1. Symbol style layering marker. The number, for example number 1 in T1, indicates the
layer number. The letter, for example T in T1, indicates whether the reinforcing bar is on
the top, bottom, near side or far side layer.
2. Level prefix style layering marker. The number of triangles indicates the layer number
from the face. Triangle orientation indicates whether the reinforcing bar is on the top,
bottom, near side or far side layer. For example for top bars, the triangle head points
downwards, and for bottom bars upwards.
