1.  Straight length of bar after the dogleg bend
2.  Vertical rise of dogleg bend
3.  Distance from top of column to start of dogleg bend
     1.  For a splice located near the middle of column, value can be negative
4.  Run of the dogleg bend
5.  Position of the bar from concrete edge to CL of bar
6.  Bottom end clearance

1.  Create Side “X”- Decides whether bars will be created for the specified side
2.  Edge Clearance- Cover distance from edge to first vertical bar
3.  Bar Spacing- Desired spacing of face bars
     1.  You can put in variable spacing if necessary (ie. 3*3” 1’-0” 3*3”)
4.  Perimeter Cover- Cover distance for bars, same distance for all sides

Considerations: 
  • Side A will not always be the top side of the column, as the location will depend on the rotation value that the User inserts the column with.
  • At this time, doglegs cannot be added to the bottom of the bars
