Live Element Annotation in Drawing Models via Annotation Groups

There can be a lot of instances on a project where a detail in a section is not practical to model 3D, and the user feels compelled draw the element live in the drawing model. It would be great to capture live elements with annotation groups, as t...

Beam Haunch Parameters and Templates

Beam haunches should have more robust parameters or even model templates. some examples would be: the ability to allow exterior haunches to extend to the edge of deck independent of the top flange of the girder/beam. also allow it to taper to a ...

Patch Product More Often

I will use ORD as an example. I, along with many others, have chosen to remain on ORD 10.12 due to a constant string of issues with more current releases. Most recently, I tried to upgrade a project from 10.12 to 24. This resulted in my Text File ...

Group Sets of Reinforcement Together

In the substructure reinforcement maybe need to be modeled in separate groups (using irregular dispatch, single rebar distribution etc.) to avoid obstructions like plies or girders that are cast into the concrete abutments/wingwalls. This may nece...

Offset Overlapping Reinforcement at Specific Locations in Drawing Models

Reinforcement is typically tied together and is 3D modeled to reflect that. For example, a U bar tied into longitudinal/vertical bars. When a section cut is taken, the drawing models appears to show a single long U bar and not 2/3 separate bars. B...

Update beam layout

Please update the software so to allow modeling additional exterior beam starting at abutment and ending before support lines and the added beam not parallel to the other continuous beam for multi-span unit.

Haunched (angled) deck soffit at outside edges extending to top flange of girder

Our bridges are designed with a haunched (or angled) soffit at the outside edges of the deck. These extend from the outside edge of the deck down to the top of the outside girder flange. Right now, this can be fudged in a deck template on a straig...

Enhancements to Expression Builder

Interface Currently, writing expressions in expression builder is only slightly better than writing code in notepad. The interface could be enhanced similar to Visual Studio with colorized classes, methods, and properties, colorized brackets with ...

Place Bearing Under Beams Tool Settings window order of the sections, Bearing, Grout Pad/Bevel Plate, and Bearing Seat

In the Place Bearing Under Beams Tool Setting window I'd like to see the Bearing and Grout Pad/Bevel Plate sections switched to reflect the actual order of the parts of a bearing, like the material list below it. So that the Grout Pad/Bevel Plate ...
