If you are using the Concrete, All Trades, or General Contractor Trade Database, you'll find an Item called "Rebar"
- Duplicate the "Rebar by Tons" in Master Items
- Rename the description to "Rebar by Pounds" and change anything else applicable (cost codes...etc.)
- Go to the Sizing tab
- Size method Change to "Styles"
- Set Container to "LBS"
Next, in the Units/Per we need to divide the LBS per foot of rebar by 1 (We used Google to find out how much rebar weighs per LF per #; #4 rebar is .668 LBS PER FOOT, so "1 divided by .668" = 1.497005988).
- Enter "1.497" in the Units/Per for #4 Rebar
