Good day,
I'm using OpenRoads Designer 2020 Release 3.
How do I set the conduit Length (construction) (m) to be equal to Length (User Defined) (m)?
i.e. I cannot type in a length while the conduit is active, I have to move the headwall node to adjust the length (which is not accurate). I could type in a Length (User Defined) but the Length (construction) (m) doesn't get updated accordingly.
Set is User defined at "True" and you can input the value in length (User defined)
Hi Jonathan,
Thank you for the response.
Is there a way to input the true length of a conduit rather than it being calculated by the positions of the start and stop nodes?
Length (Construction) is a read-only field, that is calculated by the software. It represents the true length of the conduit, which is clipped to the connection regions of the start and stop nodes.
You will find that the value differs from, and is slightly shorter than, the Length (Unified) field, which is calculated using the centre points of the start and stop nodes.
