I used ABC wizard to model a two span non continuous bridge (110&amp;#39;-104&amp;#39;) with a 17.5 degree skew. The deck in span 1 is 66.6 ft while in span 2,&amp;nbsp; it flares from 66.6ft in the interior bent to 72.82 in abutment 2.&amp;nbsp;To change the geometry of the bridge I have to use the Bridge Parametric Layout. There I am facing trouble with getting the exact girder length in span 2. For example, in span 2, the girder length should have been 105.34&amp;#39; as shown in the microstation drawing. But in the model, the girder length is shown as 104.54&amp;#39;. Can you please suggest what factors are affecting the girder length and how to change the girder length to show the exact length?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;FYI:&amp;nbsp;The distance from the C/L of pier to bearing line is 10&amp;quot;. I have inputted this value in the brg offset in the properties tab of piers/columns/foundations. I inputted -0.833 ft for abut 1, -0.833 (left brg offset) +0.833 (right brg offset) for the interior bent and -0.833 for abut 2. I see these effect the girder lengths too.&lt;/p&gt;
