detailed planning
Working with precision: When it comes to taking care of the big picture,
Allplan 2005 takes care of all the details and refinements. - comprehensive
import and correct display of the data model throughout all work phases
-
correct modification of hatching, patterns and pattern lines based on
the drawing scale
- detailed processing with useful tools such as the detailing window
subsequent alteration of dimension lines, modification of parameters,
dimension line points, colored pattern lines and mitering
- using familiar techniques such as linear snap, point snap or rotating
the crosshairs.
Precise quantity takeoff
Allplan 2005 easily takes care of a great deal of important, time-consuming
work, such as, for example, correct quantity takeoff, list and schedule
output with graphic representation or problem-free data transfer to a
tendering system. - automatic lists provide expert knowledge
- up-to-date, precise, clear quantities at any time with a mouse click
- CAD-supported quantity surveying allows invitations for tenders even
at the item level
- precise area provision for manually or automatically calculated spaces
- automatic allocation of floor area and door reveal based on door swing
- automatically takes roof pitch into account during calculations
option to export all lists/schedules to MS Office.
