Software solutions for the precast industry

A kind of “concrete LEGO”

“The major benefit of Planbar is the significant streamlining and optimization of design and detailing activities – including the ability to take into account last-minute changes in the project, which is very common. A clear advantage of automated production is the ability to produce elements in almost any shape (a kind of “concrete LEGO”) with minimal errors and deliver them to the construction site practically “just in time,” which also speeds up the construction process itself without the need for additional storage space.”

High data quality thanks to Planbar and Tim

“ Planbar and Tim help us to produce high-quality data through their simple operation on the one hand, and on the other hand, through the Tim Quality-Manager, which assures us that after the approval of the data by our customer, pure and proper data is sent to production."

We rely on Planbar

“Planbar is our fundamental tool for any design activity. Every designer always uses Planbar daily, and the intuitive interface makes it an indispensable part of our design department. In Planbar, I always find a way to design complex parts and get them into our automated production line.”

Easy to learn and fully customizable

"Thanks to Planbar, I can quickly and easily model all kinds of buildings in 3D. Planbar allows me to handle more projects in less time and with higher quality thanks to numerous automated processes. At the same time, I can fully customize these automated tools to my specific needs. Planbar therefore offers me exactly the right mix of automated support processes and individual customizability. In general, I found it easy to learn the software and the operation itself is also effortless. Planbar provides clear visualizations and plans, which makes collaboration with the other project participants immensely easier."

100% reliable

"In order to be able to concentrate on the essential design, you have to be able to fully rely on your CAD program. Here, Oberndorfer has a very reliable and competent partner in Planbar. Due to the complex geometries, all prefabricated parts, the toothed girders, the grandstand slabs as well as the hollow core walls had to be modelled in 3D. Thanks to the animation windows and the possibility of rendering, Planbar enbaled us to carry out these checks of the intersections ourselves. Furthermore, thanks to Planbar, we were already able to include all important recesses/openings, electrical installations and assembly necessities in the concrete hollow walls of the stadion."

Efficiency and high quality

"For me, there is no way around Planbar. With no other CAD software can I work as quickly and efficiently as with Planbar. I particularly appreciate the integrated quality control, the fast output and data exchange of 3D data via IFC, as well as the immense time savings thanks to well thought-out automated processes. In summary, I would not have been able to plan the stairs in such a short time and with such high quality without Planbar."

Fast, easy, consistent!

"What we particularly appreciate about Planbar is the fast and easy 3D modeling. While we are working on the 3D model, Planpar automatically creates the associated shop drawings. This means we can be sure that the plans and the model are always 100% consistent. Finally, we can generate the necessary 3D reinforcement with just one click in Planbar. This makes our daily work easier and we gain valuable time."

Efficiency and precision

„We are pleased that we were able to make the greening of the award-winning Aglaya high-rise possible with our precast façade elements. We managed to design all the precast elements very efficiently and precisely thanks to our experience and our Planbar software. What we find particularly great about Planbar is the 1-click reinforcement and the automatic generation of the shop drawings."

Intuitive operation and quick adjustment

„We work with Planbar on a daily basis and particularly appreciate the simple, intuitive operation and the ability to react very quickly to adjustments, reprogramming and problems."

Customized software solutions and optimal support

„Planbar has been able to provide a detailing platform that has the software customization capabilities and the support staff necessary to allow for a customized solution to a specialty product line."

Planbar ranks top in our evaluation

„Its intelligence in providing precast solutions meets the company’s objective. Thanks to its reliability and flexibility, last-ditch modification in precast elements is achievable."

3D modelling and design from a single source

„We enjoy working with Planbar because it automatically generates reports, checks for collisions and calculates numbers of parts, concrete volumes and steel weight. All of that saves time and money."

Perfect model-based working preparation with Tim

„Tim allows us to perform model-based production planning and provides us with all the necessary information about products, components and processes at any time. At the same time, Tim also visualizes all of the contents and provides data for production and the ERP system in an optimized form."
