Summary
Defining the material strength of the existing reinforcement ensures that PROFIS Engineering applies the correct yield strength when evaluating the splice behaviour between cast‑in reinforcement and post‑installed rebar.
Prerequisites
Make sure you:
- Are logged in to your PROFIS Engineering account
- Have opened the Post-installed rebar module
If needed, refer to the article How to access the Post-installed rebar module in PROFIS Engineering.
Step-by-step instructions
-
Open the Existing reinforcement tab
In your Post-installed rebar design workspace, navigate to the Existing reinforcement tab on the left-hand side of the screen. -
Input reinforcement yield strength
Under Materials, enter the value of Reinforcement yield strength based on project specifications.
