Parameters

document
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..Document
The document.
hostElement
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..Element
The element that will host the AreaReinforcement. The host can be a Structural Floor, Structural Wall, Structural Slab, or a Part created from a structural layer belonging to one of those element types.
majorDirection
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..XYZ
A vector to define the major direction of the AreaReinforcement.
areaReinforcementTypeId
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..ElementId
The id of the AreaReinforcementType.
rebarBarTypeId
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..ElementId
The id of the RebarBarType.
rebarHookTypeId
Type: Autodesk.Revit.DB..::..ElementId
The id of the RebarHookType. If this parameter is InvalidElementId, it means to create a rebar with no hooks.

Return Value

The newly created AreaReinforcement.
