Renumbering of reinforcement position

Use this option to change the numbering of reinforcement. The option is available:

To renumber the reinforcement position, choose the element or group of elements whose numbers will be changed. Renumbering is carried out in an active document.

After generating a final drawing (printout), the numbering in the model is changed automatically. The printout preserves the consistency of the numbering; the consistency of numbering in a printout implies checking if a given layout does not include different reinforcement elements with the same position number.

The default work mode selection of the option causes a single change of a position number of the indicated reinforcement. Additionally, there are the following modes of renumbering available in the program:

Command line:

Select/enter reinforcement no. or [Shift / Consolidation / Identical reinforcement]:

Indicate the reinforcement description (reinforcement with position) graphically or enter a position number

New reinforcement no.:

Enter a new position number to verify if the number entered already exists. If yes, then it is verified if both numbers are assigned to identical reinforcement. If not, then a warning displays and a new reinforcement number should be entered again. After completing the renumbering, tables are updated automatically.

Shift

Shift of numbering from position <1>: 5

By default, a first reinforcement position (the one with the lowest number) is automatically specified. If a different position number (higher number) is entered, then operation of renumbering is performed for all the positions whose numbers are higher than the specified position number (and for the position with the number entered).

Note: The specified position number (in this case 5) must be included in a drawing. If such a position number does not exist, then a warning is displayed and a new position number should be entered.

Position [5] will be changed to: 13

Enter a new position number; after completing the renumbering, tables are updated automatically.

Example of shift operation:

Consolidation

Renumbering from position <1>: 5

By default, a first reinforcement position (the one with the lowest number) is automatically specified. If a different position number (higher number) is entered, then operation of renumbering is performed for all the positions whose numbers are higher than the specified position number (and for the position with the number entered).

Note: The specified position number (in this case 5) must be included in a drawing. If such a position number does not exist, then a warning is displayed and a new position number should be entered

After completing the renumbering, tables are updated automatically.

Example of consolidation operation:

Identical reinforcement

Renumbering from position <1>: 5

By default, a first reinforcement position (the one with the lowest number) is automatically specified. If a different position number (higher number) is entered, then operation of renumbering (finding identical reinforcement) is performed for all the positions whose numbers are higher than the specified position number (and for the position with the number entered).

Note: The specified position number (in this case 5) must be included in a drawing. If such a position number does not exist, then a warning is displayed and a new position number should be entered.

Once the search is completed, the program displays a report presenting changes made in position numbering. Changes in position numbering are always made in such a manner that a higher number is changed to a lower one.

Example of the operation of finding identical reinforcement:
