Create by Constraints

Create by Constraints

Create rebar by picking constraint targets.

Create reinforcement directly in the 3D view by picking the constraint targets such as covers or existing bars.

A wide range of rebar configurations can be created with this flexible new command. You define the geometric relationships, GP Rebar handles the precise placement.

  • Use the 3D view: Just click through your targets — no more switching between 2D views to make a single set of bars. 
  • Prefer 2D: also supported.
  • Use assembly views: Add reinforcement to the precast unit directly on the shop drawings, without the green contour edit mode.
  • Correct rebar shape: No need to remember shape codes. Your loaded shape families are recognized.
  • Follows for your intent: Bars are constrained to the faces or rebars you select, giving you far better updates when the model changes.
  • Create Similar for rebar: Pre-select an existing bar to reuse its properties instantly.
