Stop counting reinforcement bars manually! RebarPro (V03 Beta) is the ultimate automation tool for structural detailing in AutoCAD. It eliminates the tedious task of manual quantity takeoffs and minimizes human error in concrete reinforcement projects.

Whether you are working on a small beam detail or a complex foundation plan, RebarPro intelligently reads your drawing texts and blocks, processes the data at lightning speed, and delivers a complete Bill of Materials (BOM) instantly.

Key Features

Smart Text & Block Recognition New

  • Automatically parses formats like 10Ø12 L=600 or 15Ø14/20.
  • Block Attribute Support: Now seamlessly reads standard Text, MText, and Blocks (INSERT).
  • Variable Length Engine: Automatically calculates the average for variable lengths (e.g., L=200-300 or L=200~300).
  • Armored Symbol Parsing: Advanced Unicode decoding ensures it catches every diameter symbol perfectly, regardless of CAD font corruptions (Ø, %%c, f, Q, ö, etc.).

Automatic Scheduling & Weight Calculation

  • Calculates total steel weight (Tonnage) instantly using standard TS 708 / IMO unit weights (kg/m) for precision.
  • Generates an automated Diameter Summary (Total weight per Ø8, Ø10, Ø12, etc.).
  • Provides Spacing summaries for quick field referencing.

Next-Gen Quality Control & Visual Tracking New

  • Visual Check Marks: Automatically draws a physical green “Tick” (polyline) next to processed bars on a dedicated layer, so you always know exactly what has been counted!
  • Advanced RAM-Cached QC: Incredibly fast error detection flags overlapping/clashing texts [YAKIN] and unusually small texts [KUCUK].
  • Validation & Anti-Duplication: Detects duplicate selections to prevent double-counting, highlights missing lengths/quantities, and warns about bars longer than 12m.

Advanced Auto-Numbering (Positioning)

  • Automatically assigns Position Numbers (Pos No) to bars.
  • Smart Sorting: Sorts bars by location (Top-to-Bottom, Left-to-Right), by diameter, length, or quantity with ascending/descending toggles.
  • Grouping: Identical bars (same Dia & Length) are grouped under the same Pos No.
  • Instantly updates the text in your drawing with the new prefixes.

Ultra-Fast CAD Table & Excel Export

  • Turbo Table Drawing: Places a professional, scaled Rebar Schedule Table directly inside your AutoCAD drawing at “DLL-speed” (0.1 seconds!).
  • Smart Excel Export: Export your full rebar list to .CSV / Excel format in one click. Now features leading-zero protection (e.g., '01) so Excel formats your Pos numbers perfectly.

Dual Language Interface

  • Fully supports English and Turkish languages natively.
  • Launch instantly with dedicated commands: Type REBAR for English or DONATI for Turkish.

How It Works

  1. Select: Run the command (REBAR or DONATI) and select the reinforcement text/blocks on your drawing.
  2. Analyze & Verify: The interface displays the list, checks for errors, and calculates totals. Double-click any item to instantly Zoom-to-Row in the drawing.
  3. Process: Use the “Number It” button to auto-assign position numbers and colorize/tick counted items.
  4. Export: Click “Draw Table” to place the schedule in CAD or “Excel” to save a comprehensive report.

Who Is This For?

  • Civil Engineering Students
  • Site Engineers (for instant material estimation)

System Requirements

  • Software: AutoCAD (Full Version on Windows). Note: LISP routines do not work on AutoCAD LT.
  • Connection: Internet connection required for initial license verification.
FAQ

Questions about this add-in

What does RebarPro do in AutoCAD?

RebarPro reads rebar texts and blocks in your drawing (for example 10Ø12 L=600 or 15Ø14/20), calculates total steel weight with TS 708 / IMO unit weights, groups identical bars, assigns position numbers and exports a bar bending schedule (BBS) to Excel (.CSV) or draws it as an AutoCAD table.

How do I start RebarPro?

Load the RebarPro .vlx file with the APPLOAD command, then type REBAR for the English interface or DONATI for the Turkish interface.

Does RebarPro work on AutoCAD LT?

No. RebarPro is a LISP add-in and requires the full version of AutoCAD on Windows. AutoCAD LT cannot run LISP routines.

Is RebarPro free?

Yes, RebarPro can currently be downloaded and used free of charge from cadlisp.com. An internet connection is needed for the initial license verification.

Which rebar text formats does RebarPro recognise?

It parses formats such as 10Ø12 L=600, 15Ø14/20 and variable lengths like L=200-300 or L=200~300, and decodes diameter symbols written as Ø, %%c, f, Q or ö. It reads Text, MText and block attributes.
