Enhancement to Group/Join Multiple Nodes in a Structure Node to Match Existing Survey Data

There is currently not a way to join/group multiple nodes to a structure node to match existing survey data. This node join/group capability is needed to match XYZ surveyed invert points (from field collection) and be able to use the Extract from ...

Enable hydraulic analysis for referenced files

For large projects, we need the ability to have multiple engineers working on the hydraulic model. We can achieve this by splitting the pipe network into multiple files and creating catchments in separate files. Doing so causes us to lose the abil...

Create a rule to set drainage node to (active terrain) when setting elevation reference

Presently when setting reference elevation for the node it lets you set it to the active terrain but does not rule it to the (active terrain). If this were done the inlet tops would automatically adjust as the design terrain changes.

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...

Allow Design Scenarios to change proposed conduit properties and class based on depth of conduit.

The class of a pipe is primarily selected by the depth of cover over a pipe. Sometimes vehicle loads or construction loads have an influence on the class selection

Drainage and Utilities to support non-drainage pressure pipes

Pressure pipes are essential components of many engineering systems, such as water supply, oil and gas transportation, and power generation. To design and manage these systems, engineers need features that can model the geometry and properties of ...

Circular Eccentric Nodes should have the ability to have a rotation point at the center of the structure.

Circular eccentric nodes, like manholes, should have the ability to have a rotation point at the center of the structure and elevation reference at the center of the frame and cover.

Catchment Areas by shape

If I could select all shapes and have it create all catchments at once that would save a lot of time. It would be great to have a dialogue box pop up where defaults can be changed.

DU: Only modelling workflow

When starting a DU, OpenRoads creates a whole DU project inside the file and brings a lot of hidroly/hidraulic properties with it. That's fine if the goal is to run an analysis. But what if I just want to model a whole network and never run it? Di...

Provide a list of Outdated Cached References

If a drainage profile uses a cached view rather than a dynamic one, ORD will provide a notification in the bottom right-hand corner that simply says "Cached References are currently displayed. One or more cached references does not match the curre...
