: Universal BIM tool for building construction with automatic screen scaling and role-specific menus to improve planning quality.
Allplan 2018 (and specifically the 2018-1 update) was a critical step forward, delivering a modern user interface, improved collaborative capabilities through Allplan Share, and better interoperability with IFC4 and DWG2018. It solidified its place as a top-tier BIM solution for complex, data-driven construction projects.
Allplan 2018 continued to excel in its core strength: detailed structural engineering.
Simplifies organic 3D modeling of curvilinear building envelopes. 3D Variable Reinforcement : Engineers can map complex rebar networks across
: Improvements in Allplan 2018-1 allow for better data import/export via the IFC4 interface, which improves the data quality of reports when collaborating on BIM projects.
Because Allplan 2018 supports highly detailed modeling, it provides accurate data for estimation and costing, facilitating a "Design2Build" approach.

As the AEC industry continued to evolve, Allplan 2018 remained at the forefront, adapting to emerging trends and technologies. Its users benefited from regular updates, new features, and enhanced performance, ensuring that their workflows remained efficient and productive. Allplan is a registered trademark of ALLPLAN GmbH
The most visible change in Allplan 2018 was the introduction of the .
: Tools are automatically grouped by project roles (e.g., Architecture, Structure, Engineering, or Surroundings).
Creating compelling presentations is vital for winning client approval. Allplan 2018 integrated Maxon’s , bringing Hollywood-grade rendering capabilities directly into the BIM workspace. Architects could generate photo-realistic renderings, simulate natural lighting, and apply high-quality textures without needing to export files to third-party rendering software, saving hours of post-processing time. 3.
