Perfectly integrated into AutoCAD, Advance Concrete significantly accelerates the initial design phase of buildings by offering detailers and engineers a library of drag and drop structural elements (slabs, beams, columns, walls, foundations), openings (doors, windows, depressions, openings, niches), bars (straight bars, point bars, frames, pin bars, stirrups), materials and standard sections.

Once the model is complete, Advance Concrete generates all construction drawings using a large selection of view production tools, dimensions, locations, symbols and automatic layout functions.
All the necessary tools are provided for fast and efficient modeling. Initial creation of a precise model is important since Advance Concrete will subsequently create all structural and reinforcement drawings from this model. Advance Concrete provides all the specialized functionalities required for the creation of reinforced concrete structures:
Complete library of structural elements (slabs, beams, columns, walls, foundations)
Complete library of openings (doors, windows, depressions, floor openings, niches)
Complete library of hole shapes (rectangular, circular, polygonal)
Materials and sections libraries
Levels management tools

Parametric Reinforcement: Advance Concrete enables assignment of parametric reinforcement attributes for each object (beam, column, openings). Reinforcement drawings are then automatically created! The user can also create custom reinforcement templates and associate them to structural elements.

Dynamic Reinforcement: A new technology that significantly accelerates the creation of reinforcement drawings by automating the placement of reinforcement bars and by keeping drawings up-to-date when projects are modified. It rapidly reinforces standard elements (e.g., beams, columns, footings, etc.) by integrating them in their context, as well as element nodes and junctions (e.g., wall/wall or wall/slab connections), and prefabricated elements.
Once the model is completed, the creation of the construction drawing can begin: sections, elevations, foundations drawings, isometric views, total or partial cuts, etc.
Using Advance Concrete&qout;s powerful reinforcement tools, the user can quickly generate bars and fabrics and distribute the objects. The software automatically creates material lists and steel ratios.
Advance Concrete provides comprehensive libraries of bars and fabrics and offers the option of creating and storing custom reinforcement objects using the exclusive DYNamic Reinforcement technology. While creating custom reinforcements, the user can modify all bar and fabric properties and see the modifications being applied in real time.
inally, to further accelerate drawing completion, Advance Concrete offers a large selection of automatic dimensioning and locating tools:
Associative and dynamic dimension lines
Interactive locations
Smart symbols and marking
Advance Concrete lends itself to your methods and tools.

With Advance Concrete, the user can draw reinforcement objects on:
AutoCAD 2D drawings
Calculated views generated from an Advance Concrete formwork/structural drawing
