Hi All,

I’m trying to create a wall reinforcement using a custom rebar shape. I’m using Dynamo 4 rebar and BIM4Struc packages, but I can’t find a node qich select the rebar shape to use.

Does anyone came with some solution?

Thanks in advance.

What do you mean by “qich Select”?

Custom node works as expected. I don’t see any errors.

Hi @Kulkul,

I meant “which select”.

I found those nodes that you are indicating, but my guess was pointing to a node like “Rebar.ByCurve” that turns the curves into a rebar element, so you could select the rebar shape to use.

My main issue was to create a rebar that has seismic hooks in both side, so when I use the “standard” style, it doesn’t allow this type of hooks. Now I’m working with polylines, created from a couple of curves and using the “stirrup” style with seismic hooks. I have to work a little in the custom shape created… but almost there. When I’ll have it I’ll post it.

Meanwhile, if you know about a node like described, I’ll be very glad.

Thanks in advance!.

Cheers
