![]() Insta-bar prompts us to select the foundation.Īs we want to place rebars in this foundation & column,įor this second run select this two diameter option. Input 8 & 100 as the stirrup bar diameter & the distance between the stirrups. Only the main stirrup is placed in this region. This is the stirrup & this is the distance between them. Now, In this area, set the setting for the column rebars. The rule is, Insta-bar will only accept an even number of rebars.Īnd if you keep these zero values as it is, the column will have four bars. Similarly, input 10 as the number of bars in the “Y” direction. You can see in this graphics window they are distributed as 6 each on the two sides. Let the number of rebars in the “X” direction be 12. This is going to remain fixed forever for the project. If your design has a mix of two diameters, select this option.įor this demonstration, we select this first option. In this new dialogue box set the settings for the column starter bars. Now InstaBar prompts us to select the column & then the beam. You can see this message on the status bar. InstaBar prompts us to select the foundation. Let us see what happens after we hit the okay button. In case if it is a combined footing, that means there are more than one columns on a single footing select the multiple options. That means the column starter bars would be placed along with the foundation rebars. But, in the case of the reinforced column, you keep this box selected. So that you can place rebars only in the foundations. In case you have a structural steel column, uncheck this box. These are the settings for the top mesh rebars. You have to input the height of the bottom pedestal in this box. Now, select this box if your design has the top mesh. I choose 8 as the diameter, distance 125 & two as the numbers of the face bar. Placed on all four sides of the foundation. ![]() This straight rebar is shape “M” zero & this bar with hooks on both sides is shape “M” zero two.įor this demonstration, I select this option. You can see automatically these boxes are populated with the same value. I am going to set the diameter as 16, layout fix & quantity 6. ![]() In this diagram, this is the steel in the “x” direction & this steel in the “Y” direction. Steel in “X” direction & steel in “Y” direction. Set the bottom cover to 30 & side cover 20. These two text boxes set the cover for the rebars. That helps us to extract the quantities according to the schedule. I am going to apply the phase property to the elements. To begin with, I am going to place two foundations, two columns & a beam using InstaCrete. Then we will extract the rebar quantities. We are going to place rebars in the foundations & columns. Today we are going to use our Revit plug-in Insta-bar. ![]()
