IDAT Revit Precast for wall elements
Whether solid walls or double walls. The detailed planning and construction of wall elements is a process with many individual work steps. In relation to a complex 3D building model, your planners and draughtsmen need many hours of work to create the necessary production documents and production data.
IDAT Revit Precast for walls helps you to plan more efficiently, quickly and practically.
Install complete reinforcements and built-in parts fully automatically, safely and efficiently on precast walls or using the new IDAT Family Extender (for double walls coming soon from V.3). Another new development is our IDAT Explode command, which allows you to edit the basic model individually and in detail for each precast element. Visually explode the desired extender family into its components, edit specific details clearly according to your requirements and then reassemble them for application to the corresponding assembly. The standards naturally include additional reinforcement and special components at openings, slots and built-in parts. Component openings are created and placed fully automatically based on the necessary parameters.
Another major advantage is the ability to generate any number of production plans at the same time according to individual requirements. Compile these according to the most varied requirements with the greatest possible information content. Demand-oriented changes are of course possible at any time.
Once your plans are complete, approved and ready for production, you can generate qualified machine data in PXML or Unitechnik 5.2 and/or 6.0 from IDAT Revit Precast.

IDAT Revit Precast for slabs
There it is: The challenge of planning and producing slabs! Solid slabs, element or filigree slabs and, last but not least, hollow-core slabs. You can rely on the performance of IDAT Revit Precast as with all other element types (wall and general precast elements).
What’s right for walls can’t be wrong for slabs!
Based on this principle, you can generate any number of production plans simultaneously from your planning according to your individual view. You have the flexibility to decide which information should be included in your production documents and can focus entirely on the requirements and wishes of your customers and partners. If the requirements change, you can change the documents individually without affecting the BIM model.
The high efficiency of IDAT Revit Precast for slabs will become clear to you at the latest when you use our newly developed Family Extender, which is only available from IDAT. This allows you to install complete reinforcements and built-in parts on elementized slab parts fully automatically and safely. The unique IDAT Explode command also increases the individuality and level of detail in the processing of the basic model for slab elements. Visually explode the desired extender family into its components, edit specific details clearly according to your requirements and then reassemble them for application to the corresponding assembly. The standards naturally include additional reinforcement and special components at openings, slots and built-in parts. Component openings are created and placed fully automatically based on the necessary parameters.
The best of course at the end: When planning hollowcore slabs, IDAT Revit Precast enables you to freely select the profile for the hollowcore, including the end profiles. Furthermore, you can plan saw cut changes with a cut edge, which is simply impossible in the Revit basic functions!
Once your plans are complete, approved and ready for production, you can generate qualified machine data in PXML or Unitechnik 5.2 and/or 6.0 from IDAT Revit Precast.

IDAT Revit Precast for general precast elements
Model and edit general precast elements such as columns, beams or foundations flexibly and efficiently in your BIM model. You can access freely configurable or predefined families, place brackets or exchangeable beams individually and set any type of fastener according to your requirements. Thanks to the unique IDAT Family Extender, you can drastically minimize your design effort. Simply predefine the reinforcement in a family and generate it for all similar components across the entire 3D model in a single work step. (Big advantage: they reduce the risk of transmission errors.) Necessary adjustments to individual components are of course possible at any time.
To optimize communication and exchange between all project participants from the planning office to production or the construction site, we at IDAT offer you the option of generating your planning and production documents as required. Compile your data individually and use the exclusive option of generating several production sheets simultaneously, e.g. for component geometry and built-in parts and/or reinforcement.

IDAT Revit Precast – Shop drawings
This function automates the creation of shop drawings for precast concrete elements directly from Revit and offers a wide range of extensions for customizing the plan layout. An important function here is the automatic creation of several plans with different content (geometry, reinforcement, built-in parts, etc.) for the same element.
Depending on the precast element type, the user can define different plan layouts in advance and determine which information should be displayed accordingly. Later, the user can either have the various plan types generated for all elements of a type or decide individually for each element which plan type is to be generated. In both cases, the plans are created fully automatically.
The creation of shop drawings is also available for other precast element types such as columns, beams, girders or stairs. Theoretically, such a plan can be created for any Revit assembly. The options for the individual configuration of production plans also include the option to easily create additional views or sections on the plan. Furthermore, an individually configurable steel list with corresponding bending sketches can be placed on the plan.

IDAT Revit Precast – Estimation
This program makes it possible to create calculations for precast concrete structures for the purpose of determining prices for quotations. Calculations for walls, ceilings, bar components and special parts such as balconies etc. are supported. Every calculation is based on the Revit building model.
The user must configure the program to their individual calculation method before using it for the first time. For this purpose, any number of parameters or factors can be defined in general or depending on the component type and integrated into the calculation process (reinforcement grades, transport and planning flat rates, etc.).
For the Revit model, you can specify whether the complete model or only certain parts of it should be used for the calculation. The precast concrete element type must be specified for the Revit objects to be calculated (for walls, for example, whether a solid, sandwich or double wall is to be produced).
After starting the calculation, the function now determines all quantities and masses from the model as well as various specific data. For example, a virtual elementization of the model is carried out for slabs and walls in order to determine the expected number of elements and thus also element-dependent components such as lifting anchors or element connectors. For beam components, the program automatically determines the connection areas and thus the number of connection components or supports (e.g. brackets) to be taken into account. This information is collected by Revit Precast Estimation and automatically incorporated into the calculation according to the predefined rules.
