  • Girder length issue in Bridge Parametric Layout

    I am using Leap Bridge Concrete CONNECT Edition v17.01.01.07. I used ABC wizard to model a two span non continuous bridge (110'-104') with a 17.5 degree skew. The deck in span 1 is 66.6 ft while in span 2, it flares from 66.6ft in the interior bent to…
  • Additional Composite DW load?

    Is there a way to add a supplemental composite DW load for a poly wearing surface in Leap Concrete Bridge? I want to keep it separate from the Future Wearing Surface (Composite DW) load I already have. This is necessary to accurately calculate camber…
  • Bearing Spacing Dimensions Differ Between Main Bridge Model and Substructure Module

    I am designing a 2-span precast prestressed beam bridge in LEAP Bridge Concrete CONNECT Edition v17.00.01.01. The bearing dimensions along the pier cap are shown correctly in the following view under the 'Substructure' tab: However, when you click…
  • LEAP Superstructure - Prestressing Development Length

    When calculating the top and bottom stresses at the transfer and bearings, does LEAP take into account the development length? It seems that the stresses its calculating at the bearings and the transfer are higher than what they should be. Does LEAP use…
