Name:

User-defined name used for element design.

Description:

User-defined name that can be used for labels in element plans or lists (not implemented yet).

Search criterion:

By entering a search criterion for reinforcement parameters during design, you can filter the reinforcement types. For example, you can use reinforcement types complying with the search criterion "Q" only.

You can also use the search criterion to limit the length by entering "L= " along with a value. If you enter "L=2", this reinforcement type is only used up to a panel length of 2 m. Select this function to use several reinforcement types with the same as-value for different panel lengths. It is assumed that the reinforcement types are created in ascending as-values.

'Bottom reinf.' tab

The values you enter here apply to the bottom reinforcement layer.

'Top reinf.' tab

The values you enter here apply to the top reinforcement layer.

The following applies to both tabs:

Longitudinal bars:

Selection box for the diameter and steel grade. You can specify up to 3 or 2 longitudinal bar diameters (layers) for the bottom and top reinforcement in a panel.

Only the diameters are shown which are assigned to the steel grade in question. If no steel grade has been selected then all diameters are shown for selection.

Cross bars:

Selection box for the diameter and steel grade. You can specify up to 2 cross bar diameters (layers) for the bottom and top reinforcement in a panel. The first layer is mostly used for spacers (see NC generator configuration), the second to place the required amount of cross bar reinforcement.

Only the diameters are shown which are assigned to the steel grade in question. If no steel grade has been selected then all diameters are shown for selection.

Distribution:

Distances to or pattern of the bars; these values usually include the edge offset and distribution (for example, 50,200*60 = 50 mm edge offset, then 200 mm up to 60 times). You can enter a reference letter for the placement mode (pattern): The formula fills a box, which is limited to 200 entries. In other words, each layer can have up to 200 bars. If the formula exceeds 200 entries, the panel is not filled in its entirety. (For example: 30.50*199 places cross bars up to max. 9.98 m (199*5 + 3-cm edge offset). A 10.5m long panel is too long).

N: (Normal): (does not have to be specified) start of placement from one side to the end of the panel.

S: (Symmetry): start of placement from middle outward to both sides.

E: (Edge): start of placement first from one side to the middle and then from the other side to the middle.

U: number of bars under the lattice girders. The number must be less than 10 and entered as a negative value.

E: (Equal): The bars are evenly distributed between the two edge bars. The spacing is calculated automatically and is limited upwards by the specified maximum distance. The elements are always fully reinforced, i.e. specification of a maximum number of pieces as with the other distribution algorithms is superfluous and ignored if necessary. It is possible to define the edge offset to be taken into account (right and left) by setting the edge offset (value up to the center of the bar). If this is not defined then the concrete cover applies.
If there are several diameters, the bar distribution is first calculated for the first bar layer. Subsequently, every 2nd bar or every 2nd and 3rd bar is replaced.

Examples of bar distribution

Use commas to separate the values.

The first number shows the edge offset or first offset; the other numbers indicate the spacing between axes. Enter * to multiply. You can also use parentheses.

You must enter a total for the number of bars such that the maximum panel width or length can be fully covered. The number of repetitions is irrelevant; the program simply stops at the panel end.

as-value:

as-values of the reinforcement type. The program searches the reinforcement types for the as-value of the bottom reinforcement, if you reinforce according to "as required".

"->Fact." tab

Assignment of entries to factories.

The selected entry applies to the selected factories only. If no factory is selected, the entry applies to all factories.
