For PROFIS Rebar software; are you planning on introducing a feature for adjusting the embedment lengths similar to PROFIS Anchor software?

PROFIS Rebar calculates the embedment lengths based on yielding of rebar (both post-installed and cast-in). This is in-line with typical requirements in Australia to yielding the rebar. For rebar design at tensile stress less than the yield strength of the rebar, AEFAC technical note on Post-installed Rebar connections and AS3600-2018 clause 13.1.2.4 can be referenced.
Thank you for your suggestion, we will forward it to our Software development team.
