Fall protection is only one of the strong points of our range of planning services – they can also be used to plan your tapered insulation and drainage systems in line with the current regulations. With more to come soon: We strive to continuously expand our ABS Plan planning software to include additional services for flat roofs.
Your plan always kicks off with a model of the roof. You can import an existing roof view or sketch, use a satellite image or create a plan of the roof based on its dimensions. Our integrated drawing tools let you add the roof shape and superstructures quickly and easily. In just a few minutes, your 3D model is ready for getting started on the detailed planning.
The planning functions have been divided up into different modules: Measurements, drainage, insulation, building physics, wind suction protection, fall protection and PV planning - to ensure optimum focus, only the tools currently needed for the next planning step are displayed
There is absolutely nothing simpler: Just set the main and emergency drainage points and ABS Plan automatically calculates the amount of rainfall. According to the size of your roof and your precipitation region. Just one click lets you export a drainage confirmation document in PDF format.
You can also rely on the automatic planning function of our tool when it comes to thermal insulation (basic and tapered insulation). Based on the target U-values set down in the construction regulations, ABS Plan can calculate the required materials and quantities using the information you provided on both materials and manufacturers. This not only saves you time but money as well! The PDF created provides information on the planning results, including all the technical details, calculated U-values and the bill of materials
Safety systems, anchorage devices and guardrails - our planning software helps you draw up your plan by automatically providing a proposal showing you live which areas are sufficiently secured. This unique function helps you to make the right decision regarding the most suitable safety system for your project - letting you see at a glance whether everything has been accordingly secured.
If you have any questions, our experts at ABS Safety will be happy to help you.
Our integrated PV planning feature lets you create the optimal installation plan - quickly and efficiently. A smart algorithm automatically positions the maximum number of modules possible on the roof surface - simultaneously determining the best substructure for integrating your fall protection system. Areas in the shade are identified and directly incorporated into the calculation to ensure the best-possible performance. In addition, the automatic ballasting calculation feature provides precise structural data so that weights and pressure loads can be accurately calculated.
A 3D view visualises the situation realistically - not only impressive in itself, but also helping you to present your plan to your customer in a way that they can understand. Our PDF export and automatic parts list generation features ensure you have all the relevant data at your fingertips.
Project management has rarely been easier. ABS Plan not only lets you create professional sketches of a flat roof surface. You can use the tool to generate parts lists, create a schedule of services (SOS), send enquiries to the manufacturers and order the required products. Additionally, you can also have your plan checked by experts for free. In just a few clicks. ABS Safety will provide you with a quote for your plan within 24 hours.
