Additional features are features under development. For registered subscription you will receive new features as soon as it is updated. Shown below, ICDAS will make use of Tekla strong reinforcement creations in Revit model. Because ICDAS input list every single object in the construction, you can select which objects for exporting to IFC file. In Revit Add-Ins External Tools run function "Export selected objects to IFC" for the IFC file of these objects. In Tekla press File > Insert Reference Model... to insert this IFC file for creation of reinforcement. Once finish, export them to IFC file back to Revit (Open File, Save as *.rvt and Link Reivt, or Link IFC). ICDAS are also working on automatic reinforcement creation in Tekla for the coming version.

For complicated curved/double curved concrete elements, ICDAS develop automation for geometry in Revit as usually. Then create Dynamo scripts for creation of rebar. These scripts will select concrete surfaces from the Revit model, to create the rebar centerlines, and then the rebar objects. These features develop in special agreements with the clients.
