Software: Module Question: Type: Difficulty: Advance Concrete Reinforcement How is a filter created for a list? General *** Answer In Advance Concrete, a list can be created using the List Generator application. This application was described in "How is the list generator used?" document, and can be found at the following address: http://www.graitec.com/en/FAQ_view.asp?FAQID=676 Sometimes we want to create different lists depending on the steel grade type or depending on the bar diameters that are used into a reinforcement drawing. Create a reinforcement drawing for a multi-span beam. Use different diameters (16; 12; 10) and steel grades (FE500 HA and FE235 HX), and then create a list for it. For this example we will use the "Nomenclature des barres classique" list, from the France folder. The list contains all the bars that are in the reinforcement drawing. To display in the list only the FE500 HA or FE235 HX steel grades we have to add a new attribute and then the list must be redefined using List Generator application. Launch the List Generator application and open the drawing that contains the list. The list is found in Advance Concrete's library, which is stored on the computer's hard disk drive. (C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Graitec\AdvanceConcrete\2011\Support\Template\List\France\Bars) An adjacent attribute will be copied next to the list's body. The new attribute will be edited and renamed to < SteelGradeName=='FE500 HA' >. This way the list will contain only the bars that have the desired steel grade, in this case FE500 HA. 1 of 3 10/Jan/2012 11:48 AM and then press Enter. open the reinforcement drawing in Advance Concrete.

If you do not want to see this value.graitec. the attribute is renamed to < SteelGradeName==' FE500 HA' | SteelGradeName==' FE235 HX' >. Next.com/en/FAQ_view. If you want a new list which will display only two steel grades. if you want to display only the 16. follow the steps described above. 20 diameters add the < (NominalDiameter==16) | (NominalDiameter==18) | (NominalDiameter==20) > attribute.
