The Path That Point Reinforcements Should Follow

recep.yazici — Tue, 31 Oct 2023 06:28:56 GMT

Hello. I'm trying to make column reinforcement. I cannot add point reinforcement like in Auto Cad. I wonder how I can draw a path that the point reinforcements should follow? Also, how can I display the point reinforcement with a single label after placing it as I wish? Thank you.

Revit does have a path option an it’s it called FreeForm Rebar.

In this instance you would typically model the straight arrangements and the curved ends separately.
As regards a Single Tag you would use a Multi-Rebar Tag which can be found on the Annotations Tab

Hi @recep.yazici

You can use aligned distribution free form rebar for this

Steps:

Go to 3D view and start the rebar command > FFR opens
Choose aligned distribution
Select the side faces for host surface
Press Space bar for next handle
Select the edges at top or bottom for distribution path > Finish

Edit constraints and edit the offset for the host surface handle to shift the bars inwards from cover (so the stirrups fit)

You can change the layout of the set at any time.

You can also tab click to select individual bars and move them so they fit better at stirrup corners.

I attached a simple model of this.

Can we change size A?
