I came across these issues while trying to export models from OBM to LBC and LBS.
1- When I send a skewed prestressed concrete bridge with the back of abutment as reference line to LBC, the transferred model will end up having flared beams and wrong beam lengths. Is there a reason for that?
2- If I have a multi-unit bridge made of steel I-girder, it seems that I can only send one unit at a time to LBS. Is there a way to send all the units at the same time? What would be the workflow to design piers that are connecting those units?
Would sending the model to RM Bridge would solve these issues?
Hi,
1. Currently, LBC works only with the reference line as the centerline of the abutment and because of this, he tries to translate the positions. This is something that we are working currently on to enhance in the next releases.
2. The transfer from OBM to LEAP/RM is unit-based, so you will be able to send one unit at a time. You will need to add manually the loads coming from the neighboring unit.
