Copy Reinforcement Options
Define the logical framework for cloning rebar configurations between structural hosts.
Copy Methodology (Consideration)
Determine the relationship between the source and destination rebar, defining how geometry is verified and typed.
Standard Copy
Typical
Applies existing rebar types to the destination host, assuming geometric similarity between elements.
- Ignore Geometry Verification: Skips dimensional checks (use with caution).
Adaptive Copy
Generate New Detail Type
Creates adaptive rebar types tailored specifically to the destination host's unique geometry.
- Single Type: Consolidated type generation.
- Multiple Types: Distinct types per element.
Geometry Handling Details
This section outlines how the tool handles dimensional variations when cloning reinforcement strings.
| Option | Host Condition | Workflow Description |
|---|---|---|
| Typical | Identical/Similar Dimensions | Efficiently maps existing rebar sets. Fails if dimensions vary significantly without the geometry override. |
| Generate New Type | Varying Geometry | The tool reads the destination geometry and generates new rebar types to perfectly fit the unique host shape. |
