Path reinforcement - Adjusting U-Bar dimensions

Hi,

I'm trying to use the path reinforcement function to model rebar. Please see the attached screen-shot for reference.

How could I change the "B" dimension of the U-Bar (highlighted blue) to 105mm? I want the B" dimensions of the U-bars on the perpendicular faces to remain 125mm.

 

Help appreciated.

Thanks,

Joe

@Joe_Hughes I believe, if I understand what you are trying to do. You will have to manual adjust the shape of rebar element. To modify a rebar sketch, Click Modify / structural rebar > Edit Rebar Sketch tab, Adjust the rebar sketch.

Otherwise you need to change the shape of the rebar.

to avoid change for the other shapes make a duplicate to the shape from project browser families

@Ahmed_M_Heteba  a follow-up question if I may; I would like to use the Multi Rebar Annotation to call-up the rebar, however I can only select one set of bars. I fear this is because the foundation slab is at a gradient 1:40. Is there a solution for this?

 

See screen shots attached for reference.

Thanks,

Joe
