If you have added coupler or end anchor components to reinforcing bars, the
UDA values are controlled by the coupler or the end anchor components and their properties. If you delete the coupler or the end anchor component, the
UDAs defined by those components are not cleared automatically. Use Update
rebar attributes to clear the obsolete attribute values.

Description
The values of all coupler and end anchor UDAs of the selected reinforcing bars in the model.
The values of all coupler and end anchor UDAs of all reinforcing bars in the model.
Deletes the values of all coupler and end anchor UDAs of all reinforcing bars on the selected rows.
Only the obsolete coupler UDAs of the reinforcing bar are deleted.
You can select multiple rows by holding down Ctrl or
Shift.
Select this check box if you want to show only reinforcing bars that have values in their coupler or end anchor UDAs.
After you have selected the check box, click Selected or All to refresh the table.

Rebar Coupler and Anchor Tools is a set of four components that help to model and manage
• reinforcing bar couplers that connect two bars
• end anchors that are devices at the unreserved end of the bar.
The following components are part of Rebar Coupler and Anchor Tools:
•
Reinforcement 434 Beam, column, and slab reinforcement

In addition, you can manage the user-defined attributes (UDAs) of the Rebar
Coupler and Anchor Tools with the
Rebar Coupler and Anchor Tools: Update rebar attributes (page 433)
component.
Auto attribute files
The attribute table files are text files that can locate in any of the system folders, or in a model folder. You can have as many attribute table files as you need. There are different attribute tables for end anchors (one input reinforcing bar) and coupler components (two input reinforcing bars). The extensions for attribute table files are
• .couplers.csv for Rebar coupler and Split rebar and add coupler components
• .anchors.csv for Rebar end anchor component.
The attribute table contains a header line, including the column names and one or more table rows containing the attribute values. Columns are either selector columns or attribute columns.
The selector column names are Primary.Size, Primary.Grade,
Secondary.Size, and Secondary.Grade.
The attribute columns contain the attribute value that is the name given in the header row. The component attribute values given in the table row are used whenever the component input (primary + secondary for Rebar coupler and secondary for Rebar end anchor) matches with the selector values.
Go to Tekla Warehouse to get auto attribute files for your project.
Custom part mapping
When you create the coupler or the end anchors as custom parts, the properties in the Numbering series and Attributes sections can be filled from the custom part settings if you have named the properties in a certain way. The following example shows the mapping between the Numbering
series and Attributes properties and the custom part properties.
Reinforcement 435 Beam, column, and slab reinforcement
