Download the New Add Rebar Component for Rhino.Inside.Revit

Hello everyone,

I am excited to share a new Add Rebar component for Rhino.Inside.Revit.

This component allows you to create native Revit rebars directly from Rhino curves, while keeping support for:

  • Smart inputs
  • Element tracking
  • Rebar types

The goal is to make reinforcement modeling faster, more parametric, and more integrated within your Grasshopper + Revit workflows.

Download & Installation

  1. Open Grasshopper inside Revit using Rhino.Inside.Revit.

  2. In Grasshopper, go to File → Special Folders → Components Folder.

  3. In the opened folder, return one level up to the Grasshopper root folder.

  4. Create a new folder named:

    Libraries-inside-Revit-2025
    
  5. Place the provided plugin files into this new folder.

  6. Restart Grasshopper and Revit.

  7. You should now see a new tab in Grasshopper called RevitRebar.

Plug-in Requirements

  • Rhino 8
  • Revit 2025
  • Rhino.Inside.Revit (latest daily build recommended)

Community Testing

This is an early release, and your feedback is incredibly valuable.

Please download, test it in your projects, and let us know:

  • Does it work as expected?

This is one of the most common issues I have noticed when creating rebars in Revit.

Users try to draw the bends manually.
But with Add Rebar component, you only need straight segments.

Revit will generate the bends automaticallybased on the rebar type.

If you draw arcs or tiny radii, the bar may fail or disappear.

Keep it simple.

Straight lines in → proper rebars out.

Share your feedback, suggestions and feature requests :slight_smile:

Hello, does this work as well with Revit 2026? I ask this, because when I tried to run the plugin, Grashopper didn’t recognize it (I use Revit 2026). Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Change your folder name from 2025 to 2026.

@MSAwan Hello, there seems to be lots of updates based on your LinkedIn posts, but the only place I could find to download the rebar components from is this thread from 08/2025. Am I missing something? Where can I get the latest version, please?

@Vlavanj you can request the access here

OK, I applied. Gotta say I find it a bit confusing. I’m not really looking for learning content, I just want to test the rebar components, which the community site does not seem to even mention.

2 month waiting The skool Rir group coommunity admins are not accepting any new ones. Just post on github.

@Rupal_Sapra Have you followed the instructions and did you check if you are running the compatable version of Revit and Rhino.

By the way this very old version of Rebar Component. You should request the new one from the RIR Community.

Sorry, there was some error on my end. Now it’s working. Thankyou!

Hi Muhammad,

thank you for this component. It seems very impressive. I´m a structural engineer starting this Rhino realm. And your component looks very promissing and I´d like to try the new versions. You´ve shared that we should request for it in the community in Skool. But it´s a paid one. So, is this the only way to have a chance to try the new version of the Rebar component?

Anyway, congratulations for this plugin.

Hi @Ilton_Pacheco Fisrt of all welcome to the RiR Forum. As you just starting with rhino and RiR, I wish you best of luck on your learning journey.

Yes, Currently we are offering the paid Rebars Plugin, which inlcudes many rebar related components. But if you are only interested in free version you can use the Free available Add rebar free form component.

Thank you for your attention and response. I´ve been trying the Free version with no success yet but I think the problem is on my site, I must admit :sweat_smile:
Cheers

If you are fulfilling the Plug-in requirements then it shouldn’t be a problem.

Can you share the error?
