Element information

Module(s): Bar Reinforcement + Mesh Reinforcement + BAMTEC

You can use the Element Information tool to display information on the reinforcement elements. These include the working mode, number off management and a schema check.

To check the active reinforcement situation

1. Click Element Information (How).
   

   Activate Element Information in one of the following ways

   • Menu bar: Modify Engineering Bar Reinforcement/Mesh Reinforcement/BAMTEC

   • Palette: Tools Modify area in the following module(s):

   Bar Reinforcement

   Mesh Reinforcement

   BAMTEC

   • Configuration: Engineering Engineering Modify flyout
2. Select the kind of elements to be displayed:
   • Model On - displays only the reinforcement created with the Reinforce with 3D model option being active.
   • Model Off - displays only the reinforcement created with the Reinforce with 3D model option being inactive.
   • Added - displays only the reinforcement that is actually being tracked and added to the total quantity.
   • Ignored - displays only the reinforcement that is not being tracked and added to the total quantity.
   • Schema Check - displays all the marks not represented by full or partial schemas as far as number off is concerned.
     This way, you can display marks for which partial schemas are available in addition to a full schema or whose total number is not included in a full schema or in several partial schemas.
     

Note: You can use the Full Schema tool to check whether there is a full schema for each bar or bent-up mesh. When you select this tool, the first mark number without a full schema is displayed in the dialog line.
Please note that this approach only works when no other reinforcement drawing files are open in edit or reference mode; otherwise, there may be duplicate mark numbers.
