Footing Rebar - Isolated footing reinforcement

Footing Rebar automates reinforcement generation for isolated footings in Revit. The tool lets users configure bottom and top meshes, bar directions, covers, and layer assignment to speed up structural detailing.

General Description

The add-in works on one or more selected isolated footings and creates rebar sets from a parametric configuration. Users define cover type, bar setup, spacing, hooks, and whether the footing uses only a bottom mesh or both bottom and top meshes.

Key Features

• Isolated footing selection: Processes one or more compatible structural footings.
• Mesh configuration: Supports bottom mesh only or bottom plus top mesh.
• Directional control: Configure bars, spacing, and hooks in two directions.
• Layer assignment: Can write layer values into a selected parameter.
• Parametric output: Creates reinforcement sets based on valid footing geometry.

Usage Procedure

1. Open Footing Rebar and adjust the profile or reinforcement parameters.
2. Define cover, bars, spacing, and mesh configuration.
3. Choose whether you need only bottom mesh or both bottom and top mesh.
4. Run the tool and select one or more isolated footings.
5. Review the final message to confirm how many rebar sets were created.
