Hi,
I am only on my second project on RST, even though I have been "playing around" a bit before. At the moment I am doing a 4 story apartment block.
What I am curious about is what is the preferable method of creating reinforcement plans and sections. The way I see it is a few different options of doing this:
Using the Revit tools to create and annotate the slab/beam reo. The problem is if you use the new Place Rebar tool - reo is not called up with an extension line when you tag the reo.
Using the Drafting tools and do it old autocad way with drawing lines on plans and section and "manually" call up the reo on the plans.
For beams are you using the Beam reo tool in the Revit Extensions? If so are you "exporting" the beam elevation to Autocad (creating a Reinforcement drawing via the extensions) and then re-imported it to a drafting view in Revit? Or are simply taking a section through the beam to call up the reo? If you have a custom beam family with a set down the set down is not taken in to account when you use the Extensions - are there any work around for that?
Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks
Jonas
