Frame model, concrete only
The building frame is ours too: a fictitious seven-level concrete frame in IFC and GLB. It contains columns, beams, slabs, footings, and walls. It does not contain bar centerlines. Bar geometry is in the RF-03 model above.
Samples
Reference models built in-house to show our modeling standard (samples, not for construction). Three interactive models: explode them, click a part, read its mark.
RF-02
A 4ES end plate: two bolt rows at the tension flange, one outside and one inside, a stiffener on the web centerline, and one bolt row inside the compression flange. Explode the joint, then click a piece mark. AISC 358 is the reference for the layout.

RF-03
Stem, footing, dowels, and a bar list. US bar sizes with a Canadian designation toggle. Laps and 90° hooks follow the illustrating conventions of ACI 318 and CSA A23.3, and the sheet habit of ACI 315 and RSIC. Click a row to light the bar, or click the bar to light the row.

The US / Canada toggle changes the bar designation and the weight display only. #4 is not the same area as 10M, #5 is not the same area as 15M, and #6 is not the same area as 20M. The 3D bars stay at the US diameters.
