Enhancement::Additional Tool for Design of Cross over connection between Tangent & Canted Tracks

I suggest improvements to Bentley OpenRail Designer for handling Cross over connections in the following scenarios: Cross over Between Adjacent Tangent Tracks: Enable a simple geometric connection between two parallel tracks without the use of Geo...

WS wind speeds table for FDOT Sdg 2.4 (and combinations) are not updated as per 2025

There appears to be a discrepancy in wind load calculations—specifically, the gust factor of 0.85 remains different from AASHTO standards. However, the FDOT Structures Design Guidelines (SDG) 2025 now allow the use of AASHTO Article 3.8, which may...

Improve drawing annotation management

Sometimes we apply more than one drawing annotation to the same model. It would be good to have a model manager view with all the applied annotations group so that we can disable, remove or add. That way we could select what we want to remove inst...

get quick slope measurement from dynamic cross section based off alignment (not corridor!)

I know if you open dynamic cross sections based off a corridor you can place temporary dimensions. but if you open a dynamic cross section based off the alignment you cannot place temporary dimension lines. I need an easy way to get what slope a g...

Display Point Cloud data in A "Profile View"

When creating a profile view from 2D Geometry, there is no way to show the Point Cloud data which may attached to the model. When performing a "Create 3D Cut" the Point Cloud Data should be displayed. The only work around I have found is to create...

Sync all Surface Template tool

We need a tool to sync all or just the selected templates with one click. On large site projects, it's easy to get 100s of templates, if I change something on the library and want to apply that, I have to go through one by one and ask it to sync. ...

Station Offset Report

When working on Finish Grade Elevations, I have been utilizing the Station / Offset Tool in the OBM Geometry Report flow to capture my T-line points along Beam Lines and print the report for documentation. The bridge I am currently working on is o...

OBM Longitudinal Bearing Slope

In OBM, when using the "Modeled as sloped bearing seats" option, I expected the bearing seat to slope longitudinally as well—not just transversely. This is especially relevant for precast bearings, which often consist of a variable grout pad and a...

OBM Change in the Direction of the Slope

I'm currently developing a bridge model that includes a gore area, and I'm encountering some modeling challenges. The main issue is with the deck slope: the slope direction changes across the width of the bridge, but the deck template is constrain...

Slope direction from auxiliary alignment

In modeling a gore area, I need the slope direction to follow an auxiliary alignment. However, when using corridor information from OpenRoads Designer (ORD), it becomes incompatible with OpenBridge Modeler (OBM) if there's a change in slope direct...
