Additional Edge Rebar options are available in an additional tab – Additional Edge Rebar' – in 'Perimeter reinforcement'.

You can place straight, L, and U shaped bars at selected **vertical** and **horizontal** edges of the wall.

**Note:** L-shape is placed only if there is a corner cut. L-shape CW and CCW will place L shape rebar on perimeter edges like U shape reinforcement.

**New Item** - adds a line of settings, wherein you can define what kind of bar should be created and define other necessary settings\
**Remove, Move Up, Move Down** - changes order of added lines or removes selected lines\
**Count** - number of bars that should be created through the thickness of a wall layer. Count can be 1 or 2 bars per line.\
**Rebar bar type** - type of rebar that should be used\
**Wall Edge** - select on which edge of the wall rebar should be created\
**Min/Max search distance** - defines range where bars will be created from selected wall edge

*Example 1*

Min distance does not allow you to create bars at top and bottom of a given wall.\
Max distance limits placement of bars at deeper cuts.

*Example 2*

All edges are within search distance limits, so bars are created at all edges.

**Anchorage distance** - extension of ***straight*** and ***L shape*** bars from perpendicular edge, if there is such

**L-Shape leg length** – leg length for U- and L-shaped bars

**Position -**\
If Count = 1, bars can be placed from center or external/internal side of the wall.\
If Count = 2, bars can be placed from external/internal sides of the wall.

**Edge cover** - distance from edge

**Interior/Exterior Cover** - distance from side faces of the wall

**End cover** - For straight bars, this is the distance from the end of the bar to the perpendicular edges. For L- and U-shaped bars, it's a cover for legs from perpendicular edges.
