RebarCAD (CADS RC India)

RebarCAD (CADS-RC India) supports detailing to Indian standard IS 2502:1963 (Reaffirmed 1990 and 1999)

It also includes a number of shapes to meet the extra requirements for seismic detailing to IS 13920:1993 Edition 1.2 (2002-03)

Running in AutoCAD, RebarCAD has been the market leading rebar detailing software in the UK and around the world for more than 10 years.  RebarCAD has been developed to specificially meet Indian detailing standards whilst including all of the features that make RebarCAD the first choice for global detailers.

Fast Accurate Detailing: RebarCAD can detail anything and RebarCAD has been successfully used on all sorts of building, transportation, water, process and power projects.

Detailing features include an extensive selection of powerful bar ranges to suit every situation. Whether you are detailing a flat slab, circular tank, bridge deck or abutment, you will find a detailing facility in RebarCAD to meet your needs.

Automatic Bar Bending Schedules: The most impressive aspect of RebarCAD is the automatic bar scheduling to IS 2502:1963 (Reaffirmed 1990 and 1999). RebarCAD automatically creates and maintains the bar bending schedule throughout detailing and editing. Schedules can be sorted and compacted to a minimum number of pages. Users may customise their printed forms and include a company logo.

Automatic Detailing Macros: RebarCAD supports parametric macros for detailing stairs, pilecaps, pad footings, beams, slabs, columns, circular bar arrangements and octagonal bases. The resulting details are scheduled automatically and can be revised later with RebarCAD's bar editing tools.

Editing & revisions: RebarCAD provides stretching and editing functionality which makes easy work of drawing changes and maximises re-use of existing details thus optimising the re-use of existing information. All changes to the drawing are immediately reflected in the bar bending schedule and all bar labels, sections etc. are also updated automatically.

Links to Fabrication Systems: RebarCAD is able to produce the `industry standard´ SteelPac sdi file format for exporting into the SteelPac electronic rebar supply chain thus providing seamless integration with other SteelPac technologies, which includes tools for approvals, procurement & change management, optimisation and production.

Links to RC Design Software: The results from CADS BS8110 design programs for beams, columns, bases, etc, can be imported into RebarCAD for instant detailing and scheduling. Such details can later be amended easily, as required.

RebarCAD has a proven track record worldwide having been used successfully to detail thousands of building and infrastructure projects, both large and small. Managers will find it easy to recruit trained and experienced operators for such an Industry standard solution.
