Allow modeling of Pier Segments with different cross section

For Segmental Bridge Modeling, Pier caps segments typically have diaphragms built in and are a different cross section than the other typical segments. OBM should allow this to be modeled.

Option to define only a single beam in the Beam Layout

Currently OBM requires atleast two beams in the beam layout. Users working on bridge expansion projects, or with rail bridges have requested allowing bridges with a single beam.

Need to be able to add CrossFrames for Steel Tub/U girders

Similar to the custom tools for available for stiffeners and cross frames for steel built up or rolled shape beams, OBM needs to add tools for adding these to steel tub/U beams

Ability to Place Geometry Points that use Parametric Cells

I would like Geometry Points to support using parametric cells.

Ability to annotate models over a station range

Currently, the only way to update Annotation is to update ALL or one drawing model at a time. It would be very helpful to be able to select a station range to remove and then update in one action.

Item Types for Parametric cells

Users are asking for item types for Parametric cells. Primarily for quantities reports. We tag each element, but can we expose volumes for each element in a Parametric cell. The most important things are Volume, Surface Area, Length(Column, Pile,...

OBM should support multi-model, 2D and 3D workflows similar to OpenRoads

Users currently need to always start with a 3D file in OBM unlike in ORD. Allow users to support the multi-model (2D and 3D) behavior similar to OpenRoads Designer. All decorations should be in the 2D file and all 3D objects in the 3D file. When s...

Need modeling of curved wing walls

Currently in OBM wingwalls can only be modeled straight (and skewed). We need to be able to model curved wing walls, i.e. on a horizontal curve.
