Rebar Shape Code 98

[g.cimino]

Hi all,

it would be nice to implement the possibility to create rebars according to ShapeCode 98 (chairs/standees). 

As pointed out here here, it's possible to mock the shape with multiplanar tool, but with the legs both bended in the same direction, that should be easily to achieve...with a "hook-like" rotation option for the legs (using a multiplanar 21 Shape) o unlocking full 360° rotation (90° steps) for hooks (using a multiplanar 00 Shape)...

Thanks, best regards.

Workaround: You can change rebar the Geometry parameter from Shape Driven to Free Form, then change  the Hook Orientation At Start/End parameters to the  desured rotation angle.

Hi!

thanks for the tip, I'll surely keep that in mind.

Best regards!

@Nurlan-A.

I've tried what you suggested, and it obviously worked. However, the freeform rebar is based on a straight shape (the first, I suppose, in the rebar shapes list just like area and path reinforcement), which may not meet scheduling criteria (eg: wrong shape images)...

Anyway, in case of need...I guess a solution will come up.

Thanks again.

Hi everyone,

This feature has been released in Revit 2021. Please try it out and let us know your thoughts about how it works. You can read more about how it works here.

Hi @peticid ,

thanks for having that implemented in 2021. 

Any chance to bring it in 2020? We're in need for ongoing projects that cannot update to 2021.

Thanks!
