Hi If we define bar length, is leap bridge software have capability to deduct development length based on dia of bar and calculate flexure check at that point.

Hello. I'm wondering how LEAP Version 21.01.00.22 calculates the maximum axial load displayed in the diagram. The diagram displays a maximum axial force allowed of 1802 kips. As expected the 1802 kips doesn't change regardless of the load combination…

I am performing a load rating of concrete box girders. The rating factors/tons is not displayed since the Inventory Design Load Rating Factor > 1. Is there an option to make the program display the factors even if the RF is greater than 1 or is that information…

I am using Leap Concrete Version 18.02.02.03 for a multi column pier design that includes seismic forces. I need to apply a response modification factor for the columns and the help guide states that this can be modified in the Seismic Parameters. However…

I am using Leap Bridge Concrete to design a skewed wall pier. After analyzing the pier, I noticed that for the braking force, that the sum of the forces in the z-direction at the top of the wall did not equal the sum of the forces in the z-direction at…

How does LEAP Bridge Concrete calculate the reactions for DL-Comp. (DW)? I added up all the DW reactions and compared to a hand calc of utlities and overlay loads. The total DW is nearly 4 times greater than my hand calcs. I have 4 beam lines with 0.05…

In the Shear/Moment Envelope (&Reactions) Design output what is the difference between live load Max, Truck, and Lane? Is the max HL-93 including truck and lane loading? I have a 6 span continuous concrete superstructure.

How does RC Pier (LEAP SubStructure) account for skew when calculating the bearing reactions for the Auto Generated Live Loads. I can replicate the reactions when there is no skew, but I have issues when skew is applied. Any assistance on the matter would…

I am using the LEAP Bridge Substructure module to design a pier for a continuous 4 span structure using HS20 LFD loads. In the AASHTO Standard Specifications, it gives you a few options for the loading. One is that you can use a lane load with one concentrated…

LEAP or RMBridge or STAAD pro.

Does anyone have calculation verification for the live load auto-generation function in RC-PIER? Or has anyone else had problems verifying the LL output from RC-PIER?

I have a single span bridge using I-girders that I need close to the max amount of strands in. These are all straight strands, and I've had to debond to 4 different lengths from the end. The longest debond is 25' of my ~90' girder. When I look at the…

Hello, There appears to be a font compatibility issue. In the program LEAP GEOMATH V8i, it looks like you should be able to adjust the window in order to see the rest of the menu, however there is no option to move it. This issue is not resolved…

Is there any way to get a customized output in CONSPAN or LEAP Bridge? For example if I only want to print stresses at the same 4-5 locations along with some other outputs. Is there any way to accomplish this?

Dear supporter, I study to use Leap Conspan with I section girder; normally, the cross section of this type of girder has the difference from middle and end position (end cross section is bigger than middle one). I could not found any function to describe…
