CADS Rebar Extensions for Revit
A library of detailing tools for common structural elements.
Introduction
Automatically generate reinforcement for a range of standard concrete structures such as beams, columns, footings, pile caps, piles, retaining walls, slab corners & walls.
Simple to use: select the structural concrete elements to be reinforced, launch the appropriate tool, or select the automatic generation tool. Specify the parameters to be used when reinforcing the structure. Supported concrete elements include beams, columns, continuous footings, parapets, pile caps, concrete piles, retaining walls, slab corners, slab openings, spread footings, wall corners, and walls.
Familiar Technology
The Rebar Extensions were originally developed by Autodesk® but due to their close partnership with CADS, they have asked us to develop and maintain the extensions. These extensions work with CADS RC3D for Revit which is a Revit extension designed to enhance the placement, annotation, and bar marking of reinforcing steel in all kinds of RC structures.
Reinforcement Structure Examples
Features
- A library of menu driven detailing tools for many common structural elements such as beams, columns and pile caps.
- Includes a reinforcement clash detection tool.
- Simply fill in the details via a user friendly menu, including the geometry and reinforcement type and diameter, then click OK to complete the detail!
- CADS RC3D takes the 3D modeling functionality of Revit to the next level allowing rebar to be divided up into particle groups (bar ranges), bar marks to be created and managed, and detailed reinforcement (shop) drawings to be created with single click!
- Bar bending schedules are automatically created and material lists are exported to external production software file formats such as BVBs, aSa, Soulé, and Excel.
- CADS Markup also comes with CADS RC3D and allows structural engineers to annotate a Revit model with reinforcement information to convey the design intent to reinforcement detailers effectively avoiding the process of manually marking reinforcement regions on printed general arrangement drawings.
“During our trial with Revit 2024, we found your plug‑in extremely useful, as it has significantly reduced our working time and improved efficiency.”
