EFFICIENT WORKFLOW WITH ALLPLAN BRIDGE

PRESTRESSING MODELING MADE SIMPLE

Allplan Bridge makes it easy to model a wide range of types of pre-stressing: with immediate or later bond, internal and external, longitudinal, transverse and vertical, as well as with non-standard geometry.

Based on user-defined 3D points, the program automatically generates the geometry of a tendon along the bridge structure. Each 3D Tendon point is specified by the position along the axis, and the position in the cross-section in relation to a reference point. In addition, direction angle and curvature radius of the tendon can be specified in each point.

Selective parameters can be defined as variable. When calculating the detailed tendon geometry, the program determines these values automatically, using an intelligent algorithm minimizing the friction losses in the stressing process.

A special point grid is available in the cross-section to ease the specification of the tendon position in the cross-section plane. This point grid facilitates copying and mirroring of the tendon in longitudinal and transverse direction.

 

  • Any tendon type: Pre- and post-tensioning, internal, external, vertical, transversal
  • Any geometry
  • Interactive and flexible input
  • Modification possible at any design state
  • From preliminary design till drawing production
  • Easy handling (copying individual tendons or tendon groups)
  •
