Quantity Inspector
Automatic geometric recognition for detailed analysis directly in ALLPLAN. The add-on identifies around 16,000 steel sections from their dimensions alone and efficiently analyses staircases, sections and 3D solids — volume, surface area and section length, dimension calculation, a dynamic display of axes and cross-sections, and filtering by type and direction.

Working on reinforcement?
The ALLTO line automates 3D reinforcement in ALLPLAN — slabs, walls, beams, columns, foundations and elevator pits. It is built for structural engineers: parametric PythonParts create the bars, sections and labels, and the quantities come straight out of the model.
