When exporting to the IFC, keep a different identification for each item.

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

( OBM > Deck > Thickness variation) Deck variations remain normal to alignment.

I am attempting to model a 3 span concrete slab bridge with thickened haunches over the supports. I am using a typical deck template. My thickness variations are shown in the first attachment. The Bridge has a 10 degree skew angle at the supports....
