Take surface template into account when analyzing volumes

Add the ability to take surface templates into account when analyzing volumes between two terrain models. That way you will not have to create a delta terrain, for instance when you want to take the clearance of top soil into account. This option ...

Set Minimum and Maximum Cover Constraints to the Conduit Catalog, not the Prototype

Pipe standards vary their minimum and maximum pipe cover values based on the size of the pipes. There needs to be an ability to set this per conduit size so that when running a design you can consider these different cover depths. As of now, you w...

Annotate Slope between 2 Linear Geometries in Cross Section

2 x 3D linear geometries are created with the existing terrain. In cutting cross section, 2 points are displayed in a section. However, the slope value between 2 points are not able to annotated under annotation group.

DU: add drop calculation to node invert depending on lowest conduit wall thickness

Some times, most common with concrete conduits, the node invert needs to have a drop in reference to the lowest pipe to acomodate its wall. This would later be filled to match.For construction and BIM purpose, this difference is important. Special...

Rectangle feature

Openroads Horizontal Geometry has lines, arcs, and circle features. Add a rectangular civil geometry element. This would be used for site grading (building pad), instead of drawing 4 individual civil geometry lines and complexing together, a recta...

Text Favorite cross section slope - hide trailing zeros

We are able to format most text favorites to hide trailing zeros. However, we are not able to hide trailing zeros for text favorites for Cross Section Annotations > Segments > Slope. We can define the precision, but there is no option to hid...
