Description

The Reinforcement BarShapeCutList tool allows the user to create the rebar shape cut list of reinforcing bars.

This tool is part of the Reinforcement Workbench, an external workbench that can be installed with the Addon Manager.

Rebar Shape Cut List of reinforcing bars

Usage

1. Select Arch Rebar and Rebar2 objects you want to include in Rebar Shape Cut List. Or select Arch Structure objects to include Arch Rebar and Rebar2 objects hosted by those into Rebar Shape Cut List. If nothing is selected, then Rebar Shape Cut List will be generated for all Arch Rebar and Rebar2 objects present in the model.

2. Then select Rebar Shape Cut List from the rebar tools.

3. A dialog box will pop-out on the screen as shown below.

Dialog Box for the Reinforcement Bar Shape Cut List tool

4. Modify data to suit your requirements.

5. Click OK or Apply to generate Rebar Shape Cut List for rebars.

6. Click Cancel to exit the dialog box.
