Reinforcement Workbench
Introduction
The Reinforcement workbench is an external workbench that provides tools for Reinforcement Generation and Detailing. This workbench provides an interface and presets for the creation of common rebar types. And tools to generate rebars bill of material, rebar shape cut list, bar bending schedule, and rebars drawing and dimension.
Installing
The Reinforcement workbench is not bundled with the default FreeCAD package, but can easily be installed via the Addon Manager. Install it from Tools → Addon manager → Reinforcement. The Reinforcement workbench code is hosted and developed on github and can also be installed manually by copying it into FreeCAD's MOD directory.
