Create Top and Bottom Meshes for Surface Templates

Currently ORD will create a top mesh and bottom mesh when a template is assigned to a corridor. However, when a template is assigned to a design non-corridor terrain, no top or bottom meshes are created. Doing so would be very useful for viewing o...

Share Template Libraries - Ability to Share Template Libraries Between Users

Please add the ability to reference Template Libraries. This would allow us to have a master template library users can pull templates from. Currently we have to import templates from a master and each user is required to have there our library be...

Don't process corridor for change of disabled Point Control or Parametric Constraint

Not sure why it does this, but it doesnt make sense that the software processes when these are changed although they are disabled. To aid in productivity, especially for large corridors, the corridor should check if the Point Control / Parametric ...

Tool to convert Parametric Cell to a 2D Civil Cell

Civil Cells are often difficult to create due to it's use of parent-child relationships. I find it easier to create what I'm looking for by using constraints and variables for Parametric Cells. I think most Parametric Cells act similar to how a Ci...

Add the ability to view color coded depth of cut and fill 3D meshes with ability to set depth ranges.

Colors would allow for quick visualization in plan view of major earthwork areas.

Allow modeling of Pier Segments with different cross section

For Segmental Bridge Modeling, Pier caps segments typically have diaphragms built in and are a different cross section than the other typical segments. OBM should allow this to be modeled.

Option to define only a single beam in the Beam Layout

Currently OBM requires atleast two beams in the beam layout. Users working on bridge expansion projects, or with rail bridges have requested allowing bridges with a single beam.

Trim cross section named boundaries once placed

In InRoads/GeoPAK, planimetric lines or pattern lines could be placed, trimmed, and/or manipulated before using said lines for cutting cross sections. Placing named boundaries that can be manipulated to achieve this same purpose would speed the pr...

Roadway lighting design

Using corridors, add event point templates which can report calculated light levels. Add tools allowing for statistical analysis of those points. Improve overall lighting layout capabilities to allow for arrays or periodic placement. Improve lumin...
