Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
rebarShape	RebarShape	A RebarShape element that defines the shape of the rebar. A RebarShape element matches curves and hooks. A RebarShape element provides RebarStyle of the rebar.
barType	RebarBarType	A RebarBarType element that defines bar diameter, bend radius and material of the rebar.
startHook	RebarHookType	A RebarHookType element that defines the hook for the start of the bar. If this parameter is <span class="keyword"><span data-languagespecifictext="cpp=nullptr\|vb=Nothing\|nu=null" id="LSTFC1A6BA4_1"></span></span>, it means to create a rebar with no hook.
endHook	RebarHookType	A RebarHookType element that defines the hook for the end of the bar. If this parameter is <span class="keyword"><span data-languagespecifictext="cpp=nullptr\|vb=Nothing\|nu=null" id="LSTFC1A6BA4_2"></span></span>, it means to create a rebar with no hook.
normal	XYZ	The normal to the plane that the rebar curves lie on.
curves	IList	An array of curves that define the shape of the rebar curves. They must belong to the plane defined by the normal and origin. Bends and hooks should not be included in the array of curves.
startHookOrient	RebarHookOrientation	Defines the orientation of the hook plane at the start of the rebar with respect to the orientation of the first curve and the plane normal. Only two values are permitted: Value = Right: The hook is on your right as you stand at the end of the bar, with the bar behind you, taking the bar's normal as "up." Value = Left: The hook is on your left as you stand at the end of the bar, with the bar behind you, taking the bar's normal as "up."
endHookOrient	RebarHookOrientation	Defines the orientation of the hook plane at the end of the rebar with respect to the orientation of the last curve and the plane normal. Only two values are permitted: Value = Right: The hook is on your right as you stand at the end of the bar, with the bar behind you, taking the bar's normal as "up." Value = Left: The hook is on your left as you stand at the end of the bar, with the bar behind you, taking the bar's normal as "up."

Return Value

Type	Description
RebarContainerItem	The Rebar Container Item.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentException	The input curves is empty. -or- The input curves contains at least one curve which is not a bound Line or bound Arc and is not supported for this operation. -or- curves do not form a valid CurveLoop. -or- The input curves contains at least one helical curve and is not supported for this operation. -or- The rebarShape has End Treatments
ArgumentNullException	A non-optional argument was null
ArgumentOutOfRangeException	normal has zero length. -or- A value passed for an enumeration argument is not a member of that enumeration
ArgumentsInconsistentException	curves contains non-fillet arcs with radii that are less than the minimum bend radius for the RebarBarType and RebarShape style.
InvalidOperationException	rebarShape does not match curves.
