Adds a circular array of reinforcing bars to a
sectionproperties
geometry.Bars are discretised by four points by default.
- Parameters:
geometry (Geometry | CompoundGeometry) – Reinforced concrete geometry to which the news bar will be added
area (float) – Bar cross-sectional area
material (SteelBar | SteelStrand) – Material object for the bar
n_bar (int) – Number of bars in the array
r_array (float) – Radius of the circular array
theta_0 (float) – Initial angle (in radians) that the first bar makes with the horizontal axis in the circular array
n (int) – Number of points to discretise the bar circle
- Returns:
Reinforced concrete geometry with added bar
- Return type:
CompoundGeometry
