Unable to position U-shaped reinforcement bars on the surface of the circular wall.

Hello, I'm attempting to figure out how to model U-shaped reinforcement bars on the circular wall surface, as shown in the model. However, when I try to place U-shaped rebar in Revit, it doesn't allow me to position it as shown in the image. Could you please advise on the best modeling procedure in Revit to achieve this?

 

Thankyou in advance

Old method of copy/array

If you look at the circular structure directly on a quadrant face (say South elevation)

Pick your bar shape > Far Cover Reference > Parallel to work plane and draw directly the u-shape using space to rotate and editing the bar dimensions/constraints

In Plan you can then use Array > Radial > Use your required settings

There is probably a better way using FreeForm Rebar but i just cannot visualise sorry!
