Previously, generating reinforcement for a large mat slab could take up to 30 seconds. According to internal benchmarks, the version reduces calculation time by 40% when working on models with over 5,000 rebars. This is due to the new API hooks in Archicad 27 that allow direct memory access for geometry calculations.
Eptar is powerful, but it’s not a beginner tool. The update assumes familiarity with Archicad’s native rebar tools. And the price point—while fair for what it does—means it’s still aimed at professional teams, not solo practitioners doing light structural work. eptar reinforcement for archicad 27 updated
However, based on BIM and structural detailing workflows, here’s what this likely refers to — and where you can find the actual updated documentation: Previously, generating reinforcement for a large mat slab
Furthermore, the visualization capabilities have been optimized. Archicad 27 boasts improved graphics engines, and EPTAR has updated its rendering to match. This allows for clearer 3D visualization of rebar congestion, helping engineers identify collision points between reinforcement and other structural elements (such as post-tensioning ducts or embeds) before they become costly on-site errors.
