Contact (3rd) Rail tools

It would be great to have a set of tools to model a contact (third) rail - this is used by many transit systems as a traction power source for trains. There are enough nuances to the design of this rail that it warrants a dedicated tool with the a...

Key Station with civil rule

Key stations can now solely be places with a station input. In many cases the location of your Key Stations depends on the position of other elements, like geometry for example. Being able to give key stations a civil rule - like the Persist Snap ...

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...

Allow modeling of Pier Segments with different cross section

For Segmental Bridge Modeling, Pier caps segments typically have diaphragms built in and are a different cross section than the other typical segments. OBM should allow this to be modeled.

Option to define only a single beam in the Beam Layout

Currently OBM requires atleast two beams in the beam layout. Users working on bridge expansion projects, or with rail bridges have requested allowing bridges with a single beam.

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 rail tools - availability to set rail gauge value and inclination of the rails

I would like to have opportunity to set rail gauge, rail edge to rail edge distance and rails inclination during the use of Create rails tool.

Allow new Line of Sight analysis to be included in Civil Cells

The new Line of Sight tool is a great addition to the visibility toolset, however, automated repetitive checks are still not possible. As the "standard" Line of Sight checks are usually for things like approach to stop lines and fixed objects, int...
