(API)(RSA 2022) RC member design and its reinforcement quantity

[shulwh]

I want to know whether the RC member can be designed through the API of Robot Structure Analysis, and the amount of reinforcement can be derived. If possible, can you show the interface and members to be used, or show the corresponding code (C#/VB/C++/Python)?

In fact, my goal is to design the entire concrete structure and derive the amount of reinforcement for the entire structure. I don't know if I can do that through the API.

I look forward to your help and thank you in advance.

Hi

Could you explain to me what exactly you want to do:
- you want to use the RC code existing in RSA to calculate required reinforcement, and than transfer reinforcement via API to external application (or add-in)
- you have your own RC code and would like to run your algorithm from required reinforcement in RSA, and than see results in RSA

If you explain me your idea I'll try to give you some hints.

Thank you for your reply. I'm sorry for my ambiguous question.
I want to use RSA's API to do the following two things: first, calculate the required reinforcement using the RC code that exists in RSA, and then transfer reinforcement to external application (e.g. excel).

Sorry for late reply but I tried found example with use of this part of API. Unfortunately I didn't find it. It can be a gap in our API. I found interface to read required reinforcement from plate/shell reinforcement module. It is called: IRobotFeResultReinforcement (Result vector for reinforcement.). Full description you can find in "Robot API.pdf" file which is installed with RSA SDK. My colleague is trying to find something connected with reinforcement of members.

Thank you for your answer. I think this interface can meet my needs.
