Rebar Coupler - extended information transferred to bars.

Make the coupler information transferred directly to bars:

More information than just threaded/welded:

For instance:

- wich is male/female

- female/female with muff

- T-head with rectangular plate

- T-head quadratic plate

- T-head with circular plate

Its not very useful when the bars only have information if it's welded or threaded.

End treatment information can be edited and referenced by each coupler type.

Welded and Threaded are just two examples, that are added to the default types.

These can be renamed or other values can be added.

To do this use the project browser, navigate to Families > Structural Rebar > End Treatement and right click any of the values listed and click duplicate.

Now you can rename it to something explanatory for how the bar needs to be fabricated.

Alternatively you can specify end treatments when you are editing a coupler family (Families > Structural Rebar > End Treatement) and when you load it into the project the new values get added.

You can specify end treatments for each coupler type.

Let me know if this is what you were looking for.

Thanks,

Ovidiu
