What is ALLPLAN used for?
Allplan is a BIM (Building Information Modeling) software designed for a wide range of AEC (Architecture, Engineering, and Construction) professionals. Here's a breakdown of its key functionalities:
Interdisciplinary BIM:
Unlike some BIM software with a specific focus, Allplan caters to various disciplines within AEC. Architects, structural and MEP engineers, and civil engineers can all use Allplan for their respective tasks within the same project model.
3D Modeling:
Allplan allows users to create and edit detailed 3D models of buildings, including architectural elements, structural components, and MEP systems. This model serves as a central source of information for the entire project team.
Integrated Workflows:
The software offers tools and functionalities optimized for each discipline, allowing architects, engineers, and other specialists to work efficiently within their specific workflows. Yet, everything integrates seamlessly within the central BIM model, facilitating collaboration.
Enhanced Design and Visualization:
Allplan provides tools for creating realistic renderings and virtual tours, helping with design communication and stakeholder engagement.
Construction Documentation:
Similar to other BIM software, Allplan allows for automatic generation of construction documents like floor plans, sections, and elevations directly from the 3D model, saving time and reducing errors.
Overall, Allplan positions itself as a one-stop shop for BIM workflows in AEC projects. It empowers various disciplines to collaborate effectively using a central 3D model, streamlining the design, documentation, and construction processes.

ArchiCad
ARCHICAD is a Building Information Modeling (BIM) software developed by GRAPHISOFT, a subsidiary of Nemetschek Group. ARCHICAD is widely used in the AEC industry for designing and documenting building projects. ARCHICAD enables users to create 3D models of buildings and their components, allowing for accurate visualization and simulation of architectural designs
Revit
Revit is a Building Information Modeling (BIM) software developed by Autodesk. It's widely used in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry for designing and documenting building projects. Revit allows users to create 3D models of buildings and their components, such as walls, floors, roofs, and structural elements.
OpenBuildings Designer
OpenBuildings Designer (formerly AECOsim Building Designer) is a comprehensive Building Information Modeling (BIM) software developed by Bentley Systems. It empowers architects, engineers (structural, mechanical, electrical,) and construction professionals to collaboratively design, analyze, and document buildings of various sizes and complexities. OpenBuildings Designer provides a unified environment for 3D modeling, clash detection, construction documentation generation, computational design, energy modeling, and facilitates data-driven decision-making throughout the building lifecycle.
NovaPoint
Novapoint is a software suite developed by Trimble Solutions Corporation, primarily used in the civil engineering and infrastructure industries. Novapoint offers a range of tools and modules for various aspects of road and railway design, as well as for urban planning and land development projects. Novapoint includes modules for tasks such as road and highway design, terrain modeling, drainage design, and traffic analysis. It allows engineers and designers to create detailed 3D models of infrastructure projects, analyze design alternatives, and optimize designs for factors such as safety, efficiency, and sustainability.
One of the key features of Novapoint is its integration with other software platforms and industry standards. It supports interoperability with BIM (Building Information Modeling) workflows, enabling seamless collaboration with other design disciplines and software platforms. Novapoint also integrates with GIS (Geographic Information Systems) data, allowing users to incorporate geospatial information into their designs.
SketchUp
SketchUp is a 3D modeling software widely used in architecture, interior design, landscape architecture, and related fields.It allows users to create 3D models of buildings, interiors, furniture, landscapes, and other objects using a combination of drawing tools, push-pull modeling, and a vast library of pre-made components.
