Modelling of reduced scale RC model building

[Saqib Mehboob]

Hi
I would like to ask whether is it possible to model a scaled building like at scale of 1:6 or even smaller with miniature reinforcement details?
I have a model building with reinforcement bars of size ranges up to as small as 1.61-mm diameter.
Currently, i can selected the minimum size available in the defined library is #2-bar (Imperial Bar Size) which is approximately 6-mm of diameter.
Look forward to hearing from this forum.
Regards

After initially defining longitudinal reinforcement, for example, you may use the "Additional Reinforcing Bars" button to specify bars of custom area and location. This could be a solution for the longitudinal bars.

For transverse bars, there seems to be no means of specifying custom bar areas. So, you may have to use a #2 bar with a fictitious spacing to provide the desired level of confinement and shear resistance.
