XS_CONSIDER_REBAR_HOOK_LOCATION_IN_CAST_UNIT_NUMBERING

To define that rebar hook locations are taken into account in cast unit numbering, add the XS_CONSIDER_REBAR_HOOK_LOCATION_IN_CAST_UNIT_NUMBERING advanced option to an .ini file, for example to the options.ini under the model folder, and set it to TRUE. The default value is FALSE.

Note that setting the advanced option to TRUE means that cast units that are otherwise identical will be regarded as different in numbering if the stirrup hooks are in different corners, for example.

XS_ENABLE_PRECAST_CONTINUOUS_CONCRETE

The XS_ENABLE_PRECAST_CONTINUOUS_CONCRETE advanced option now works when set to TRUE. When it is set to TRUE , precast parts in the same units look like continuous material.

New template attributes to get rebar cover thickness values (On plane, From plane)

There are now new template attributes for reporting rebar concrete cover values: CONCRETE_COVER_ON_PLANE , CONCRETE_COVER_ON_PLANE_MIN , CONCRETE_COVER_ON_PLANE_MAX , CONCRETE_COVER_FROM_PLANE , CONCRETE_COVER_START , CONCRETE_COVER_END , LEG_LENGTH_START , and LEG_LENGTH_END.

Update your reports accordingly.
