AreaReinforcement Class
An object that represents an Area Reinforcement within the Autodesk Revit project.

Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Structure
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 20.0.0.0 (20.0.0.377)

Syntax

C#
public class AreaReinforcement : Element
Visual Basic
Public Class AreaReinforcement _
	Inherits Element
Visual C++
public ref class AreaReinforcement : public Element

Remarks

This object derived from the Element base object and such supports all the methods of that object such as the ability to retrieve the parameters of that object. The Area Reinforcement element is available only in the Autodesk Revit Structure product.
