Prestressed Concrete Girder Beam End Cuts & Clips

It would be great if we could control the vertical end cut orientation of the concrete girders: Normal (as is) and Vertical (plumb to the world). Also, we often have to clip the corners of girders when bridges are on heavy skew. Would be nice to b...

Detailed Design Report

Currently, the detailed design report in RCPIER only shows shear/torsion calculations for the column. Suggest also including detailed moment, crack control and all other AASHTO checks in the detailed checks so reviewers know which equations were c...

"Export to IFC" exports the active model, not the default one.

The "Export to IFC" tool only exports the default model, not the active one. This is a big problem with OR since in most cases, the default model is the 2D. So we have to have the 3D reference turned on for it to export our objects. We end up with...

Have Plan Readability Recognize Sheet Orientation

The existing Annotation settings offer a plan readability setting to invert text if it would otherwise appear upside down. This appears to be tied to design file orientation. For this to really be useful, it needs to function according to the fina...

Detection of clashes between rebars

When modeling a 3D concrete element like a bent cap with all the reinforcment, it would be helpful to have a tool to detect a clash between bars like minimum/maximum permitted spacing between them, or minimum clear cover to concrete edges, which r...

Linear Template - the BSplines warning is not helpful

When you place a Linear Template on a splined element a warning is generated which requires user interaction to dismiss: "Warning: The base geometry selected for this corridor contains B-Spline elements for the horizontal Transitions. Consider rec...

Show Connected Conduits in Profile

The ability to show the cross-pipes in profile runs right now is by default a user preference. It would be nice if this could just be a standard function or at least set to "True" as a default to be turned off if desired.

Dynamic Tables

For the geometry review; setting out or other OpenRoads/OpenRail tables, if we can place the table/report into DGN design model, once the geometry or model is updated, the values of the table placed in the design model is also updated dynamic. sim...

Transition Length for Parametric Constraints

When using parametric constraints to transition between default template values and the desired value, a separate parametric constraint is often required to control the transition length. (ex. Default to New, New to New, New to Default) An optiona...

. Can the process of creating the sheet layout be updated to select the intersections as key locations which are to be the centre of a sheet, then the remaining length between the intersections is divided to provide an optimal spacing.

The Sheet layout for alignment plans is not used verry much because it often places the sheet break within intersections. An intersection should be on one sheet without a break. Can the process of creating the sheet layout be updated to select the...
