After placing rebar in a host, you can modify rebar properties to assign hooks.
Rebar hooks have a matrix relationship between the hook angle and rebar size. The rebar hook type comprises a defined hook angle and initial hook length. If the existing hooks are appropriate, you can start this procedure at step 7.
- In the Project Browser, navigate to FamiliesStructural RebarRebar Hook.
- Right-click a hook, and select Duplicate.
- Double-click the new copy.
- Define the Style, Hook Angle, and Extension Multiplier in the Rebar hook Lengths dialog.
- Click OK.
- Right-click the new hook type, and select Rename. Enter a name for the hook type.
You can now apply this hook type to instances within the project to ensure accurate scheduling.
- Select either a rebar instance or a rebar set. This will require a section view or unobscured rebar visibility settings.
- On the Properties palette, add hooks as needed under the Construction section:
- Select a hook type from the Hook at Start parameter.
- Select a hook type from the Hook at End parameter.
