DU RIM Elevation calculated from Ground Elevation offset

The RIM Elevation is a stagnant number once you enter an elevation it does not update in relation to any surface changes. RIM Elevation would be better suited for use if it can be defined with an offset. Another field would be needed: RIM Depressi...

Revise Limitation to LEAP/RC-Pier Wind Load Auto Generation Tool

I have brought the limitation to the Wind Load Auto Generation tool in the past, but this is becoming more important and an issue now, since I’ve been getting many comments from our clients and my coworkers on this. Currently, the wind load auto g...

Include print/plot ability in OpenRoads ConceptStation

At present, ConceptStation does not include print/plot capability. The workaround has been to export the concept to MicroStation or ORD. However, not all ConceptStation users have access to MicroStation or ORD. The product should at least have the...

Item Type Expression that References a Terrain

Similar to the new Station/Offset Expressions, it would be great to query a terrain in an item type on an element and return the elevation. It would be used primarily for point cells, but I could also see it being useful for linework.

Limit the types of models that can have coordinate systems

Would be nice if the non-indexed profile models and cross section models prevented users from being able to assign coordinate systems. Also would be nice if coordinate systems weren't able to be attached to sheet models either. Since coordinate sy...

Contact (3rd) Rail tools

It would be great to have a set of tools to model a contact (third) rail - this is used by many transit systems as a traction power source for trains. There are enough nuances to the design of this rail that it warrants a dedicated tool with the a...

Feature Definition parameter - Show feature in plan, profile, XS

When we create a features, we want to see them sometimes in 2D, sometimes in 3D, sometimes in profiles, sometimes in cross sections. It would be nice to have a simply parameter "Draw/show in 2D", "Draw/show in 3D", "Draw/show in Profile", "Draw/sh...

Separate geometric ratios summary from stress ratio summary

OpenBridge LEAP Steel Summaries include geometric ratios (like 6.10.7.3-1) together with stress ratios. This is not helpful, as that ratios is not a real demand/capacity ratio, therefore when that geometric value of "performance ratio" is high, it...
