Attach a reinforcement object to a concrete part
When you create a reinforcement object, such as a bar group, rebar set, or mesh, Tekla Structures attaches it to the concrete part that you have selected to reinforce. Later in some cases, you might need to attach the reinforcement object to another concrete part manually. The attached reinforcement objects follow the part if the part is moved, copied, or deleted.
Note:
Only attached reinforcement objects are shown in cast unit drawings and reports with the part.
Note that if you have manually attached single bars in rebar sets to parts in Tekla Structures 2022 SP2 or older versions, using property modifiers for manual attachment does not work with these bars. To revert all manually attached bars in rebar sets to automatic attachment, select all the rebar sets in the model and use the Detach from part command.
Detach a reinforcement object from a concrete part
If needed, you can detach a reinforcement object from a concrete part.
-
Select the reinforcement object that you want to detach.
To detach single rebar set bars, first select the rebar set, then the property modifier that affects the bars that you want to detach.
-
Right-click and select Detach from part.
The reinforcement object is detached from the part.
Note that if you detach a rebar set or a property modifier, the bars in the rebar set are reattached automatically if they are inside a concrete part.
Tip:
Alternatively, you can use the ribbon when you manually attach or detach reinforcement objects.
-
On the Rebar tab, click or .
-
Select the reinforcement object that you want to attach or detach.
-
If you are attaching the reinforcement object, select the part to which you want to attach the reinforcement object.
