The program automatically calculates the length of the joint reinforcement from the panel dimensions. You can enter a support length of the joint reinforcement at the keyboard.

Use this to define the bar shape. Select a shape in the list presented. The position of the bends is dependent on the concrete cover defined beforehand. If you enter the concrete cover at the top, create a bar in the top layer. The bends presented point downwards. If you entered the concrete cover at the bottom, the bends point upwards.
