Infill grading tool

Provide a tool to quickly create infield gradings. When creating infield gradings, often we only to include part of a geometry element instead of the entire element. Because the terrain from element tool doesn't have the option to only import part...

Calculation of track length

A function that calculates the length of the tracks with turnouts withdrawn would be very helpful to calculate the amount of rails. The lengths of rails between turnout points 1 - 2 and 1-3 should be automatically redrawn from the lengths and repo...

Show Projected 3D Cuts when using the Project Run Tool

If we project the profile runs to centerline, we lose the ability to show the utility crossings generated by the 3D cut at the pipe centerline. We can add a 3D cut at the road centerline, but often the crossing utilities are not in the same locati...

Use parametric cells for creation and management of sign structures and sign bridges

This would be very similar to the way that OBM creates and manages bents, columns, footings, etc. This would allow for more rapid population of custom vertical sign items in our 3D design environments. By this I mean items of different sizes, span...

Volumetric Meshes created as Scalable Meshes

For large scale projects, earthwork volumetric meshes cause considerable deficits in navigation performance due to the high count of vertices and faces to be calculated with each navigational operation. Use of scalable meshes for these components ...

Include column and shaft controlling service loads (RCPIER/LEAP)

When designing drilled shafts, there is no option to display controlling shear and moment loads (bottom of column). This is needed for the geotechnical engineer on designing th drilled shaft. For column design, it is sometime useful to also show c...

Template (ITL): add parameters for component length, spacing and individual

It could be useful for different purposes to be able to create component meshes of defined length (construction, pre cast slab). I suggest to add at least 3 parameters to any component: length of the component: the question is then, where to measu...

Add some kind of optimization setting for "existing ground terrain contour display" to improve performance

We really need some kind of optimization setting available which will improve the performance of OpenRoads when Existing Ground Terrain Contours are Displayed. I believe this setting in Civil 3D is called "Level of Detail" or something. The proble...

Select Multiple Annotation Definitions Simultaneously While Building Annotation Group

While building an Annotation Group, Annotation Definitions have to be selected one at a time in a temporary window. Make the definition selection window persistent, and allow multiple definitions to be simultaneously selected for addition to the a...

Need modeling of curved wing walls

Currently in OBM wingwalls can only be modeled straight (and skewed). We need to be able to model curved wing walls, i.e. on a horizontal curve.
