I have received a model of an elevated bridge in MicroStation V8i which each span of the bridge is comprised of different or unequal elements, so, I made a group of that elements for each span and now I want to divide each span into equal segments.
I'm looking for a quick way to break various elements into equal segments (say 10). Just wondering if anyone can help me in this regard.
Thank you.

Thank you. I saw the advanced reply editor but I didn't see the attachment tab.
I attached the bridge model via this post. In this model, I made the left segments as a one group, and then, I want to divide this full span into equal parts, for example, 6 parts. So, I can do it for other parts of my model.
I would appreciate if you can help me in this regard.
Here is my main model.
i will look at these... i noticed you have a support running thru one of the bridge segments here in Purple.
if you rotate to a front view you can see the bridge pillar running straight up thru the bridge...
Yes, you are right. Actually, I received this model from a guy who is not available at moment. and I am working with two bridges that I showed you before and the one that is above them (the big curved one), so, at this moment it cannot cause a problem for me, but I try to fix it later. Thank you for your notification.
And thank you a lot for your time and help.
Shide,
these bridges don't have evenly spaced segments.
it seems likely that you would have to create an extrusion for each segment.
if you have an Alignment file, or reference file with a 3-d linestring representing the centerline, you could use that to extrude the individual segments to what ever length you need. working in 3d can be challenging in getting the profile and path of an extrusion in exactly the position you need to create it.
unfortunately I do not have enough spare time available to do this all for you.
possibly over this weekend or next, i could look at these at home...
p.s. why can't you use the Shared Cells already there?

Thank you very much Brent.
