21 May: I worked on issue: https://github.com/amrit3701/FreeCAD-Reinforcement/issues/91 and tried to create a solution by using rebar's cover values.

22 May: I have created the project plan, issues, tasks and milestones on GitHub: https://github.com/amrit3701/FreeCAD-Reinforcement/projects/1

23 May-24 May:I explored the fields required for UI components and worked on making mockups for them. I have also tried to find a generic solution of issue: https://github.com/amrit3701/FreeCAD-Reinforcement/issues/91

I have worked on the suggestion provided by @amrit3701 to use the outer points of the rebar to get the ideal length of the rebar.

25 May: I explored some of the function provided by the Reinforcement workbench and Draft workbench to get more insight into the available functions that can be potentially helpful to resolve bugs/issues and help in project implementation. I also started writing pseudocode for calculating the ideal length of the rebar.

27 May: I have completed the pseudocode for calculating the ideal length of the rebar and tried to improve it. Link to pseudocode document is here
