PANOPLIA

What Is PANOPLIA
PANOPLIA is a standalone application for the RC Detailing and Material Management of reinforced concrete buildings.
• It creates all required drawings and reinforcement details in 2D and 3D.
• It produces precise quantity surveying reports for all materials and tasks.
• PANOPLIA can use data from several well known structural analysis applications.
• It is designed for professionals of the construction industry. (Engineers, contractors, constructors and materials suppliers)

The main advantages of PANOPLIA are:
• SPEED in learning and using the application.
• RELIABILITY in results, detailing drawings and quantity surveying.
• TECHNOLOGY 3D Stereoscopic visualization.


APPLICATION FEATURES
Admirable SPEED in the completion of the project's design:
• Rapid, user-friendly and reliable description of the building's frame.
• Automatic creation of all the required formworks, reinforcement placement in the actual formwork in only a few minutes. The user   can select the number and diameter of reinforcement in every structural element.
• Creation of identical formworks by copying existing floors.
• Precise and analytical quantity surveying for the ordering of materials.
• Single or multi-editing of structural elements. User changes to any element(s) are automatically reflected to all results.
• Production of all detailing drawings and quantity surveying reports. A

 Advanced TECHNOLOGY and innovation:

• Stereoscopic visualization in virtual reality environment for even more realistic presentations.
• Specially developed, custom-made operating environment pi400PEN (PIsystems 4D Operating ENvironment) written in / OpenGL
• Multi-Core processor support with multithreading for even greater speed.

Description and editing of data:
• Rapid description Of the building's frame with the use Of intelligent automation tools which can be extensively configured.
• Import of DWG/DXF drawings as a background.
• 3D inspection for the verification of the described structural elements of the entire building.
• Support for all standard structural elements types. Creation of composite section elements.
• Creation and editing of all known staircases types.



Reinforcement selection:

• Automatic selection of reinforcement and creation of all detailing drawings.
• Support for several different stirrup types.
• Multi-editing of similar elements for fast reinforcement customization.
• 3D visualization of the actual reinforcement placement inside the structural elements.
• Automatic and precise creation of beam reinforcement details.
• Accurate reinforcement tables and lists.
• Automatic system fir optimised reinforcement bar production.

Section – Dimensioning:

• Automatic dimensioning of floor plan and section views.
• Section creation in 2D and 3D environment.
• Elements modification in the sedion.



Results production:

Drawings: User- friendly and flexible environment for intemal or external (DWG/DXF) editing. Dynamic update of already produced drawings whenever a change is made in the structural frame.
• Quantity surveying: For all materials of the structural frame.
• Cost estimation with customization features.

RELIABILITY scientific documentation and certification:

• The scientific documentation has been carried out by the renowned civil engineer and writer, Apostolos Konstantinidis.
• The application has received the official certificate of Microsoft for Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7.
• Import of structural frame from all software packages that can create pi.xml files.

Connectivity

• Two way communication with specialized software such as 076S, StereoSTATIKA, ArthiTEKTONIKA, pi-DESIGN, HoloMETRICA and all CAD applications.
