In the new release, the data exchange between Allplan and Frilo has been further optimized, for example in the transfer of multi-layer walls. Reliable data exchange with planning partners is an essential requirement for efficient handling of construction projects with Building Information Modeling (BIM).

– Optimized collaboration with planning partners The new component types make component-oriented work easier. Palettes and handles are used to operate the features. Dome Roof lights, louvers, and additional door fittings can now be flexibly designed. The new object modeler for windows and doors also includes new functions. Work is also made easier with the wall dialog, for example, adaptation of the window size, multi-selection, and transfer of wall layers. Another new feature in Allplan 2015-1 is edge reduction in sketch mode, which enables an optimal display. Users then receive immediate visual feedback and can check different angles, camera settings, and materials. Architects and planners can create realistic and interactive animations of the building model now in just a few seconds with the real-time renderer.

It shows ongoing progression of the rendering result until the next update. The real-time renderer has been enhanced in Allplan 2015-1 with a progress bar.

The new features improve user-friendliness in terms of visualization. The advanced functions support users in reacting flexibly to changing project requirements and working more efficiently. This release offers numerous improvements ? starting with operation and object modeling in Allplan, through data exchange with planning partners. Nemetschek Allplan, leading European provider of software for the design and management of buildings, has released update (HF9) for Allplan 2015 SP1, this flagship CAD application offers first-class planning and design software for architects, engineers and building contractors.
