Rebar detailing is the intricate process of scheduling rebar within concrete structures. This process requires a blend of expertise, coordination, and patience. In this session, we'll explore how Infrabuild (IB) has revolutionized the industry with innovative techniques and processes. Using building information modeling (BIM) and Autodesk Construction Cloud, IB has streamlined workflows, reduced waste, and kept track of key sustainability metrics. These tools, rarely used in this field, have been game changers. Learn how IB's use of Autodesk Construction Cloud has enhanced collaboration with customers, leading to optimal designs, less waste, and improved results. We'll also examine how cloud collaboration has redefined the detailing lifecycle by improving accuracy and comms, and reducing the construction cycle. Lastly, we'll explore sustainability practices that minimize environmental impact and maximize social and economic benefits, particularly given that concrete contributes to 6.5% of global carbon emissions. Be part of this insightful journey into the future.

This session will explore the tool for automatic generation of 3D rebar shop drawing utilizing Revit. The tool uses parametric modeling to create complicated rebar shop drawings twice as fast as conventional methods. When applied to a diaphragm wall of the subway project, the tool achieved a labor cost reduction of 150,000 USD. In addition, the speeding up of the shop drawing creation process enabled a more rational design with more detailed design cross-sections, and a 10% reduction in rebar material compared to the initial design. To improve the efficiency of the subsequent rebar processing process, trials are underway to link rebar information in Revit with rebar processing machines. In large-scale infrastructure projects, activities related to reinforcement (such as drawing, fabrication, and assembly) significantly impact the schedules and costs. This tool is expected to contribute to solving human resource issues and to sustainability by reducing material losses.

This seminar will explain how design and construction information can be collected in a common data environment (CDE) and used effectively for digital information uses (DI Uses). It creates information through a model-driven approach, collaborative production using Autodesk Construction Cloud, and information management processes based on ISO 19650. The value and quality of the information is increased when everyone on the project team shares data through the entire process, facilitating decision making by the appointing party and gaining their trust. Shared data is the golden thread and the core of information management. Finally, we'll describe our case study and vision of a data-driven digital Daiwa House, which puts the CDE into practice and proceeds on the basis of the information gained from it.

CADS first presented RebarCAD 3D for Revit software at AU in 2018. We're now nearly seven years into the development of the program, and, as a result, a lot has changed! Detailing rebar in Revit has been made easier and more efficient using additional tools to add special rebar bend types, circular bars, and even the ability to apply "one click" detailing to members using the Smart Detailer. The audit facility provides the user with full and efficient control over all rebar in the model, checking assignment to release and identifying any rebar that does not conform to the customizable preset rebar requirements. Detailers can efficiently output rebar production files directly from the Revit model to the major fabrication systems for production, with just a few clicks. Revision control tools for bar list and release management—combined with the ability to fully lock the rebar type, position, and dimensions in the model—result in complete quality control.
