Calculating Multiple Polygon Volumes using Analyze Volume from Terrain Model

The calculate volume tool only works on a single target polygon. If multiple polygons are present it's quite tedious to calculate one-by-one and manually sum the totals. For example in a bathy survey of a channel it's common to have different area...

Auto-increment Geometry point names/numbers

Some users need to be able to assign unique point numbers. So, when creating a new geometry point, the user should be able to type in a starting point name/number (with or without a prefix) and once they place that point, it should automatically a...

Convert smart civil annotation to plain text

The ability to easily convert smart civil annotations to plain text will make it much easier to share annotations with other disciplines in DWG format. Also, sometimes we just do not want smart annotations within our drawings. Currently have to do...

Detection of clashes between rebars

When modeling a 3D concrete element like a bent cap with all the reinforcment, it would be helpful to have a tool to detect a clash between bars like minimum/maximum permitted spacing between them, or minimum clear cover to concrete edges, which r...

Adding post tensioning ducts in ProConcrete

ProConcrete allows to add main and secondary rebars to a concrete element (bent, column, or footing) but it does not allow to add post tensioning strands, ducts, trumpets, wedges, or any other element associated to the post tensioning. It would be...

Enhanced Mathematical functions in the Constraint Equation dialog

As a Template Developer I want enhanced mathematical functions in the constraint equation dialog so that I can spend less time trying to achieve the tasks with fewer workarounds. Workarounds: The users find they must do a lot of workarounds to per...

option to have the Named Boundaries "Show the Create Drawing Dialog" toggle stay on

As a designer it would be great to have an option to have the tool active as the default. There are very few instances where I would create sheets without this active. I know the other designers in our department operate the same way as well.

bolts on steel cross-frames

I'd like the ability to add bolts on steel cross-frames. Currently, I can add them to Field Splices, why not to cross-frames?

Control the level/feature definition of surface templates selection layer

Currently when you select a surface template in 3D view, a ghost mesh element under the "Default" level appears. I believe this element defines the surface template as a whole. There is presently no way of controlling this element to assign it a f...
