    Description

    On every type of project, the adoption of a transparent and easy-to-apply Building Information Modeling (BIM) workflow is the key to success. This also helps reduce the risk of errors and it provides huge productivity ratio improvements while making the design and engineering processes more efficient. To reach this objective, the engineer and the technicians, using Revit Structure software, need tools capable of automating 3D rebar generation (including semi-automated detailed drawings and schedules), but with the ability to make design-driven decisions for the reinforced concrete members in real time. In this class you will learn how GRAITEC’s Revit-software-based 3D rebar design tools deliver real benefits by consolidating design decisions based on local codes to accurately create 3D rebar in Revit software on the fly with localized families. These tools also produce automatic reinforcement drawings and schedules, published to the cloud or through Autodesk 360 cloud-computing platform ready for fabrication by the rebar manufacturer.

    Key Learnings

    • Learn how to start from a Revit model, which includes the geometry of reinforced concrete elements, the loads, and also the FEM results
    • Learn how to complete structural design assumptions according to different design codes and discover how to publish this information in A360
    • Learn how to design reinforced concrete members in Revit Structure and see how to get the design reports and post process the results
    • Learn how to automatically get the 3D structural rebar with the corresponding views and drawing sheets published in A360
