About this app
Revit is a powerful software that has revolutionized the way architects, engineers, and construction professionals design and collaborate on building projects. With the help of plugins like Precast Concrete 2020, the process of modeling prefabricated concrete elements has become more efficient and accurate. This innovative plugin by AGACAD offers a wide range of features that streamline the design and detailing of precast concrete walls, floors, beams, and columns within Revit.
Efficient Modeling and Detailing
One of the standout features of the Precast Concrete plugin is its ability to automate the modeling of prefabricated concrete elements. Architectural or structural floors can be easily split into various types of slabs, such as massive slabs or hollow-core slabs, according to predefined rules. Walls can be divided into wall panels, with connectors, cuts, plates, supports, anchors, grout tubes, and other details distributed based on user-defined parameters.
Furthermore, the plugin allows for the placement of reinforcement in solid, double, and sandwich walls, ensuring that all elements are structurally sound and comply with industry standards. The ability to easily mark and renumber project elements based on properties and location enables accurate bills of materials, quality production, and precise assembly on site.

Automated Fabrication Information
Another key feature of the Precast Concrete plugin is its ability to generate fabrication information automatically. By creating desired views, schedules, and customized drawings for each structural element, the plugin simplifies the communication of design intent to fabricators and construction teams. This not only saves time but also reduces the likelihood of errors during the fabrication and assembly process.
AGACAD's Precast Concrete software has been recognized as an Autodesk AEC Industry Solution for the precast industry, further solidifying its reputation as a trusted tool for professionals in the field. Additionally, the plugin seamlessly integrates with other Revit add-ons developed by AGACAD, allowing users to enhance their workflows with additional tools for metal framing design, wood framing design, Revit library and BIM content management, MEP, and more.

Easy Installation and Activation
Downloading the Precast Concrete App also grants access to AGACAD's TOOLS4BIM Dock, a platform that offers a range of Revit extensions for various industries. Activation codes for trials and purchases of Tools 4 Revit add-ons are sent automatically by email, while codes for BIM Solutions are sent manually. It's important to note that this app uses a custom installer, not the standard App Store installer, for a seamless installation process.

Conclusion
The Precast Concrete 2020 plugin for Revit is a game-changer for the precast industry, offering a comprehensive set of tools for modeling, detailing, and fabricating prefabricated concrete elements with ease. Its automation features, efficient workflows, and seamless integration with other Revit add-ons make it a valuable asset for professionals looking to streamline their design processes and improve project outcomes. If you're involved in precast construction, this plugin is definitely worth a try.
