Sửa lỗi rebar is placed completely outside of its host năm 2024
This article presents ten tips and tricks for configuring your rebar project in Revit. Topics include working with rebar shapes and rebar constraints; techniques for presenting rebar in construction drawings and extracting fabrication data using schedules and tags; and best practices for placement and adjustment of free-form and shape-driven rebar, area, and path reinforcement.

General Rebar BehaviorThis first section will cover tips for how rebar works in general. This information is applicable to most types of reinforcement in Revit. 1. Include Hooks or End Treatments in the Rebar Shape DefinitionLet’s start with two project-level settings that determine how rebar behaves when adding hooks or end treatments. These can be modified only when there is no rebar placed in the project. You probably have this already set up in the template you are using, so you may not need to bother with it. To change these options:
Here’s a simple example to check how this options works:
In cases where rebar is not detailed (annotated in various views), you can select all the bars, maybe with hosts and cut (Ctrl+X), change this setting and paste (Ctrl+V) back into the project. 2. Valid Host for RebarIn order for an element to be a valid rebar host, it needs to belong to a Structural category and have the Material for Model Behavior in the family set to Concrete, Precast concrete, or Other. Category
Generic model elements, family-based or model-in-place, regular or adaptive, can also host reinforcement if the Can Host Rebar parameter in the properties palette is checked. To do this:
To check inside the project if an element is a valid host, you can do the following:
3. Find the Rebar HostWhen you select a rebar, its host will show the concrete cover. This is easy enough when the rebar is placed inside the host and both are visible. However, rebar may end up far away from its host. To find the rebar host, starting with Revit 2021.1:
The right click option is available for area and path reinforcement as well, and you can select either the boundary or the bars inside the system. 4. Control the Concrete Cover by Element FaceThe concrete cover in Revit is a property of the structural host. Rebar snaps to the concrete cover, ensuring that bars will be protected from corrosion when fitted on-site. You can quickly set the cover for various element faces (top, bottom, other faces), depending on the element type, from the cover parameters in the properties palette. To set the cover for the entire element or just a specific face, use the Cover tool:
5. Edit the Appearance of Concrete Cover LinesYou can edit the appearance of the cover lines for the entire project. To do this, go to Manage > Object Styles > Annotation Objects tab, find the Rebar Cover References category and edit the line weight, color, and pattern. 6. Presenting 3D RebarYou can get a realistic representation of rebar in 3D views by setting the bars to be displayed as solid. There is a specific setting for rebar called view visibility states. To also distinguish between bars, I recommend you use filters based on a relevant criteria. In this example I used the rebar type as a criteria. To maintain consistency of all the 3D rebar views, I also recommend you save the view with filters as a template that you can then apply to other views. You still need to set the solid view of rebar for all the views where you want the bars to be shown as solid. To avoid showing the bars over the host, I recommend you uncheck show unobscured and make the host transparent. Here are some steps you can follow to achieve this:
In the Graphics Display Options, there is also the option to Show Edges. When unchecked no element in the view shows edges. This may be a good option for rebar, but may not show the concrete elements as expected. Below is an example of applying the color to just the fill versus applying it to the fill and the projection lines. 7. Setting the Color for Rebar Cut by ViewsWhen cut by a view (section, plan, elevation) rebar shows a filled circle representing the bar diameter. Unlike other elements in Revit, this does not have a fill pattern representation, so adding a fill pattern and color will not do anything. To add color to the circle representing the bars, you need to set a color property for the cut lines. You can use whatever method applies to what you are trying to achieve, overriding by element or category or using filters to add color based on rules. 8. Count the Number of Bars per HostYou can use the Host Mark and Host Count parameters of rebar to schedule the number of bars per each identical element. To do this:
9. Show the Shape Image in SchedulesJust like the other types of families in Revit, you can use the Image type parameter of rebar shapes to add a shape image for displaying in the schedule. To do this:
Displaying images for each rebar instance is something that could be automated through the API or using Dynamo, to assign an image to the instance parameter Image of each bar. This means that for each bar, a shape with actual dimensions could be displayed in the schedule. Manually this doesn’t really make sense, as it is prone to errors. 10. Select / Delete Bars by Rebar Number Using FiltersYou can use schedules as an easy to delete bars with a series of rebar numbers or other properties. To do this:
This method of selecting bars applies to uniform rebar sets. Bars in varying rebar sets cannot be currently selected this way.
