Graitec Arche Hybride 2020


Arche Hybride is the reference software for the design and execution of reinforced concrete buildings.

It is distinguished by the technical innovations that it implements: pre-dimensioning of the elements, lowering of loads and study of the bracing mixing the traditional method and sophisticated digital modeling, automatic production of reinforcement plans for structural elements according to different standards, in particular the EC0, EC1, EC2 and EC8.

Arche now represents more than 4,000 licenses, 10,000 users and thousands of completed projects.


Why “Arche Hybride”?

The hybrid qualifier indicates that recent versions of Arche embed two technologies that coexist:

the proven technology of Arche reinforcement modules as you have known and used them for over 20 years; and a completely innovative new module technology resolutely oriented towards BIM, the “BIM Designers”.

The new modules, the Advance Design Modules provide many new features such as a completely revised user interface, new sizing possibilities, detailed calculation notes ...

Arche Hybride is therefore a new version of Arche which will ensure its durability for many years to come. Beyond this new technology, the software has one main update per year, each new version incorporating many business functions.


From building simulation ...

Arche Ossature is a building simulation software that allows you to quickly and rigorously conduct your load descent, bracing and earthquake studies, while respecting the usual methods of the profession.
Arche Ossature is distinguished by its technical innovations:
Integrated 3D CAD or bi-directional integration with the Autodesk ecosystem and in particular the Revit software
Eurocode, BAEL, American and Canadian standards
Predimensioning of elements by charts or analytical formulas.
Calculations of load descent and bracing with models combining traditional methods and sophisticated digital modeling
3D climate generator (EC1, NV65-84)
Seismic analysis in modal dynamics.

... to the production of plans

Arche Hybride's reinforcement modules are dedicated to the design, analysis and automatic production of reinforced concrete reinforcement plans.

Indicate the geometry, the loads and the general assumptions, and you will obtain with a simple click the stress curves, the stresses in the concrete and the steel, the arrows, and of course ... the execution reinforcement plans, in through detailed calculation notes including all references to applied standards!

With Arche Hybride Reinforcement, you have top-of-the-range software that optimizes the design of reinforcement by making the most of the uses of the profession.

New technology, Advance Design Modules for dimensioning beams, columns and footings.
Specific modules for the calculation of sails and bracing sails
EC2, BAEL, ACI, A23.3, DTU Fire standards
Constructive provisions in accordance with earthquake-resistant rules (EC8, PS92, RPA99, RPS2011, NBC, NCSE, SI413, P100-92, P100-2004 ...)
Interactive modification of the reinforcement with alert to the user in the event of non-compliance with the regulations in force
Integrated CAD for editing plans
Synchronization of rebar cages with Autodesk Revit software.

Everything for reinforced concrete!

Arche Hybride also provides tools for calculating the geometric characteristics of sections, for theoretical EC2 / BAEL calculation and for producing steel slips.
It even includes a realistic rendering module.
