rebarShapeId

Remarks

The Rebar element RebarWorkInstructions property should be Straight. The rebarShapeId parameter should be the id of a straight RebarShape (single straight segment, no RebarHookType, no EndTreatmentType). Moreover the straight RebarShape RebarStyle should match ( if the current RebarShape RebarStyle is Standard then the RebarShape cannot be changed to a straigh RebarShape using the RebarStyle Stirrup/Tie ). If current RebarShape and the provided rebarShapeId has Stirrup/Tie RebarStyle then also the StirrupTieAttachmentType should match ( both InteriorFace or ExteriorFace ).
