Exporting entire LBS model (cross-frames, diaphragms and stiffeners) to DGN

In LBS (LEAP Bridge Steel), it appears that cross frames (CF) and stiffeners are not exported to the DGN file. The screenshot below is from LBS Tutorial 2, which highlights this limitation. The goal is to streamline CAD detailing by having LBS gen...

Allow automatic POI definition from bearing to bearing (for camber and deflections)

For final bridge plans involving a steel bridge, we need to report dead load deflections at either the 10th or 20th points along the span—from bearing to bearing. While the program does calculate these points, it currently measures them from the e...

RMBridge--Seismic Eigen Analysis with CQC Method for Repeated Sub-Systems

In eigenvalue analysis of repetitive structures—where identical sub-systems exist independently within a single model—the same frequencies and eigenmodes are often assigned repeatedly to each sub-system. This leads to an issue with the CQC (Comple...

Camber on the beam, Beam need to be curved and follow the underside of the deck without gaps- Australia specific

The current beam hog modeling behavior is not as expected. While deck thickening can be applied, the supporting beams remain straight and do not conform to the underside profile of the deck. In reality, the beams should follow the curved shape of ...
