PASCHAL-Plan light (PPL) 12.0

PASCHAL formwork planning in a new dimension for the planning with BIM technology

The formwork planning and warehouse management software PASCHAL-PLAN light (abbreviated to PPL) supports every building contractor or planning engineer in large building firms so that the use of formwork can be planned to the very best and the site can be supplied in due time with the necessary equipment available in the warehouse.

The new version PPL 12.0 now possesses three important interfaces for importing and exporting: DXF, DWG and IFC4. The reading in of 3D model data and fully automatic formwork planning with all PASCHAL formwork systems is now a reality and this represents a new feature in terms of formwork software.

The fully automatic PPL 12.0 formwork software reads in the BIM data via the integrated IFC interface and generates the ideal formwork complete planning from the data.	The formwork planning can be displayed, issued, calculated and kept track of section by section and in phases. In this way, work scheduling and construction management always have an overview of the construction project.

Manufacturer-independent formwork software for concrete construction projects

In addition, two panel formwork families (type 1 and type 2 system) have been implemented in the "60/120" module. For the users of PPL 12.0 this has the unique benefit that PPL 12.0 can be used to carry out all formwork planning for all projects, meaning that only one formwork software program has to be acquired and learnt, even if using formwork systems from various manufacturers.

Mobile data use with the interface from PPL 12.0 to the PASCHAL AR app

The developers of PPL 12.0 have, with the PASCHAL AR interface, made everything totally consistent from the 3D formwork model across all process steps on the construction site. The result in the AR app shows the respective current state of planning.
