LEAP Bridge Concrete, PS girder: add separate unit weights for 1) SW calculation and 2) for modulus of elasticity

Currently there is only a singe input for concrete density in the prestressed girder design module. This density is used to calculate the weight of the beam and also the E modulus. There should be 2 separate inputs for density. One would be used f...

Haunched (angled) deck soffit at outside edges extending to top flange of girder

Our bridges are designed with a haunched (or angled) soffit at the outside edges of the deck. These extend from the outside edge of the deck down to the top of the outside girder flange. Right now, this can be fudged in a deck template on a straig...

Generate Geometry Points with Deed Boundary Tool

RIght of Way take tables are required with named points. The normal workflow is to create points then origin point persist snap those elements creating the shape of the deed boundary to the points. In this way the legal reports show the point name...

Use Analyze Point Tool in Sheet/Drawing Models

We need to be able to track alignment data to check sheet annotation. Would be very helpful to have an easy way to do this in sheets. Since an alignment or terrain would still need to be selected, the sheet scale shouldn't matter. This would work ...

Add ability to use manually drawn pier cap templates extruded up/down station

OBM is limited in the cap shapes it can accommodate currently. It would be very helpful if we had the ability to draw cap shapes in the front elevation view and use those as templates, which OBM extrudes in the up/downstation direction. We would l...

Trench Templates to automatically constrain themselves based on the pipe size

Trench templates are used on pipes for fill quantities. It would be useful if you could place a trench that would automatically assign parametric constraints based on the size and pipe thickness of the pipes. Also, shapes other than a circle are d...

Provide the same Leica translator in OpenRoads Designer that was present as a Survey Add-in to InRoads V8i

Provide the same Leica translator in OpenRoads Designer that was present as a Survey Add-in to InRoads V8i, such that a choice of formats when exporting geometry is to export to the Leica DBX format. There is a gap issue in the process to export O...

Text favorite to honor math expressions

What I envision, would be the ability to define Math within a Text Favorite. So, let us say that "[[" would define the start of math in a text favorite. A text favorite could be created in that the value displayed, is math from element properties....

Snapping to arc/spiral end in profile

I would highly recommend to let user to snap to arc or spiral end in profile design. As you can see in the attached video I can't find intersection between profile alignment and vertical line that indicates arc/spiral end. To find intersection b...

Ability to append, join, or combine individual alignments and have it hold the sub alignment stationing, which would create station equations

In Geopak, we had the ability to take individual alignments and create an overall alignment from a subset of alignments and it would hold the individual stationing for each alignment, creating station equations. There is no way to do this in ORD u...
