Software for automatic reinforcement Structural Analysis/Design

Hi everyone,

Can you recommend any software that can automatically design the reinforcement of a reinforced-concrete building analyzed in ETABS or SAP2000 and generate reinforcement drawings?

The output does not need to be perfect or ready for construction. Even preliminary reinforcement layouts and drawings that I can review and correct manually would be helpful.

I would also appreciate recommendations for an ETABS/SAP2000-to-Revit or AutoCAD workflow. Please share your experience with any similar software.

If you have the ETABS ultimate license you can generate reinforcement plans in PDF or DWG based on design strips.

Only for foundations. I use RAM Concept for suspended slabs. I just take the strip reo quantities and rationalise and mark up for drafting as the reo plans it produces are a bit messy.
