Stirrups #48

Closed moethu closed 8 years ago

User feedback: I miss functions that can call a Rebar shape object, in order to place stirrups in beams i.e. Now the workaround with Dynamo is to build a custom curve for that basic shape 21.

This would help people to build ie stirrups with var heights, or stirrups in circular forms (i.e. water purification stations) (path reinforcement is not a solution here as it is limited to system floors and walls, and not work on custom components, not even components built in place with Wall category…)

Something else that popped up during testing is that when the scripts needs rerun due to changes (ie. Number of curves, changing reference faces, …) the element binding is not working properly. The initial generated rebar is not deleted or changing. So the nodes generate new rebar next to the existing. Which is very uncommon for Dynamo with Revit This was tested with the package v 0.1.3

Stirrups and Hook Types can be created using the package.
