Fast field handoff with TSV copy and CSV export

Important Notice

  • This tool is for placement support only. It does not cover strength, pullout, anchorage length, or concrete design checks.
  • For final decisions, follow applicable standards, site procedures, and supervisor instructions.

How to use

  1. Choose a mode: count → spacing or spacing → count.
  2. Enter total length L and left/right offsets, then confirm effective length Le.
  3. Select a layout rule (equal, centered, flush) and use quick actions when needed.
  4. Review the summary, schematic, and coordinate table, then export as TSV or CSV.

Examples

Count → Spacing

Input

L=6000, leftOffset=100, rightOffset=100, n=5

Output

Le=5800, pitch=1450, x=[100,1550,3000,4450,5900]

Spacing → Count (Centered + Ceil)

Input

L=6000, leftOffset=100, rightOffset=100, pitch=450, rounding=ceil

Output

nCandidate=14 does not fit, so it is auto-adjusted to n=13

Formulas

  • Le = L - leftOffset - rightOffset
  • n2p: pitchActual = Le / (n - 1)
  • p2n: nCandidate = floor / ceil / round(Le / pitch) + 1
  • equal: pitchActual = Le / (n - 1), remainder = 0
  • centered: start = leftOffset + remainder / 2
  • flush-right: start = leftOffset + remainder

FAQ

Why can input spacing and actual spacing be different?

In Equal spacing, the interval is recalculated to fill the effective length exactly.

What does the fit-priority badge mean?

It means the requested count did not fit under fixed-spacing rules and was automatically adjusted to a fitting value.

What does the centered-symmetry quick action do?

It sets both offsets to the larger value and switches the layout rule to Centered.

Can I use this output as a structural approval?

No. This is a placement-support tool only and does not perform structural verification.
