Give option to not annotate affix if a text favorite returns blank

When annotating elements using an affix (prefix or suffix) tied to a Text Favorite, OpenRoads currently annotates the affix even if the Text Favorite evaluates to a blank or null value. This results in: Stray symbols, separators, or units (e.g.,...

Ability to Change Deck and Beam Layout Limits

In recent versions of OBM, the ability to add or remove SupportLines was added. While this is helpful in some cases, it would be more helpful to have the ability to change which SupportLines a given Deck or Beam Layout belong to. That way if the S...

Bridge deck breakback variant

Add a variant to the deck breakback that allows you to adjust the angle from the break point or add a deck variant that lets you set a distance from face of backwall which would automatically set your breakbacks without the need to give a distance...

Integration of OpenRoads Designer Civil Functions in Python

Add OpenRoads Designer Civil functions to Python integration allowing development of Python applications that can access/call the Civil Design processes within OpenRoads

Allow OBM model to interact with OBM components in a referenced OBM model

Allow for an OBM bridge to utilize bridge components from a referenced OBM file to create geometry. Example: A project requires parallel design for steel and concrete beams. Allow OBM "File A" to contain the alignment, profile, deck, and steel bea...

Offset Overlapping Reinforcement at Specific Locations in Drawing Models

Reinforcement is typically tied together and is 3D modeled to reflect that. For example, a U bar tied into longitudinal/vertical bars. When a section cut is taken, the drawing models appears to show a single long U bar and not 2/3 separate bars. B...

Haunched (angled) deck soffit at outside edges extending to top flange of girder

Our bridges are designed with a haunched (or angled) soffit at the outside edges of the deck. These extend from the outside edge of the deck down to the top of the outside girder flange. Right now, this can be fudged in a deck template on a straig...

Group Sets of Reinforcement Together

In the substructure reinforcement maybe need to be modeled in separate groups (using irregular dispatch, single rebar distribution etc.) to avoid obstructions like plies or girders that are cast into the concrete abutments/wingwalls. This may nece...

Add option depth of the cut for profile view drawings

1)CS0179668 Currently when we do profile view drawings we are creating a section cut with depth zero using the alignment as reference. When we have curved bridge in plan or a even number of girders, the cut doesn't show the girders because they ar...

Beam Haunch Parameters and Templates

Beam haunches should have more robust parameters or even model templates. some examples would be: the ability to allow exterior haunches to extend to the edge of deck independent of the top flange of the girder/beam. also allow it to taper to a ...
