Probar 2D for AutoCAD

Probar 2D is an add-in for Autodesk® AutoCAD® that turns it into a fully featured reinforced concrete detailing system. Probar 2D offers similar functionality to PROKON® Padds, only in the AutoCAD environment.

Probar 2D allows you to detail reinforcement directly in AutoCAD. Drawings that were created in Padds can also be opened in Probar 2D to work with bending schedules generated by the PROKON concrete design modules.

Reinforcement shape codes specified in the SA and UK detailing codes are included by default, and an easy-to-use rebar editor can be used to create custom shapes. Use multiple rebar types – single bars, bar groups, ABR (alternate reversed bars), staggered bars, stepped bars, and fanned bars – to add reinforcement to drawings.

Prokon 5.2 Probar 2D for AutoCAD capabilities include:

Wizards & Workflows

Probar 2D offers wizards to assist in detailing common structural parts that require repetitive actions. The wizards can read dimension- and rebar information from PROKON design module files and load the reinforcement into AutoCAD.

Rebar Properties Palette

Probar 2D uses the AutoCAD Properties palette for rebar objects for easy editing of rebar properties such as diameter, shape code, and Bar dimensions. Like other objects, rebar objects can be filtered out of a multiple object selection by selecting type “Rebar”.

Schedule Palette

The Scheduler reads all the rebar objects in the drawing, helps sort the information, and outputs the information in tables on the AutoCAD drawing.
