The main features are:
Generates sorted, weighed and accumulated bar lists.
Prints labels to be tied to the rebar bundles.
Supports Imperial, SoftMetric and European Metric Measuring Systems.
Whether bar lists and labels are sorted (and in what order), weighed and/or accumulated is decided by the user when they are printed.
Stores standard bend shapes in databases for easy, automatic access. An initial collection is included which can be viewed in the samples page.
It is possible to graphically define placing requirements. All rebar required in a structure can come together in the bar list and in the same label, in a high-quality placing drawing. bar list and label paper sizes can be increased to allow high complexity structures to be described clearly. These structures can be stored in databases so that it is not necessary to redraw them each time.
Calculates bending dimensions from other known dimensions.
Calculates straight and bent varying bars.
Whether to apply bending deductions to shearing length and/or weight is decided by the user when bar lists, labels or statistics are printed.
The length/weight relation and bending deductions can be easily changed and can be configured differently for different machines.
Rebar Orders are organized by projects and units. It is easy to obtain a list and total weight for all the orders in a project, unit, type or date range.
Generates statistical reports. It can be known for instance how much has been bent and how much has remained straight for each diameter and machine, and that in a given project, unit, type or date range.
The previous features are included in the 60-day trial shareware version, which you can download freely. The following, export / import and network sharing, are only available to registered users.
