Exporting entire LBS model (cross-frames, diaphragms and stiffeners) to DGN

In LBS (LEAP Bridge Steel), it appears that cross frames (CF) and stiffeners are not exported to the DGN file. The screenshot below is from LBS Tutorial 2, which highlights this limitation. The goal is to streamline CAD detailing by having LBS gen...

Interoperability of concrete diaphragm from OBM to LBC for open/close box beam types

There’s a need for improved interoperability between OBM and LBC when working with concrete diaphragms in open or closed box beam configurations. Specifically, the transfer of diaphragm data—such as start, end, and interior diaphragms—for box gird...

Camber on the beam, Beam need to be curved and follow the underside of the deck without gaps- Australia specific

The current beam hog modeling behavior is not as expected. While deck thickening can be applied, the supporting beams remain straight and do not conform to the underside profile of the deck. In reality, the beams should follow the curved shape of ...

Incorporate an ORD roadway designer window & file (.ord)

I'll be honest, the implementation ORD's strength is the software's weakest point. Being able to visually see the model in the 2D default model theoretically sounds great but the execution is costing too much time and money on medium to large scal...

Save plotting view button

Add a button that will save the plotting view on a sheet model. So that after you adjust your levels, the sheet looks like you want it to print and you close the file, the next time you open it is still as you left it. Save settings does not do this.

Create corridor from reference feature

Our current standard workflow for roadway corridor modeling is to create a pavement corridor then a corridor for each end condition Rt and Lt. I have seen many others including some Bentley folks use this method. It would be big time saver to have...
