Summary

  • View or edit property information for classification, geometry, analysis, quantity settings of the Longitudinal Rebar Group that is dependent on the Spiral Rebar.

 

How to Run

  • Select the Spiral Longitudinal Rebar Group on the screen.

 

Explanation

Common Tab

 

  • [Classification]
    Set the classification properties of the rebar group.

    • Name : Enter the name of the rebar group.

    • Rebar 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.

    • Hook Type : Select the type of hook.

    • Angle : Enter the angle of the hook.

    • Radius : Enter the radius of the hook.

    • Length : Enter the length of the hook.

  • Differenct 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.

  • 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.

  • [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.

 

Array Tab

 

  • [Arrangement]
    Sets the spacing for the rebars.

    • Number of Rebars : Enter the number of longitudinal rebars that are arranged in the spiral rebar. The rebars are spaced equally based on the number of rebars entered.

  • For an independent longitudinal rebar, the Hidden Line option can be used.

  • Hidden Line : Reference line used to draw longitudinal rebars.

    • The initial settings are set to 'Adjustable Spacing : 0.2 m', and these are typically not set separately. However, to reduce the error margin for independent longitudinal rebar shapes such as curved reinforcement, the user can reduce the size of spacing.

    • 간The spacing setting is same as the ‘Arrangement Setting’.

  • [Splice]
    Set the splice for the rebar group.

  • Edit Splice by Table : Selects the splice method. When enabled, the splice settings can be modified from the table.

    • Off : The user edits the splice through the settings.

      • Splice Type : Selects the type of rebar splice. (None / Lap / Coupler / Welding)

        • Lap : This is a multilayer splice method that connects the rebars into a continuous line of rebar.

        • Coupler : This splice method connects two rebars using a coupler.

        • Welding : This splice method connects two rebars using welding.

      • Two-Way Splice : Sets the splice direction.

        • On : Sets the splice direction towards the start and end points. This enables the Forward & Backward Tab, and each splice direction can be set.

        • Off : Sets the splice in one direction.

          • Reverse Direction : When enabled, the splice direction is reversed.

      • Bar Length : Enter the splice spacing. Different spacings can be used. The splice can be created by clicking on the representative rebar.

      • Alternate Length : Enter the spacing for 1Cycle and 2Cycle splices. This arranges the splice in a zig-zag shape.

      • Lap Length : Enter the length of the lap splice. (Only enabled for Lap Type)

      • Bar Arrangement : Set the arrangement type of overlapping splices. (Only enabled for Lap Type)

        • Left-Right : Arranged in a zig-zag form from left to right from the start point.

        • Right-Left : Arranged in a zig-zag form from right to left from the start point.

    • On : Edit the splice settings from the table.

      • Splice Table

        • The diameter for each sub-group (Rebar groups separated by splice) can be modified.

        • Direction : The direction of the splice can be set. (F : Forward, B : Backward)

  • [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.
