Date of creation of the data record.

Name:
User-defined name, which is displayed in the list box of wall element design when you create basic reinforcement based on the reinforcement type.
Description:
User-defined name that can be included in labels for element plans or lists/schedules (not yet implemented).
Search criterion:
By specifying a search criterion in the element parameters during design, you can filter the reinforcement types. Consequently, you can narrow down the reinforcement types to those complying with the search criterion "M", for example.
'Reinforcement data' tab
Longitudinal bars:
Selection box of the diameter catalog. You can specify up to 3 longitudinal bar diameters (layers) for the reinforcement in an element.
Cross bars:
Selection box of the diameter catalog. You can specify up to 3 cross bar diameters (layers) for the reinforcement in an element. The first layer is mostly used for spacers (see NC generator configuration), the second to place the required amount of cross bar reinforcement.
Distribution:
Offsets or pattern of the bars; usually includes the edge offset and distribution (e.g., 50,200*60 = 50mm edge offset, then 200mm up to 60 times). You can enter a reference letter for the placement mode (pattern): the formula fills a data entry field, 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. 9.98m (199*5 +3cm edge offset). A 10.5m long panel would be too long).
N: (Normal): (does not have to be specified) start of placement from one side to the end of the panel.
S: (Symmetrical): start of placement from middle outward to both sides.
K: (Edge): start of placement first from one side to the middle and then from the other side to the middle.
Z: number of bars between the lattice girders. The number must be less than 10.
U: number of bars under the lattice girders. The number must be less than 10 and entered as a negative value.
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 have to enter a total for the number of bars such that the maximum panel width or length can be fully covered. It does not matter if you have too many repetitions; the program simply stops at the panel end.
Offset:
Spacing value included in the element plan table and in lists/schedules. If necessary, the reinforcement percentage is also calculates based on this value.
Height:
Layer 1 - 3: you can use the height to specify how reinforcement is placed (outside or inside) for each reinforcement group.
Meshes:
Selection box of the mesh catalog.
For the meshes of the inner layer of reinforcement, the diagonal is automatically turned before it is created.
as longit/transv.: [cm² /m]
Cross sectional area of longitudinal or transverse reinforcement. You can have the cross sectional area calculated automatically by clicking the 
Calculator symbol at the bottom edge of the tab. (The symbol is not available if the current data record has not been changed).
-'>Assignment' tab
Assignment of the individual entries to the relevant wall types..
The selected entry applies to the selected wall types, which are highlighted in blue. If no wall type is selected, the entry is valid for all the wall types.
'->Fact.' tab
Assignment of the individual entries to the relevant factories.
The selected entry is applicable to the selected factories. If no factory is selected, the entry is valid for all the factories.
