Syntax

C#

public static RebarFreeFormCreationResult CreateFreeForm(
	Document doc,
	RebarBarType barType,
	Element host,
	IList<IList<Curve>> curves,
	RebarStyle style
)

Parameters

doc  Document

A document.

barType  RebarBarType

A RebarBarType element that defines bar diameter, bend radius and material of the rebar.

host  Element

The element to which the rebar belongs. The element must support rebar hosting.

curves  IList<IList<Curve>>

Each array of curves represent a bar in the set.

style  RebarStyle

The usage of the bar, "standard" or "stirrup/tie".

Return Value

RebarFreeFormCreationResult
Returns a class that stores the newly created Free Form Rebar and the error code. If there is any error, the Rebar will be null.

Exceptions

Remarks

The created rebar will have curves.Count bars. The layout will be Single if curves.Count is 1, otherwise will be Fixed Number and will not be changeable. Setting a new list of curves will only change the number of bars in set.

This function can fail due to following reasons:

• One or more of the input curves was null.
• One or more of the input curves was unbounded.
• Curves doesn't form a valid curve loop, it forms 0, 2 or more curve loops.
• A rebar constructed from curves can't be bent according to the bending radius.
