Summary

View or edit property information for classification, geometry, analysis, quantity settings of the Transverse Rebar Group.

How to Run

[Classification]
Set the classification properties of the rebar group.
- Name : Enter the name of the rebar group.
- Reba Type : Displays the rebar type.
- Grade : Sets the material grade of the rebar group.
[Specification]
Sets the specification of the rebar group.
- Code : Sets the rebar specification.
- Diameter : Select the rebar diameter. This is enabled only when a code is selected.
- Nominal Diameter : Enter the nominal diameter of the rebar.
- Bending Radius : Enter the bending radius of the rebar.
- Maximum Length : Displays the length of the longest rebar within the rebar group.
- Minimum Length : Displays the length of the shortest rebar within the rebar group.

Diameter : This is enabled only when a ‘Code’ is selected.
Nominal Diameter : Once the ‘Diameter’ is set, the nominal diameter is displayed. This can be entered manually only when ‘Code : None’.
Bending Radius : Once the ‘Diameter’ is set, the bending radius is displayed. This can also be input manually.

[Hook]
Set the shape of a hook.
- Differenct Start/End Hook : Set whether to apply hook settings differently to the start and end point of the hook.
- Direction : Sets the direction of the hook.
- Location : Sets the location of the hook.
- Hook Type : Select the type of the hook.
- Angle : Enter the angle of the hook.
- Radius : Enter the radius of the hook.
- Length : : Enter the length of the hook.

Different Start/End Hook
- Off : Applies same hook settings to start and end point of the hook.
- On : Applies different hook settings to start and end point of the hook. This enables the Start/End Point Tab button.
Direction
- Plane : The hook is created on the plane of the transverse rebar.
- Custom : The hook is created at a user-defined angle.
  - Rotation Angle : The angle at which the hook is rotated from the baseline (0≤θ≤180)
    - Rotation Baseline : The transverse rebar attached to the hook
    - Rotation Direction : Clockwise
Location : The ‘Offset’ criteria changes based on settings.
- Normal : A hook is created based on the inner line drawn by the user to draw the transverse rebar.
- Extended : A hook is created based on the outer line drawn by the user to draw the transverse rebar.

Hook Type : Select the hook type based on the angle.
- No Hook : The hook is not created.
- Custom Hook : The hook is created based on the hook angle entered by the user.
- ±180°, ±135°, ±90° : The hook is created according to the information specified in ‘Rebar Specification’. For this setting, the angle/radius/length cannot be set manually.

[Cover Thickness]
Sets the cover property that adjusts the position of the rebar group in the member.
- On Plane : Enter the rebar cover thickness on the plane. This is at an offset from the line created by the user.
- On Plane Cover Align Center : Set the criteria for ‘On Plane’.
- From Start/End Plane : Enter the rebar cover thickness from the start and end planes.
- From Plane Cover Align Center : Sets the criteria for ‘From Plane’.
[Offset]
Adjust the extension length at both ends of the rebar.
- Start/End Length : Enter the extension length at the start and end of the rebar. Enter a positive (+) value to shorten, and a negative (-) value to extend.
[Part Length]
Set the length of both end areas before and after rebar bending.
- Start Length : Sets the length of the end area on the start side of the reinforcement.
- End Length : Sets the length of the end area on the end of the reinforcement.

[Plane Alignment]
Sets the constraint reference point of the Rebar (Start/End) Plane.
- Ref. Point (Start/End) : Select the starting point/center point/end point above the geometric line of the target member and use when recreating the rebar group.

When the rebar group is recreated, the start and end planes of the rebar group are also recreated from the constraint reference points set by the user.
- Start Point : The start point of the Target Member Geometric line
- Middle Point : The middle point of the Target Member Geometric line
- End Point : The end point of the Target Member Geometric line
If the user changes the Plane Alignment settings, the information is saved based on the following rules:
- If the Plane Alignment settings in the same mode are changed: The plane position of the rebar group does not change. The distance from the plane to the new Ref. Point is changed internally.
- When recreating a target member (Geometric line changes, Library assignment, etc.) : The rebar group is recreated using the direction information and the distance between the Ref. Point and the plane.

[Arrangement]
Sets the spacing for the rebars.

Adjustable Spacing : Arrange the rebars using the entered spacing.
- First Spacing : Arrange the rebars using the entered spacing, and then adjust from the first spacing.
- Last Spacing : Arrange the rebars using the entered spacing, and then adjust from the last spacing.
- Middle Spacing : Arrange the rebars using the entered spacing, and then adjust from the middle spacing.
- First/Last Spacing : Arrange the rebars using the entered spacing, and then adjust base on equidistant spacing between the first and last spacing.
Number of Rebars : Arrage the rebars using the number of rebars entered.
Uniform Max. Spacing : Arrage the rebars at equal spacing.
Pattern Spacing : Arrange according to the entered spacing. Do not arrange for any remaining values less than the entered spacing.
User Defined : Arrange the rebars using user-defined spacing.
- Ex) 3@200, 400, 5@150

[Variable Rebar Name]
Sets the name rule within the rebar group.
- Array Group : Set the name of each arranged rebar differently.
- Splice Group : Set the name of each regar group according to the splice group.
