Need to be able to add CrossFrames for Steel Tub/U girders

Similar to the custom tools for available for stiffeners and cross frames for steel built up or rolled shape beams, OBM needs to add tools for adding these to steel tub/U beams

Add Point Projection Interval Option to "Create 3D By Slope To Target" Tool

Currently when using the "Create 3D By Slope To Target" Tool, ORD seems to only project a point at every vertex of a 3D line string. This is fine when using the Geometry Tools to create 3D line strings since it creates a vertex point in 3D based o...

Allow Surface Template for Corridor Top/Bottom Meshes

It would be extremely powerful if Surface Templates could select and use Corridor Top or Bottom Meshes as their base surface. If these were ruled users could create irregular shaped pavement elements with ease. This is something currently very lab...

Permanent bracing (PPC girders)

This would give us the ability to make our models more complete within OBM rather than having to either model using MicroStation tools or another software (ProStructures).

Create Top and Bottom Meshes for Surface Templates

Currently ORD will create a top mesh and bottom mesh when a template is assigned to a corridor. However, when a template is assigned to a design non-corridor terrain, no top or bottom meshes are created. Doing so would be very useful for viewing o...

Feature Definition parameter - Show feature in plan, profile, XS

When we create a features, we want to see them sometimes in 2D, sometimes in 3D, sometimes in profiles, sometimes in cross sections. It would be nice to have a simply parameter "Draw/show in 2D", "Draw/show in 3D", "Draw/show in Profile", "Draw/sh...

3D Clip in Corridor Clip

Very useful in Rock Tunnel Connections, It should work similar to Mesh Subtract in MicroStation, but should be a part of the Corridor information, like todays Corridor Clip is.

Provide a property for Corridors that shows the associated ITL

Corridors may use a variety of template drops that come from a non-default ITL (i.e. the one defined by the configuration variable CIVIL_ROADWAY_TEMPLATE_LIBRARY). A property of the corridor could be shown that identifies any of the ITLs associate...

Sorting and Grouping of Corridors and Linear Templates

Currently Corridors and Linear Templates are very poorly sorted in Explorer. These need to at least be sorted alphabetically to allow users to easily find the Corridor/Linear template they are looking for. Our major projects have dozens and dozens...

Don't process corridor for change of disabled Point Control or Parametric Constraint

Not sure why it does this, but it doesnt make sense that the software processes when these are changed although they are disabled. To aid in productivity, especially for large corridors, the corridor should check if the Point Control / Parametric ...
