OBM Place Bearing List Order Causing Item and Material Misclassification

The current order of OBM’s Place Bearing groups is creating significant confusion regarding which item group corresponds to the Bearing and Grout Pad/Bevel Plate. Because the group order changes depending on configuration, the same physical compon...

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.

OBM should support multi-model, 2D and 3D workflows similar to OpenRoads

Users currently need to always start with a 3D file in OBM unlike in ORD. Allow users to support the multi-model (2D and 3D) behavior similar to OpenRoads Designer. All decorations should be in the 2D file and all 3D objects in the 3D file. When s...

Model Curves with Radius in OBM

Currently 3D elements that are curved are rendered with a series of line segments. While this might be okay for some applications, it makes the 3D model very unhelpful for plans production (i.e. you cannot dimension radii of curves). We need the c...

Item Types for Parametric cells

Users are asking for item types for Parametric cells. Primarily for quantities reports.We tag each element, but can we expose volumes for each element in a Parametric cell. The most important things are Volume, Surface Area, Length(Column, Pile, C...

Need to add functionality to LBS for struts/web walls between pier columns.

Currently, if an OBM model is defined with a strut/web wall between pier columns, the strut will not transfer to LBS, and there is no way within the LBS substructure design module to add a strut/web wall. This is a hug problem because we have brid...

Need modeling of curved wing walls

Currently in OBM wingwalls can only be modeled straight (and skewed). We need to be able to model curved wing walls, i.e. on a horizontal curve.

Prestressed Concrete Girder Beam End Cuts & Clips

It would be great if we could control the vertical end cut orientation of the concrete girders: Normal (as is) and Vertical (plumb to the world). Also, we often have to clip the corners of girders when bridges are on heavy skew. Would be nice to b...
