An Introduction
Developed to meet the challenging quality requirements of large sizedprojects with frequent revisions and fast around time.projects with frequent revisions and fast around time.
Hundreds of projects from different countries across North America,Europe, Middle East and Asia are detailed using RGS-REBAR.
RGS-REBAR is simple, user friendly, and more productive detailingsoftware.
RGS-REBAR supports both Imperial and Metric detailing of many
International detailing codes like ACI (U.S),B.S (British), IS(Indian)etc.
How it Works?
RGS REBAR simulates the actual placing of Bars in the site by Preparing aProfessional Placing drawing to scale . Costly errors are avoided by visuallychecking the drawing and by preparing Bar Bending Schedule / CNC Bar listchecking the drawing and by preparing Bar Bending Schedule / CNC Bar listAutomatically.
Customized Menu, Commands, Tool bars are provided for Detailing andBar listing the Reinforcement Steel(Rebar).
Draw Rebar within the Concrete outlines.Quantity is automaticallycalculated or can be manually entered.
Extensive Validations,Automation and Artificial detailing Intelligence isembedded into the program.
Draw Reinforcements
Create reinforcement details in Five methods
•Enter leg values of the Bend shapes in the Rebar entry screen.
•Choose the required Bend shape and draw in AutoCAD with automatic
shape validation technology.

shape validation technology.
•Use our unique “Automatic Bend shape recognition technology” and just
draw any shape like a p-line and the Bend shapes are identified.
•Convert already drawn P-lines as Rebar bend shapes.
•Copy/Mirror/Array an already drawn bar to create a new bar
•Let us see how to detail a column footing from the scratch.
Automatic Special Bend creation
� Rebar follows the shape of the concrete and hence the Rebar shapes can never belimited to the standard shapes defined in the Code.
� In RGS-REBAR a special bend definition is very simple but very powerful.
� If RGS-REBAR is unable to identify a drawn shape in the database, it creates theshape automatically and defines the following in the database.
• Side, Left, right, Plan and sectional, profile views
•

• Side, Left, right, Plan and sectional, profile views
• Theoretical and cut-length formula
• Proper leg and shape validations with proper error messages
• “Guiding Shape” slides for creating the bend through the Rebar entryscreen
� The special bend defined can be copied, mirrored or stretched just like any otherstandard bend.
� The special bend definition can be shared and reused.
� Our production software “RGS REBAR SHOP” also accepts the special bendsdefined and uses it for fabrication.
Low let us see how the special Bends are defined.
• Single Range – Normal
One bar -One pitch (Spacing)
• Radial Range
One bar -One pitch (Spacing)
� RGS-REBAR provides many Range options to calculate the Rebar quantity. The user
can click any Bar and enter the Spacing and the start and end of the range with
appropriate covers. The quantity is automatically calculated. Please view some
sample videos.

One bar -One pitch (Spacing)
Alternate Bar –Double pitch (Spacing)
Multiple Bar – Multiple Pitch (Spacing))
• Single Range - Sloped
One bar -One pitch (Spacing)
Alternate Bar –Double pitch (Spacing)
Multiple Bar – Multiple Pitch (Spacing)
One bar -One pitch (Spacing)
Alternate Bar-Double pitch (Spacing)
Multiple Bar-Multiple Pitch (Spacing)
• Multiple Range

Paper size, Boundary, Number of Rows
Flexi View Port Manager
� The Placing drawing speaks the quality of work. Presenting the drawing with proper
scales is not an easy job. But it is made very much easier with our “Flexi view port
manager”.
• Paper space based
RGS CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGIES make life easy
• Paper space based
• Synchronized view ports between paper space and model space
• Scale can be changed many number of times and all the scaleable Rebar
objects are resized automatically to suit the current scale selected.
� In these days of faster construction practices, the revisions are the order of the day.
A detailer must be equipped with proper tools to incorporate revisions faster.

Quality Control Features (i)
� RGS-REBAR understands the importance of a quality detailing and hence acontinuous Research is being made on error proofing. There will be additionalfeatures on every release to bring down the error rates.
� RGS-REBAR has the following features that Controls the quality of the detailing.
• Bar properties standardization
• Steel Grade, Bar size and bend shape are standardized as per code
RGS CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGIES make life easy
• Steel Grade, Bar size and bend shape are standardized as per code
� RGS-REBAR has the following features that Controls the quality of the detailing.
• Detailing code compliance
• The Hook Values, Bending Pin Diameter, Total length calculation etc are as perCode.
� Controlling lengths can be defined as per Industry practice and can be saved witha password and reused.
• RGS REBAR has automatic shape validation. Please watch this to seehow the detailer tries to deviate while drawing the bend shape and howRGS-REBAR automatically corrects it.
� Bar, View, Callout, Label etc are synchronized
• Any length is modified in one view, all other views are automatically
Quality Control Features (ii)
RGS CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGIES make life easy
• Any length is modified in one view, all other views are automaticallyupdated
� Profile View to check congestion in junctions –
“Picture of a Column Beam junction.”
� Place Elevation
• This feature is deigned to control many instances where the Elevationmarks are correct but the actual height is wrong. So the detail lookscorrect but actually is wrong. Please watch this video to see how thePlace elevation option is used to control these errors.
� Automatic counting of concrete elements
• This feature is designed to control the issues involving counting andpreparing the Takeoff (Barlists for CNC machines), when the same detail isused in many places. For example, if there are three pile caps used inmultiple locations, there are two practical issues,
• Counting the number of places
Quality Control Features (iii)
RGS CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGIES make life easy
Counting the number of places
• Preparing a partial Takeoff for CNC only on selected locations
• RGS-REBAR allows the user to create element marks and associate theRebars to it. The element mark can be inserted in a place and can becopied to multiple locations. The number of places is automaticallycounted based on the element marks placed.
• RGS-REBAR allows to takeoff for selected Concrete elements also. Thisrelieves the user of the tedious and the error prone methods of Takeoffpreparation.
� Audit
• The auditing feature of RGS-REBAR is very useful. The following checking can bemade against the drawing automatically and the errors are notified and shown ondifferent colors.
• Bars without Callout, Quantity or Bar mark
Quality Control Features (iv)
RGS CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGIES make life easy
• Bars without Callout, Quantity or Bar mark
• Callout without Bars, Callout placed away from the bar
• Views without Bars
• Check the maximum length, validity of Bar mark
• Check and automatically Repair database
Highly Customizable
� Default settings are provided, for each country based on the popular detailing practices.
Customization is a choice and can be done if required.
� For U.S market, a standard detailing setup and one New York detailing setup are provided as
