Hi, I am trying to import a RSAP drawing into ASD. Although the RSAP drawings are metric, ASD imports the drawings as imperial. I have tried to make the settings in ASD metric as default, but it does not solve the problem. Can anyone tell me how to proceed?

What is the way in which you export drawings to ASD? Could you make screen captures that show what codes set in Robot (Job Preferences) and what is the default template in ASD Reinforcement (or which template you select when you are asked) please?
Stroxy, I had this problem before and I solved the problem changing the standard in ASD.
I did the following: Preference> at Structural Detailing tab I changed the reinforcement and Formwork drawings to a standard that I knew that was in metric. Then save it as default.
Another option that you have is to export from Robot to ASD, choosing the same standard (shape code) that you run Robot.

Stroxy,
In case you are ACI user - please mind that there are two templates:
001 (imperial units)
001 metric
You are not able to switch units after selecting either of them.
