• Inroads Modeling/Target Aliasing issue

    I’m having some issues with my combined surface on a project. I have a 4 lane mainline with 4 ramps. I have target aliasing on the ramps so that the infield side end condition of the ramp finds the mainline model’s fill slope. This is fine until I flatten…
  • InRoads V8i Interchange Modeling

    Just a quick question out to everyone. I just hope I'm not going crazy. I swear I found a video out there a few months ago showing some modeling techniques at an interchange. More specifically, it showed some vertical gore tool usage where the ramp connects…
  • Superelevation Graphical editing of control lines

    When are we going to be able to graphically edit the superelevation control lines in Openroads? This needs to be resolved. Terry
  • Discrepancies converting existing ground TIN to DTM for use in Roadway Designer

    I noticed an issue with end conditions not tying into the existing ground line drawn in cross section cells. The problem occurred at several cross section and the error varied between 0.01' to upwards of 2'. After troubleshooting, it was noticed that…

  • Civil Geometry - Design Intent

    When creating horizontal or vertical civil geometry we should have a toggle that will retain or not retain the "design intent". Having to go back and remove constraints and "re-civilize" elements is just a lot of extra clicks. Further design intent, and…
  • Alternate Surface Issues: InRoads Modeling w/ multiple levels of repeating benches.

    I need some help! This seems like a bug, but I was curious to see if anyone else has had the same issue, or had a fix. Situation: (For the sake of simplicity, I made a new template with just the end condition in question) -I need two levels of repeating…

  • InRoads Gore Modeling-Best Practices

    I seem to be spending too much time cleaning up the overlapping or empty "wedges" of components when my ramps meet the mainline due to the angle of the ramp alignment. I was curious what others do in these situations, or do you simply leave the small…
  • Re: transition of template drops in a circular alignment

    Nikolin, This approach should work. Are you placing a 3m template drop at the start station and a 4m template at the stop station? Thomas
