Editing Rebar Dimensions

[Anonymous]

I have just started using the rebar modelling aspect of Revit and am also new to modelling rebar, it seems to be going ok but for some reason I cannot change the dimension value for C.. this has not been a problem for any of the other rebar I have used so far. From the British Standard (image attached it seems value C and D are related) and that D value will influence C value but when i change D value there is no impact still.

Values i have:

A-850

B-735

C-(1150) not sure why this is in brackets on the schedule

D- 545

Hi @Anonymous ,

The value of C is controlling by the hook length. and it is depending upon the bend diameter and the diameter of the bar and the extension multiplier for the type of hook as per BS 8666. Please refer to this image.

You can manually change this value by selecting the rebar and editing the hook length property from type property menu.
