A particular state DOT utilizes an integral abutment detail where the end diaphragm over the abutment is cast as part of the deck slab pour to encapsulate the ends of the steel girders or PPC I-beams (eliminating abutment joints). This end pour ov...
Enhancement to Create Terrain Model from Multiple Toggled Field Books
There is currently not a way to create a terrain model from toggling multiple field books under the Survey Data tab. Users can currently use the Create Terrain Model From Field Book Selection Set tool to create a terrain from an element selection ...
We need that when writing down the singular points of a railway deviation (P0, P1, P2 and P3), they are joined by straight lines P1 with P2 and P0 with P3. See attached image. In fact, the V8i version did represent the detour scheme. Thank you!
I've found that variable constraints are highly effective when support lines are perpendicular to the alignment. However, when a skew is introduced to these support lines, a variable constraint continues to function perpendicular to the alignment ...
Add more Display Options for Placing Terrain Slope Labels at a Single Point on a Terrain
Currently, the only way to place a single point slope label on a terrain is using the "Analyze Point" tool which works ok, but there are no options at all for controlling the display of the label placed. We would like to have the ability to place ...
In ORD it is possible to do a Profile Offset Transition. This methode makes a vertical offset. In case of a slope, the difference between the vertical offset and the normal/parallel offset is different. For large slopes, this is differences is too...
Add a Geometry Connector tool for Vertical Geometry
Cuurently OpenRail implements a tool called Geometry Connector (similar to Multiple Horizontal element Regression Analysis in Power Rail Track). However similar geometry tool is not available for vertical geometry calculations. It would be possibl...

Configuration variable to control default path for .tiw files
When working in a fieldbook in survey, we want to set the default file path to a specific location for .tiw files. As it stands, ORD remembers the last location from which a .tiw was imported, but we want to set a file path for all users.
Updating XS annotation group w/o resetting annotation placement
The XS annotation group will place annotations in text conflicting locations. Once the user resolves the text conflicts there is a chance that the annotations may have to be revised when the model is updated. Therefore, it would be helpful if ther...
Add the ability in a Plan Annotation Group to label non-curve PI's with the deflection angle
I would like to request a new alignment annotation that labels a non-curve PI in a horizontal alignment with the station, the deflection and piece of text that says "no curve". I can create the text favorite that displays the station and the text ...
