OpenRoads/Flow Masters Calculation and Annotation

PowerInroads used to have a built in calculator/analyzer. It helped us to quickly calculate the drainage pipe information, minimum slope and velocity at full value etc. Currently to get the data, we use Flow Masters and manually calculate each pip...

Inner wall thickness parameter for multi-barrel RCB conduits.

Currently when using RCB conduits and increasing the number of barrels to be more than one, the inner wall thickness cannot be changed and is way off. Having an inner wall thickness parameter can allow for meeting standards that require different ...

Allow Drainage field to be quickly edited in both the properties window and utility properties window

Sometimes (especially when upgrading a file from a previous release to a later release) the ability to update drainage fields is lost or restricted to one area. It will be "greyed out" and unavailable for editing in the utilities properties window...

Ability to specify slope when placing a Pipe in Plan

It is a common practice to specify a slope as an input parameter when creating a Network.For DU, the slope is rarely exposed and directly editable (only from profile, and if Set invert to Start and or stop is true - and if "Use construction length...

Display Rule (Display Style)

An option to add line style scale in the Display Rule. We have a customized line style for our Storm Conduits. We scale them in the element templates according to size of the pipe. (also an idea, option to use element template for the Display Rule).

Allow in/out invert information to be pulled from node structure

Allow in/out invert information to be pulled from node structure and not just conduit for the purpose of annotating plan sheets in bulk through annotation groups. Currently, whether using the civil labeler or annotation groups, this information ca...

Allow for easier rotation of utility nodes in profile

Multiple options should be available (node handles that can be manipulated, a match slope to conduit option in properties, a degree value that can be keyed-in, etc). This should allow for simplified placement of cell nodes that serve as pipe fitti...

Ability to add bends in watermain and when the bend angle is changed to geometry updates

When laying out watermain pipes the bends can be 45 degrees, 22.5 degrees, etc. These bends are modeled as nodes in our workspace so we can report of them and display them in our drawings. If the angle of the pipe adjusts, we want the node feature...

GEOPAK Drainage gave you inlet calcs after you placed an inlet and assigned a catchment without having to run a scenario. We need this functionality in ORD

In Geopak Drainage, once you place a node and attached a catchment, you were able to see inlet calculations. This let the user know if they needed to shift the box to have an allowable spread. It would be great if we could get that feedback withou...

Need to be able to read the GEOPAK Drainage binary file and export to a spreadsheet – without having GEOPAK installed or running

Geopak is no longer supported by Bentley. At some point, Geopak will not be installed on our machines, but we may need to get the calculations that reside in the GDF file. We need a method that will allow us to extract the information we need from...
