Currently, LEAP Concrete reports required interface shear reinforcement values for both a smooth and a roughened condition. It also flags a design as not passing if either minimum is not met. If I know I have a roughened girder, I should be able t...

Currently, if a bridge is modeled in OBM using variable columns with a round cross-section, that column cannot be accurately transferred to LBS, nor can a variable-round cross-section be defined, analyzed, or designed within LBS. This is a big hol...

Much like the "Break Void" line where the elevation of the graphic is honored in the Terrain, a "Break Island" should also exist to prevent improper triangulation.

The user insists of adding Str III as a default combinations. It may be useful to create a default Str III combination (since now we have WL considered under design) instead of forcing the user to create a new combination that accepts WL. Please s...

Since the 8th edition of AASHTO there has been more detail given on the use of Strut and Tie Modeling for the design of D-Regions in Concrete structures (AASHTO 8th & 9th Editions Section 5.8.2 and subsequent sections). In recent years there h...

Under commentary C2.5.2.6.2: "For straight girder system bridge, this is equivalent to saying that the distribution factor for deflection is equal to the number of lanes divided by the number of beams"

When designing drilled shafts, there is no option to display controlling shear and moment loads (bottom of column). This is needed for the geotechnical engineer on designing th drilled shaft. For column design, it is sometime useful to also show c...

The Florida I-Beam (FIB) section library in LEAP Concrete has not been updated to reflect the latest standard revisions. In particular, the number of strand slots in the third row from the bottom (@ 7") is shown as 13 in LEAP, while the current st...

I was told it's in the backlog, so I put it to vote. Add ability to model flexible vertical support (spring) in LEAP Bridge Steel - it's important for bridges that are supported with piers of a compliant nature. This type of support may quite sign...

When reporting envelope .sup files, the leading value when reporting displacements is always global, while the results displayed are either local or gobal (selected by the user). This is inconvenient for displacement envelope result reporting when...
