Importing the Rebar Profiles Catalog

You can import a catalog of predefined rebar profiles to share across the BIM structure around a single platform with all stakeholders. As a BIM (Building Information Modeling) manager, you can follow this procedure to conduct a set up of your Concrete Structures 3D Design project using Data Setup. Data Setup allows you to put together resources and share them with all the actors in the project within one or several collaborative workspace.

To help you find the reference information you need to use the content delivered along with your app, you can consult the 3DEXPERIENCE Native Apps Content User's Guide.

Before you begin:

You are familiar with the sample files which are provided for you by default from win_b64\resources\.

The app optional content is not automatically installed along with the code. Contact your administrator if you must install the files you need. For more information, see Install Optional Content. You can also see Installation and Setup:Install: 3DEXPERIENCE Platform: Installing 3DEXPERIENCE Platform Services for the First Time: Installing Services One-by-One: Native Apps: Installing Native Apps: Installing a Native App.
