Slab Formwork in Revit: Smart layout planning. Maximum process reliability.
From conventional simple flex solutions to complex beam-and-panel combinations. Plan slab formwork automagically step-by-step —intuitive for technicians, optimized for the BIM workflow.
Preparation
Before the first click, there's the logic
System Selection
Select from manufacturer-specific systems (e.g., MevaDec, PERI SKYDECK, Ringer AluDEK) and use the Storage Manager to specify which element sizes and stock levels are available for planning.
Global Slab Settings
Define project-specific parameters for primary and secondary beams, maximum prop spacings, and load capacities.
Define standard panel sizes for quick and easy placement in large areas.
Supported Manufacturers
“All components are modeled precisely according to the manufacturer's specifications.”
- Bastian, CAD Design Manager at BIM²
Shoring
Place shoring towers in seconds. The system automatically switches to section views for defining the extension heights.
Automation with Panels
Planning in Record Time with Modular Systems
Maximum planning speed for standard floor plans.
Semi-automatic Placement using Panel Methods
Fill large areas in automated steps. Complete standard areas using the start command and define connection and compensation areas directly on the model.
NEW! Smart Compensation Options
Optimize compensation areas using new approaches. Choose between “minimum compensation” to minimize material usage or “compensation with H20 beams” for hybrid system solutions.
Accessories
Automatic placement of guard railing systems (posts/units) and element connectors.

Flexible Automation
No geometry is too complex for Flex Slab
Automatic Slab Formwork
Use the room selection tool for automated occupation of Revit rooms, or the edge selection option for maximum flexibility.
Settings
Define prop spacing, support loads, and accessories for your entire workflow.
Precast Support
Install primary beams and props in closed rooms in a matter of seconds.
Individual Components
Final detailing through the manual placement of primary beams, secondary beams, and formwork facing panels.
It takes just 10 seconds to set up 100 square meters of formwork.
Modify & Adjust
Additional Features
Primary Beams
Efficiently design primary beam rows, including props and accessories, as copyable groups.
Secondary Beams
Optimize secondary beams with overlaps for standard sections or specific formwork joints.
Forming Face
The forming face is placed intuitively within the system by defining three reference points on the floor plan.
Rotate Text
Automatic alignment of labels and specifications with the reading direction on the drawing.
