Hi All, I'm defining a duct which is 0.17 x 0.15 m for total size in cross-section with a thichness of 2.5 cm. When enter this dimension in Feature-definition as "box", SUE changes it to 0.2 x 0.2 m and the moduled 3D-duct is also too big (i.e. 0.2…

How do you create a proposed pond surface when you have proposed contours that tie into existing? The drainage engineer has laid out proposed contours which tie into existing contours and would like the basin to display in the 3D view and be shown on…

Hello, I am in charge of getting our company switched over from PowerGEOPAK SS2 to PowerGEOPAK SS4. We have gone through some Bentley training and watched online tutorials and read information through here and general Google searches. I thought I had…

I am trying to build a template for a retaining wall in Open Roads. How do I get the depth of the retaining wall to vary with the terrain? Also, how do I add a fill end condition at the bottom of the retaining (this also needs to vary with the terrain…

I am working with a trial version of ConceptStation right now and the Export option is grayed out. Where can I find out what elements I can export? I would like to try this out and verify that I can export alignment, profiles, and corridors to Open Roads…

If you have multiple Pipes coming into one location, like Multiple Catch basin's draining to one Manhole, can you combine Multiple nodes created from extract utility into one node that represents the Manhole? then when I add my cell that represents my…

I am attempting to place some civil cells in a design file and am running into errors. In the plan view (top down) everything looks correct, but in isometric views, the civil cell is always attached to the surrounding terrain or template drops. the civil…

Hi, I have added a raised median in my roadway by way of linear templates for the curbs and a terrain+surface template for the grassed area in the middle. I am able to clip out the portion of roadway along the curbs by setting clipping references. However…

Hi, I am creating a 3D model for a proposed Highway and I need to trim the limits of the mesh for breaks in the road at bridges. I have found a couple different ways to trim the mash to match the correct limits, however, each method creates a bunch…

Hi, we are designing the drainage system for a road using PoverCivil 3D and SUDA for subsurface utilities. Do you know how i can create nodes for waterpipes without having them graphically displayed as chambers or manholes? Thanks.

I am creating a surface in Roadway Designer and when I run the surface the Tin that is automatically created will draw down to the bottom surface of the road base at certain points and then jump back up to the top surface of the road and it zig zags like…

I've got a simple 850' long and 12' wide bike path (single component with 4 points) whose cross slope varies several times between positive and negative. I've created two templates, one with the 1% positive cross slope and another with the 1% negative…

Hello, I've been trying to deal with z-fighting in the surfaces in my 3D view. I've managed to address some of it by ensuring terrrain surfaces weren't drawing triangles and by enabling front and back clipping (which seemed to have a mixed effect).…

When I made the new civil cell for the project I am working on, I set the elevation of the match line of the horizontal to 4' elevation just for the sake of its creation.And now, when I try to place the civil cell, it wants to end at the 4' elevation…

I am attempting to set up a project using Openroads (SS4) for a client that has limited civil geometry feature definitions set up. While determining all of the feature definitions that I need, there is obviously addition, subtraction, and modification…

Hello, I have been using the new OpenRoads software with limited success due to consistent crashes. The most troublesome and persistent issue that I have experienced so far is when I attempt to look at the point controls in the corridor objects dialog…

您好！ 我有一市政给排水项目，工程内容涉及提水泵站（当中有：办公楼、一体化泵站、水塔、集水井等）、上水管、雨水管、窨井、规划道路、过江顶管等构成，请问这样的项目应用BIM技术，其合理的解决方案是什么（先后用到哪些软件（那几个软件配合使用），达到最佳效果）？先后的顺序怎样安排最合理？ 谢谢！

Hello, I'm involved with transitioning to 3D modeling at my workplace which requires converting our 2D libraries to 3D. I've watched a few tutorials on working with OpenRoads / Civil Cells in Microstation, but there's several questions that I still…
