Question:

What exactly are the SUDA/SUE structures?

Answer:

The structures used in SUDA/SUE are 3D MicroStation cells with specific properties assigned to them so that they can adjust to varying design criteria. They are not proprietary. Cell libraries used with legacy InRoads/GEOPAK/MX require enhancements for use inside OpenRoads.

Question:

Answer:

The user does not control this setting. There are instances when changes made to a civil cell can render it invalid. When that occurs, the Valid for Placement setting will change from "Yes" to "No". For example, if a linear template is applied to the civil cell, any changes that are made to the linear template after the civil cell is created will render the civil cell invalid. Even something as simple as changing the name of a feature in the linear template can result in an invalid civil cell.

The solution is to drop the civil cell and recreate it. This will restore the Valid for Placement setting to "Yes".
