DU: conduit wall thickness improvement

Follow up for my other idea BCI-I-494 (link https://bentleyopencivil.ideas.aha.io/ideas/BCI-I-494). The feature was implemented, but it still missing some core functions. What it does now, is add the drop on a design scenario. If the setting is tu...

Add By Linear Element option to Analyze Catchment (by Terrain Model) tool

Be able to select a linear element (eg. edge of road pavement) that the Analyze Catchment tool computes catchment areas from a terrain model for. The tool currently only has a Use Fence option which can still take a long time. If one can narrow it...

Calculation column in drainage and utilities flex table.

A formula could be made using existing columns to calculate a value that is atypical or not an option otherwise. I need a pipe full flow velocity check for a design. I can use excel to calculate using full flow capacity and full flow area but if t...

ORD SUDA profiling network (Conduits)

When Profiling (SUDA) networks. There's an option to quickly change nodes to show either line, box, slice etc. Need same option for Conduits. There's one agency we deal with daily that they only want to see single (stick) lines when profiling a se...

Toggle Drainage Calculations On or Off

Applicable to OpenRoads Drainage, CivilStorm, and StormCAD Bentley drainage software tries to do too much / it tries to do ALL the calculations, even if you don’t want to. There have been times I have had separate drainage models: one for inlet sp...

Modify default Height/Depth of a Node

In current version we do not have flexibility to change height/depth of a node from default 5.25 feet. At times we need lesser deep Nodes which does not require more than 1 or 2 feet of cover from soffit of conduit.

Set size for Conduit in the Feature Definition.

Currently we have generic pipes (ie RCP Class III) and on placement, the user defines the size by using the description field. Because of this, I cannot attach an Item Type and explicitly set the Pay Item information. If I can set what the size of...

Create multiple long sections/profiles in the same model space

When creating profiles/long sections for track vertical geometry, ORD creates an individual sheet view and model view for each sheet. This creates a large amount of work when trying to bulk annotate or export long sections for drafting. It would b...

Clip Conduits (pipes) at inside edge of Drainage Structures and Report "True" Horizontal Lengths and Vertical Lengths in the Properties

This is more than useful; this is absolutely required. When laying out Drainage Networks, pipes need to be trimmed at the inside edge of the structures, and the "True" pipe lengths (horizontal & vertical) need to be provided in the properties....

It would be beneficial to allow drainage designers to use graphical elements in combination with terrains to define time of concentration components

Currently, in order to determine one of the components of the Time of Concentration (Tc), ORD DU users have to jump completely out of the 'Catchment Properties' interface to determine the length and slope of the Tc element (since once you are in t...
