Civil Annotation - Set to NOT scale

We have civil annotation that we use to annotate point geometry. It would be extremely helpful to have an option to set the "Is Annotation" property to "False" in the settings. This can be done after placement, but that is not obvious to users.

PMM non-linear springs

We would like to ask a PMM non-linear spring for modeling Plastic Hinges for reinforced-concrete Columns. This PMM springs are used for modeling the Moment-Rotation (M-R) behavior for different axial loads (P). The PMM spring should be able to cap...

Formulas for Rail Information included in Help Documentation

The formulas utilized in OpenRail are not properly documented within the Help Information. Several Examples include CANT. The Equilibrium Constant gives no useful information in the help documentation for understanding WHAT THIS VALUE IS. As a des...

Implementation of fatigue design for cross frame individual members

In the ‘Code Checker Results’, the program summarizes for each girder all the critical load combinations, AASHTO code and controlling performance ratio. As in some diaphragm locations, the program is stating the girder is controlled by fatigue and...

Evaluate the use of Lambda excess reinforcement for development length of steel used in design

I agree that the excess reinforcement factors would be different for each POI and load case. That is one reason most engineers conservatively ignore that factor. A simple or temporary solution is to set that factor equal to 1. I believe that AASHT...

profile annotation - parabola dimensions as linear annotation and not drawing model annotation

presently parabola dimensions are in drawing model and not in the linear profile annotations, this make them NOT dynamics and always need to be refreshed. By making them in the linear annotation they could be more dynamics.

RM BRIDGE Line Integrals Enhancement

I have tried using the line integrals for shell elements in RM Bridge, but the results are not accurate by around 10%. This is not acceptable. I was told by Ana Carla that the linear integrals results come from Gauss points integration, but I do n...
