In the series of 4 webinars our experts will demonstrate how we can use Allplan Bridge in order to model special geometric details which are commonly part of bridge structures. The webinar series aims at users who want to explore the advanced capabilities of Allplan Bridge and increase their working skills and performance.
Parametric modeling is a modelling approach that enables the change of the shape of the resulting geometry as soon as a parameter is modified. Allplan Bridge is tailored for parametric modeling of bridges through elements governing the bridge geometry: axis, cross-section and variation of the cross-section along the axis.
With this approach, it is actually possible to generate any kind of structure that can be “extruded” along a simple or a complex line. The section to be extruded is defined as a cross-section, the line for the extrusion is defined by the axis and the variation of the extruded section can be defined either by a further axis or by table or formula. In this way many different structures can be modeled parametrically.
In this webinar modelling of the following structures will be shown:
- Foundations
- Tunnels
- Retaining walls
- Cooling Towers
- Terrain
