Get outer lines of rebar curves

[rinag]

Hi,
I’m using a python code to create a 2d rebar from rebars ,
the code takes the center line of rebar curve ,
is there a way to take the outer line instead of center one?

[Deniz_Maral]

maybe offset the curve?

[rinag]

that means i should check always what offset value should be accroding to rebar diameter

You can create a list that lists the diameters and use it as offset-distance. Otherwise there is not any method in API or I can not see it…
