Add functionality to LBS to handle round variable column definition and analysis/design

Currently, if a bridge is modeled in OBM using variable columns with a round cross-section, that column cannot be accurately transferred to LBS, nor can a variable-round cross-section be defined, analyzed, or designed within LBS. This is a big hol...

Connect a channel directly to an On Grade Inlet

It would be great if ORD had the capability to connect a channel directly to an On Grade Inlet to be able to calculate spread and bypass at the inlet. Currently the workaround is to connect the channel to a Generic Outfall at the edge of the inlet...

Improve Civil Analysis to another alignment

Wasn't sure whether to post this to technical support as a bug or here. This is a tiny concern in the greater scheme of things but a frustration nonetheless. Suppose you use civil analysis tool to track a horizontal alignment with an active vertic...

Better Elevation Thematic Tool for terrains.

It's very hard and troublesome to create elevation countours for cut and fill or layer thickness. The legends values have to be updated by hand for each new terrain. And in the end, it`s actually just a Display Style applied to the terrain or the ...

Profile projection tools for crossfall relative to Target element

In legacy software, we had the option to either project crossfall from one element to another relative/normal to the reference element or relative/normal to the target element. We do not seem to have this functionality in ORD currently (although t...

Surface Template - "Process Corridor" similar tool

Just add the function to process the template again so it can be updated. This is a major issue when using surface templates with clipping boundaries. If I change the clipping boundary (a simple shape on the 2D model), I have to delete and reapply...
