Create a tool that constructs transitions between different types of rail sections

Sometimes in track design, one must use different types of rails, say 60kg and 50kg rails. One could weld them and grind them together but this is a crude method. In Sweden they use what is called a transition rail, which in principle contain a sm...

Viewing Corridor Object and Dynamic Cross Section Tools in Read-Only

I sometimes have to look at another user's Corridor file to get additional details. If I reference in their file or open it read only, I'm not able to open up Corridor Objects to see what template they are using. It would be useful to allow me to ...

Slope to Mesh - "Create 3d Line By Slope to Terrain" to include Meshes

Update the the "Create 3d Line By Slope to Terrain" to include slope to Mesh. This will allow users to grade to 3d meshes created by linear template components and corridor components. Currently if I want to daylight to a corridor mesh with this c...

Annotate the Dynamic Cross Section View

As a Designer I want the ability to annotate point elevations and dimensions like we are able to in the drawing model cross-section so that checking the model during design before cutting sheets helps us.

Additional Measure and Draw tools for Dynamic Sections

I would like a set of tools that I can measure and draw slopes with in the dynamic sections. I can use temporary dimensions for the active corridor elements only, but I would like to get the slopes of elements in adjacent corridors that are in my ...

Complex Retaining Wall Modeling Tool

Many time when desining earthworks or roads we`re have to create retaning walls to respect the site boundaries. The soluntion depends on if it`s a cut (anchors, soil naisl, ..) or fill areas (seinforced soil walls, slope reinforcement, mass gravit...
