Simplifying Retaining Wall Construction: A Wingwall-Inspired Approach for Bridge Design
When the bridge needs a long “wingwall”, it break two part – a wingwall which is built with the abutment, and the rest part I call it “Retaining wall”. Is it possibly to make this retaining wall as easy as wingwall? That means like put the wingwal...
With the ability to open multiple signs at once, it would be nice to be able to print all of the open signs to a single pdf. It would also be nice to have a print shortcut on the standard toolbar at the top of the ribbon instead of having to click...
civil cell variables with expressions and variations
When we create parametric cells, we are able to use expressions to calculate values based on inputs, and in the properties of the cell, each of the variables (listed as visible) are shown, and you can adjust the cell from there. You can also creat...
For the modeling and model review process, it would be helpful to have Description fields for common corridor inputs, such as Parametric Constraints, Point Controls, etc. that can be easily discovered using the Corridor Objects tool.
Coupling between horizontal and vertical regrerssion lines
A very problematic area is the coupling between horizontal and vertical regression analysis. Generally speaking, one must create a horizontal regression line first, create regressed elements, couple them together in a complex geometry and then pro...
Currently there is no Singapore Dataset for OpenSite Designer. I would like to request the Singapore Dataset from OpenRoads be ported over for user of OpenSite, as it contains useful dgnlib for level, cells and linestyle
Many times a calculated Time of Concentration is less than the minimum used for Intensity. When this occurs in a system of drainage areas (catchments), it helps a designer AND a reviewer to see what the actual Time of Concentration is at a given p...
Fix the rotation issue when importing drainage nodes from inroads.
We recently used ORD to import 200 plus drainage structures from inroads to ORD. It brought in the nodes, but the rotation was off. We had to manually rotate the node to the correct angle. Also, the 2-D and 3-D rotation did not match until the nod...
