Rebar Bending Detail in Schedule Options

Use the dedicated options menu to view and modify bending detail options, including what dimensions are shown for the bending detail or what dimension styles are used.

To access the Rebar Bending Detail Options dialog in the Schedule properties:
  1. Open the schedule (double-click its name in the Project Browser or click its tab).
  2. In the schedule properties palette, under Other, click Edit next to Formatting.
  3. In the Schedule Properties dialog Formatting tab, select the Bending Detail field and click Edit next to the Field properties option.
The Bending Detail Options dialog opens.

Option Description
Graphics
Rebar shape parameters Specifies if the bending detail shows the values of segment lengths and angles, or the parameter names assigned in the rebar shape family.


Line style Specifies the line style used for the bending detail.
Representation Specifies if the bending detail for closed contour bars is shown the same as the rebar, with offset segments, or as unfolded.
