Reinforced Concrete in Autodesk Revit - Part 1 - Rebar Cover

I would like to start a series of tutorials to help you get started with reinforced concrete structures in Autodesk Revit. At the very beginning please download a dataset to have a starting point of the series.

Autodesk Revit software provides tools for modeling 3D concrete reinforcement in an advanced Building Information Modeling (BIM) environment. This series provides insight into how to use these tools in the best way for creating complete, detailed, and accurate reinforcement design. You will learn how to use the standard reinforcement modeling, drawing, and scheduling tools.

In the first series of steps, you set up rebar covers. 

1. Open …\Concrete Frame.rvt file.

Reinforcements are added to concrete structural members based on the design reinforcement. In Autodesk Revit, you can add reinforcements to concrete structural members such as floors, beams, columns, and others by using various tools.

In Revit you can model regular reinforcement and wire fabric reinforcement. There are a number of categories assigned for these reinforcement types, and they all behave and interconnect differently.

Before we actually start using the rebar tools we should have a short look at an important setting for all our reinforcement: The Rebar Cover Settings.

The cover settings define the offset distance of the bars from the face of the rebar host.

2. Go to the Structure tab and locate the Reinforcement panel. Expand the drop-down box and click on Rebar Cover Settings.

3. Rebar Cover Settings is a simple dialogue where you can add all the different covers you need in the project. Find the existing XD1\XC3/4 (C32/40,0.55,320) cover and change its value to 30 mm and click OK.

4. On the Structure tab click the Cover button.

The Cover tool is used to edit the cover settings in the entire length of the host of a rebar. The host of a rebar can be a beam, column, slab, floor, or a generic object.

5. On the Options Bar, click Pick Elements to pick an entire element.

6. Select all beam elements which will be modified and change their cover to XD1\XC3/4 (C32/40,0.55,320) then press the Esc key.

7. Select one of the beams and review the cover settings in the Properties dialog.

It’s important to get the cover settings right because all (well, almost all) modeled reinforcements are slaves to the cover. The Cover Settings can of course be changed in your model over time, but experience shows that this can disrupt your model and schedules.

HoleBASE SI Extension for AutoCAD Civil 3D - Webinar

Our geotechnical industry partners, Keynetix, after man years of re-development the new look HoleBASE SI Extension for AutoCAD Civil 3D has been released to all users and to celebrate its launch they are doing 30 minutes of training and questions on line.

(This is an extended version of the Autodesk Geotechnical Module which is available via Keynetix)

 

This webinar will be an excellent introduction to the powerful features now included in the AutoCAD Civil 3D Extension and will be a valuable webinar if you are:-

1.            Currently using the previous release of the HoleBASE SI Extension for AutoCAD Civil

2.            Using the Autodesk Geotechnical Module and looking to have more functionality

3.            Currently using Civil 3D for your BIM integration and need to integrate subsurface data.

During this webinar you will learn how to:-

•             Create 3D borehole representations

•             Create AutoCAD Civil surfaces based on any parameter in the database

•             Create dynamic sections

•             Create contour plots and point maps based on any number of criteria
