Maximum length of reinforcing bars


Good morning, I am trying to make a Visual Script taking into account the maximum length of reinforcing bars.
I am able to do it by placing the reinforcement on a surface, but I cannot do it on reinforcement bars, placed in a rotating way.

Thank you very much.

I don't really understand your problem here. The rebar placement itself doesn't generate bar shape. Therefore, did you mean, the way how to create a bar shape won't be able to take a pre-defined maximum length into account?

Perhaps, you can explained your question a little bit more in detail (e.g., with some examples), it will help us to understand that properly.

Good morning.
I would like to know how to set a maximum bar length. Once this maximum length has been set, if it is exceeded, a new bar will be generated and the corresponding overlap will be created.
The problem I have is that when I make a 15 metre column, for example, it generates a bar with this length instead of splitting it in two.
Thank you very much.
Best regards

Although I'm not really familiar with all rebar function, I don't think there is a built-in function for a bar shape node to do that.
