Summary
- View or edit property information for classification, geometry, analysis, quantity settings of the Spiral Rebar Group.
How to Run
- Select the Spiral 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.
Note
Rebar Specification
[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.
[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’.
Array Tab
[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.
Ex) 3@200, 400, 5@150
[Actual Spacing]
Displays the actual spacing used to arrange the rebars.
[Splice]
Set the splice for the regar 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.
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.
Lap Length : Enter the length of the lap splice. (Only enabled for Lap Type)
On : Edit the splice settings from the table.
Splice Table
The diameter for each sub-group (Rebar groups separated by splice) can be modified.
[Variable Rebar Name]
Sets the name rule within the rebar group.
Splice Group : Set the name of each regar group according to the splice group.
