Reinforcement workbench icon

Introduction

The Reinforcement workbench is an external workbench which provides tools for Reinforcement Generation and Detailing. This workbench provides interface and presets for the creation of common rebar types. And tools to generate rebars bill of material, rebar shape cut list, bar bending schedule and rebars drawing and dimension.

Installing

The Reinforcement workbench is not bundled with the default FreeCAD package, but can easily be installed via the Addon Manager. Install it from Tools → Addon manager → Reinforcement. The Reinforcement workbench code is hosted and developed on github and can also be installed manually by copying it into FreeCAD's MOD directory.

Tools

Reinforcement Generation

  • Straight Rebar: Creates a Straight reinforcement bar in a selected structural element
  • UShape Rebar: Creates a UShape reinforcement bar in a selected structural element
  • LShape Rebar: Creates a LShape reinforcement bar in a selected structural element
  • Bent Shape Rebar: Creates a Bent Shape reinforcement bar in a selected structural element
  • Stirrup Rebar: Creates a Stirrup reinforcement bar in a selected structural element
  • Helical Rebar: Creates a Helical reinforcement bar in a selected structural element
  • Rebar: Creates a custom reinforcement bar in a selected structural element using a sketch

Reinforcement Detailing


External workbenches

FreeCAD workbenches are easy to program in Python, there are therefore many people developing additional workbenches outside of the FreeCAD main developers.

The external workbenches page has some information and tutorials on some of them, and the FreeCAD Addons project aims at gathering them and making them easily installable from within FreeCAD.

New workbenches are in development, stay tuned!
