It would be great to have one component to assign all the reiforcement to a defined shell.
At the moment if user have differents diameter, space, cover for each straight, must use many time the same groups of component.
At the moment I created a cluster to do that, but if a component was created it would be much easier
GH_plate_design_FEM-Design.gh (49.3 KB)
it is a great suggestion.
As you can understand, the API is pretty flexible to allow the user to generate any kind of reinforcement ( not orthogonal, overlaps, more dense in some location ect ect ).
However, we might want to create some simpler component to solve daily cases as the one that you mention.
Would you like to share your script with us? We can consider in sharing it with our audience as a .ghuser component 
Credit will be given of course
