solid slab reinforcement details

NERDASORUS — Thu, 19 Oct 2017 12:50:25 GMT

Hello
i have a solid slab about 7000 meter squared reinforced with T12 every 15cm ,maximum length of bar is 12m , is there a way to make revit do the reinforcing ?
in autodesk structural detailing it was easy , does revit have an equivalent feature ??

thanks in advance

Thank you for this
Yes i have tried that
Its only problem is, it doesnt put a maximum length for a bar ,it could go for as long as the span is , what i need it to do is place it with a maximum length (12 m).
In autodesk structural detailing you could do that by specifying the desired maximum length and the splice length , so i was wondering if revit has an equivalent tool.

thank you for this
i'm afraid that's not very helpful for reinforcing a slab , let alone a large one ..

Håvard Vasshaug has a workaround for it.

He is recalculating the rebar in th schedules.
