Quick answer
Upload structural PDF drawings to reoXapp and it generates a bar bending schedule: bar marks, shapes, sizes, cut lengths, lap lengths and quantities, with mesh and accessories.
The result is a printable PDF you can give to a fabricator, and you can compare it with other options on our software comparison page.
What is in the schedule
- Bar mark and description
- Shape and bend dimensions
- Bar size and grade
- Cut length and lap lengths
- Quantity and weight
- Mesh, chairs, spacers and other accessories
How it is generated
reoXapp reads the reinforcement callouts, sections and typical details on the drawings and checks them against the concrete and engineering notes. Each line cites the sheet or detail it came from, and anything ambiguous is flagged for you to answer.
Checking the result
You should always check a schedule against the plans before ordering. reoXapp is built to make that check quick: sources are shown, uncertain items are flagged, and you can re-run the takeoff after answering them.
FAQ
Can a bar bending schedule be generated from a PDF?
Yes. reoXapp reads structural PDF drawings directly and generates the schedule, without needing a 3D model.
What formats do I get?
A printable PDF bar bending schedule. Subscribers can also turn a takeoff into a quote or invoice and export the quote as a PDF or CSV.
Is it accurate?
It is built to read plans the way an experienced steel fixer would, and it flags anything uncertain, but you should check the schedule against your plans before ordering.
