Reinforcement BarBendingSchedule

Description

The Reinforcement BarBendingSchedule tool allows the user to create the bar bending schedule of reinforcing bars.

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

Usage

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

2. Then select Bar Bending Schedule from the rebar tools.

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

Dialog Box for the Reinforcement Bar Bending Schedule tool

4. Modify data to suit your requirements.

5. Click OK or Apply to generate Bar Bending Schedule for rebars.

6. Click Cancel to exit the dialog box.
