BTW there exists a manufactur file format for this too. It has file ending abs and is called the BVBS format. See this page from tekla software
https://teklastructures.support.tekla.c ... _exporting The file format is very simple and therefor easy to implement.
Interesting information. Thank you for sharing it.
May I know, who owns this format, and is it "open"?
I tried to find, but could not get much.

If you would integrate the bar shape cut list and the BVBS format export into your GSoC I would support it and even help as a mentor.
I support it. Will also contribute. And I suggest, don't depend on GSoC, if you (@Suraj Dadral) are finding it interesting then start working. It may help you get GSoC more easily.

keep in minde there are some tricky tasks ...
For example:
- the length in the bar shape cut list is the length without the curves means the length as would there be no curve.
<snip>
- export to svg and excel should be possible too. (may be not implemented but the data structure should allow wo easy implement it.)
- AFAIK in germany the bar shape cut list is not a list of ISO A4 pages but placed on reinforcement drawing (this should be possible too)
Means if you go for the bar shape cut list and the BVBS format this will take quite some time from all your work! But IMHO it is worth because the rebar tools could be used in real world than
It lays foundation of @Suraj Dadral's project.

@all around here
How dou you guys deliver the bar shape cut list to the manufactor in your country?
On drawings. In some cases, bar-bending team need to prepare it from structural drawings.
In India we follow

HANDBOOK ON CONCRETE REINFORCEMENT AND DETAILING
Two screenshots are attached showing Bar Bending Schedule.
