I am using GC to carryout parametric option studies of viaduct structures but am having trouble with long BSplines which will not create a solid bridge deck structure. I have attached a simple example which indicates the problem.
I have a few sample points to define a 3000m long spline. I have then created an example deck "tube" by loft curves along the path. To create a deck solid I then cap the ends but this operation fails. If I shorten the Bspline to approx 250m then it all works. In my final file the deck cross section is more complex but the steps are the same.
Is their a limit to the size of GC elements? Any other suggestions gratefully received.
Thanks

Antony,
Your gct file runs well in the latest build. However, if there are errors related to Solid feature such as 3000m doesn't work but works for 250m. You may try to reset the solid work area before you start to execute any transaction.

Many thanks for the responses. I did upgrade my GC installation and it now works fine.
