Namespace: Autodesk.Revit.DB.Structure
Assembly: RevitAPI (in RevitAPI.dll) Version: 25.0.0.0 (25.0.0.0)
Syntax
public static AreaReinforcement Create( Document document, Element hostElement, XYZ majorDirection, ElementId areaReinforcementTypeId, ElementId rebarBarTypeId, ElementId rebarHookTypeId )
Public Shared Function Create ( document As Document, hostElement As Element, majorDirection As XYZ, areaReinforcementTypeId As ElementId, rebarBarTypeId As ElementId, rebarHookTypeId As ElementId ) As AreaReinforcement
public: static AreaReinforcement^ Create( Document^ document, Element^ hostElement, XYZ^ majorDirection, ElementId^ areaReinforcementTypeId, ElementId^ rebarBarTypeId, ElementId^ rebarHookTypeId )
static member Create : document : Document * hostElement : Element * majorDirection : XYZ * areaReinforcementTypeId : ElementId * rebarBarTypeId : ElementId * rebarHookTypeId : ElementId -> AreaReinforcement
Parameters
- document Document
- The document.
- hostElement Element
- The element that will host the AreaReinforcement. The host can be a Structural Floor, Structural Wall, Structural Slab, or a Part created from a structural layer belonging to one of those element types.
- majorDirection XYZ
- A vector to define the major direction of the AreaReinforcement.
- areaReinforcementTypeId ElementId
- The id of the AreaReinforcementType.
- rebarBarTypeId ElementId
- The id of the RebarBarType.
- rebarHookTypeId ElementId
- The id of the RebarHookType. If this parameter is InvalidElementId, it means to create a rebar with no hooks.
Return Value
AreaReinforcementThe newly created AreaReinforcement.
