Hi,
I have a bridge structure that instead of having abutments as the end supports it has piers instead. These end piers support other connecting structures that have abutments (this portion is not modeled in the file). I'm able to change these abutments (the program auto-generates) into piers, but when this is done the girders disappear from the 3D rendering (they remain in the analysis). In addition, when I add the loads in the substructure module I can auto-generate the DC/DW loads but not the live loads. Is there a way around this? How can I get my file to work?
I couldn't attach my file.
The workaround solution for this issue is to model the Pier Separately in the Substructure module.
If you are still facing issue then you can email me the file to "Vinay.Mysore@Bentley.com"
