Rebar Shape Files

When a rebar shape file is modified (from automatically adding user-defined bar bends during positioning), the original .rsf file is preserved with a .bak_date_time extension. If .bak files are present, the modified .rsf file should be moved to workSpace\Standards\ProStructures\Rebar\Shapes\ and PS_REBARSHAPES should be added to a workspace configuration file.

Rebar Codes

If you have modified any of the rebar code XML files, move the modified file or files to workSpace\Standards\ProStructures\Rebar\Codes\ and add PS_REBARCODES to a workspace configuration file.

Plugins Databases

The .NET Connection databases delivered in SS8 were examples. These examples are delivered in the program directory in the CONNECT Edition. If you have modified any of the databases in SS8, move the modified .dbf files to workSpace\Standards\ProStructures\Connections\. The configuration variables are set up to find them there.
