What is a Bend in the Rebar App?The bends creation is driven by the bar topology you are creating. You can create a rebar wire with the following methods:
During the wire creation process, sharp vertices are automatically detected . If such vertices are found, then 3D corners are created at each sharp vertex location. How is the Bend Radius Specified?Whether a configuration table was defined on the reinforcing object type (that is a predefined rebar profile) determines the bend radius value. let's detail the various situations.
If a configuration table was previously defined for the reinforcing bar object type, and a radius value was specified in the Conversely, if no bending radius can be retrieved from the configuration table or if no configuration table was defined for the reinforcing object type:
This bending radius value is applied on all corners of the rebar layer. ExamplesIf the topology is the same for all profiles of the rebar layer (same number of corners for each bar), you can specify a new bending radius value. This new radius value is replicated by the pattern on the corners with same position in the bar profile:
Note:
If the rebar layer topology is changed (the number of
corners differs for one or several bars), an error message informs you that a bending radius value can no longer be overloaded
locally. In this case, you can reconsider you design or switch back to a unique bending radius
value.
If the topology varies for one or several bars within the rebar layer, you can either:
