Thanks to 
for posting this CADclip on their site.Rebar Rocks !
The new Area Reinforcing system family makes laying out nominal steel a sinch.
Because REVIT tools all work the same it really takes no practice at all.
Select the slab or wall, click the area reinforcing tool and sketch the area outline including openings.
Perhaps use the pick tool and perhaps lock the sketch lines to the slab edges. We've done this before with floors and roofs.Then simply use the properties to specify the top and bottom rebar size, spacing, bla bla bla and you're done.
This rebar does not show up in 3D but it does show up in all sections.In true REVIT fashion it parametrically updates everywhere as you make changes in any view.
Below is a link to a great video CADclip showing how Area Reinforcing works.

For some time now, all we've done is draw detail lines and detail components to show rebar. This looks pretty easy I might just give the structural reinforcing in revit another chance. Thanks!
No way. Detail lines....forget it. REBAR Rocks ! I have many more video tutorials on rebar here > http://www.cadclips.com/Revit-Structure-2008-Update.asp ...and there are many more videos still to come.
A message to the Google humans and the Google Robots > Unlock my blog !
I have started to post Videos on You Tube. Search for 'CADclip'.
Every Monday I send the same stupid reply message to Google after they send me the same stupid automated apology on behalf of the Google Robots for locking down my blog. It's been 9 weeks since REVIT ROCKS has been locked down wothout warning.
I will get back into blogging as I own www.revitrocks.com anyway but with a different 'non-free' provider that is FOR SURE.
In the mean time if anyone is reading this I have started to post Videos on You Tube. Search for 'CADclip'.
Google Blogger sucks !
