Description

The Reinforcement BillOfMaterial tool allows the user to create a bill of material of reinforcing bars.

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

Bill Of Material of reinforcing bars

Usage

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

2. Then select Rebar Bill Of Material from the rebar tools.

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

Dialog Box for the Arch Rebar BOM tool

4. Modify data to suit your requirements.

5. To edit Rebar Bill Of Material SVG configurations, click on Edit SVG Configurations. A dialog box will pop-out as shown below.

6. Modify Rebar Bill Of Material SVG configurations and then click on OK to apply changes.

7. Click OK or Apply to generate Bill Of Material for rebars.

8. Click Cancel to exit the dialog box.
