Rectangular column reinforcement (83): Main bars tab

Use the Main bars tab to control the corner bar properties, the symmetry options, rotation, and concrete cover thickness in the Rectangular column

reinforcement (83) modeling tool.

Basic corner bar properties

Define the grade, size and bending radius of the corner bars. The active fields depend on the selected symmetry option.

Option

Grade

Description

Define the strength of the steel used in the reinforcing bars.

Size Define the diameter of the reinforcing bar.

Bending radius Define the bending radius of the corner bars.

Define the concrete cover thickness.

Symmetry options

Select the symmetry option. Using the symmetrical conditions you can define which of the corner bars have the same grade, size and bending radius properties. The corners bars that have same properties are symmetrical.
