Now you can experience an improved reinforcement workflow with new in-canvas tools that replace the Rebar Constraints dialog box in Revit 2017.
You can place rebar more precisely with the graphical constraints manager. You can place standard rebar shapes that snap to adjacent standard rebar or constrain them to host faces.
The user interface highlights each rebar segment that can be constrained, along with available targets. The snap constraint maintains its relationship when you place, move, drag, or copy rebar.

Now you can define more accurate reinforcement for non-standard concrete element shapes by fitting rebar for non-standard geometry with rebar sets that vary along inclined faces.
You can use multi-rebar annotations, customizable numbering settings, and more accurate schedules that display varying lengths.

Reinforcement connectors are family-based and fully customizable, and each team member can use them according to their needs. Rebar connectors interact with the rebar that they connect to, facilitating change management.
Structural engineers can use schematic connectors to define requirements.
Detailers can use them to produce shop drawings.
Manufacturers can go into full detail, precisely modeling and representing reinforcement connectors to create installation instructions.
You can add the connectors to groups, assemblies, and partitions with unique coupler numbering, and you can export them to various formats.
Overall, Revit 2017 is the fastest and best performing Revit yet.
With the improved performance, Revit now:

The selection of a bridge type in any particular instance depends principally on the situation, the span, the nature of the foundation, the materials to be used, and the clearance required.
It may be that more than one type of bridge is suitable, in which case the economy of one over the others may be the deciding factor.
To speed up the design process of bridges and accelerate project completion, engineers need productivity tools that help to define bridge components quickly, and easily incorporate them into the analytical model. One such a tool is Autodesk Structural Bridge Design software.
Autodesk Structural Bridge Design software helps engineers achieve greater flexibility and efficiency in the design of
small- to medium-span bridges by integrating loading, analysis, and code checking processes. Additionally, users can deliver design reports faster using more accurate, reliable, consistent, and verifiable data throughout the project lifecycle.
