PathReinforcement.Create(Document, Element, IList<Curve>, Boolean, ElementId, ElementId, ElementId, ElementId, ElementId)

Method
Description:
Creates a new PathReinforcement object from an array of curves and given Rebar Shape id.
Remarks:
The method sets Rebar Shape of primary bars only.
Syntax
public static PathReinforcement Create(
	Document document,
	Element hostElement,
	IList<Curve> curveArray,
	bool flip,
	ElementId pathReinforcementTypeId,
	ElementId rebarBarTypeId,
	ElementId startRebarHookTypeId,
	ElementId endRebarHookTypeId,
	ElementId rebarShapeId
)
Parameters
Parameter Type Description
document Document The document.
hostElement Element The element that will host the PathReinforcement. The host can be a Structural Floor, Structural Wall, Structural Slab, or a Part created from a structural layer belonging to one of those element types.
curveArray IList An array of curves that will define the outline of the PathReinforcement.
flip Boolean A flag controlling the bars relative to the curves.
pathReinforcementTypeId ElementId The id of the PathReinforcementType.
rebarBarTypeId ElementId The id of the RebarBarType.
startRebarHookTypeId ElementId The id of the RebarHookType for the start of the bar. If this parameter is InvalidElementId, it means to create a rebar with no start hook.
endRebarHookTypeId ElementId The id of the RebarHookType for the end of the bar. If this parameter is InvalidElementId, it means to create a rebar with no end hook.
rebarShapeId ElementId The id of the RebarShape element that defines the shape of the rebars in the object.
Return Value
Type Description
PathReinforcement The newly created PathReinforcement.
Exceptions
Exception Condition
ArgumentException The input curveArray is empty. -or- The input curveArray contains at least one helical curve and is not supported for this operation. -or- The element hostElement was not found in the given document. -or- the host Element is not a valid host for Area Reinforcement, Path Reinforcement, Fabric Area or Fabric Sheet. -or- The structural rebar is not within area and path reinforcement. -or- curves in curveArray are not continuous and open. -or- pathReinforcementTypeId should refer to an Path Reinforcement Type element. -or- rebarBarTypeId should refer to an RebarBarType element. -or- startRebarHookTypeId should be invalid or refer to an RebarHookType element. -or- endRebarHookTypeId should be invalid or refer to an RebarHookType element. -or- rebarShapeId should refer to two dimensional Rebar Shape element with segments forming only right angles.
ArgumentNullException A non-optional argument was null
ArgumentsInconsistentException startRebarHookTypeId cannot be set for given rebar shape. -or- endRebarHookTypeId cannot be set for given rebar shape.
