Is there a way to place two bearing pads per beam location as shown below?

Wondering if there is a way to model a curved or bent (broken-back) support line in OpenBridge Modeler? Thanks, Alicia

I would like to use a one-way workflow, to send only geometric data from OBM to LEAP Bridge Concrete for use in designing the Substructures. I can get the data from OBM to import into LEAP initially, but any geometric changes I make to the pier caps within…

I am pretty new to using Leap Bridge Steel, and have a question regarding a project I am working on. I have attached a general framing plan, and was wondering if Leap Bridge Steel was capable of modeling it, mainly due to the partial length girders. The…

I modeled a 4-span bridge as a single unit but now I need to update the model to add a unit so that each unit is 2 spans. Is there a way this can be done without revising the entire model?

Can we model open joint in pier cap using openbridge? If not, what would be the ideal solution to resolve this issue? See image below-

I have an OBM model built in a separate 3D file (File A). I referenced that dgn into a new dgn (File B) to create multiple drawing and sheet models. I have created mutliple 'drawing' models within File B with no problems. However, for the past few days…

I would like to place barrier rail off the deck and on a wingwall. The program wants me to put the rail on the deck. I cannot horizontally offset the rail off the deck either. Best I can do is have the rail at the edge of the deck (Approach Slab) but…

This is a long one, but it's been bugging me for a while and I strongly believe this needs to be improved. I have created a .cel to use as a functional component for a custom pier or custom abutment. This cell has 2 columns. I have placed this cell…

The super tee girders we use, have some slopes at profile changes in the longitudinal direction (see images below). These slopes are located at each internal diaphragm, and at the ends where the profile changes from a hollow super tee to a solid super…

There does not appear to be a way to model a built-up plate girder diaphragm in OpenBridge (I have to place diaphragms between adjacent girders - I cannot skip a girder, and I cannot model a built-up section), or to model a substringer system. I see notes…

I have created a functional component for my custom pier and placed it in the bridge model. The top surface of the cap has a 3% fall on it. When I place bearings in the model, they appear to ignore the slope of the cap and end up just floating in the…
