Dev logs of Rebar Addon for FreeCAD - GSoC project

[Pauvres_honteux]

@amrit3701, this is probably a silly question, but are there no use cases where one would like to have tetrahedron rebars?

Background: when we mech' guys want something ultra stiff we try to create a space frame (3D) truss. E.G. a lifting crane.

Test create footing using dialog.
My first dialog.

chakkree one of these days you should think of making an addon of tools like this, we could integrate that to the Arch WB too!

I have also created Bent shape rebar. Please suggest if any improvement is needed.

Hi Amritpal, nice tool!
Anchor lenghts parameter in bent shape rebar does not react. After creating the bent shape, doubleclick on
bentshape, then I wanted to change anchorlenghts from 50 to 250 mm. after pressing ok no reaction,
the value switches back to 50 mm.

From a mechanical point of view a concrete-beam with rebars reacts like a framework.
Broken lines are the compression zones ==> no rebars needed.

Could we have an apply button, so one could change the rebar without closing the task window every time?

There have many things to learn for making an addon.
1. Pyside , QTWidget ,etc (programming techniques)
2. Git System (process for FreeCAD developer). It's new for me, like Thomas my first coding is Forthan77
3. My English

(are there still existing compilers for F77?)

Can you paste the output of a report view (View -> Panels -> Report View)?
