( 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....

Finished Grade Elevations on Approach Slabs

I don't believe we can select the limits of the approach slabs when running the deck elevations report. Many DOTs require slab elevations to be reported on the approach slabs in addition to the bridge decks - adding this functionality would be gre...

Need bent plate connection plates for diaphragm and cross frames.

OBM does not currently allow for bent connection plates for diaphragms / cross frames. We need that ability to cover bridges skewed between 20 and 45 degrees.

Ability to add "Folders" or "Categories" in other Libraries

The "Cross Frames", "Connection" and "Connector Angles" libraries have a flat folder structure. It would be nice to be able to add one or more "folders/categories" for the sake of sorting the templates. That ability exists in the "Decks" library.

For steel beams- When we create stiffeners and use them in cross frame definition, regardless of the method used, the stiffener tables when opened default to the first stiffener in the OBM library rather than the stiffener used in cross frame definition

Currently when we create a new stiffener and then when we create cross frames using those stiffeners, they don't show up when you open stiffener definition after creating cross frames (the first stiffener definition within the selection is shown)

Civil Expression value option for Increasing

Currently there are values for StationStart and StationEnd, which is dependent on the direction of the line being drawn. I am proposing an additional option to report the beginning and ending of stationing with respect to the alignment (smallest t...

Add feature definition for Approach Slab Barrier decoration

There are always production drawings where we want to turn off the approach slab and barrier wall decorations on approach slab, and only show barrier decoration on the deck. Since the barriers decoration only has a single feature definition, we ca...

Integrate Civil File Manager with ProjectWise Explorer

Integrate Civil File Manager with ProjectWise Explorer so exporting and other workarounds are not needed. The ability to create a new version would also be nice.
