So this is more of a commentary rather than a question. we are still new to ORD and ran into the issues of wanting the detour vertical and mainline vertical to show on the same profile. Projected profiles are obviously not sufficient as they truncate…

Hi, Just wondering if there is a way to stop or limit the automatic production of geom points in profile view every time horizontal alignment is adjusted? Currently I am having to delete all points in profile every time I adjust a vertex in my horizontal…

I recently jumped to a new role doing infrastructure visualisation and was given a large highway project in ORD and OBM to export and eventually run through a renderer. After getting through the huge host of issues exporting from OpenRoad entails (Did…

I have an intersection that I am attempting to design. The inside EOPs are arcs as they are in a radius. Is there a trick to place an geometry arc between the two? I can get it to work with a simple arc but not with geometry. Any help is greatly appreciated…

Wow,... I could whip this stuff out in InRoads SS2 ... but I digress (it's a bad habit of mine these days living in a COGO world) I cannot figure out a way to layout Point #9 in this diagram. I've laid out Point #6 (the POB), Point #7 (the curve PC…

I've been working on the layout of a subdivision and can't get the InRoads Locate tools out of my skull. Those things were a beautiful set of tools for laying out COGO Points. So, does anyone know how I can do a very simple Direction - Alignment intersection…

I believe I've had this issue before but got it again today. Sometimes when exporting to DWG some geometry doesn't get exported. In this case it's a complex made up of a number of intervals, lines, arcs etc. I've tried a Compress and can't see any…

Hi, I want to import a selected territory region from the QGIS into Plaxis , but I have problem. I selected a region and converted it to the CSV file from the QGIS and used the Excel to save it as the txt file and imported the txt file into Plaxis…

This error keeps showing up when i am trying to trim the elements in my model. What could be the possible reason ? Thanks in advance

I am attempting to profile the gutter line for an intersection return. One one end of the return I want the profile to match the existing gutter line, and on the other end of the return I want the profile to match the proposed gutter line from my corridor…

Good Morning. I'm having an issue getting OpenRoads to grade a basin in the manner I want to grade a basin. What I want to do is take a element provided from another team member; for instance, an edge of sidewalk or a edge of shoulder (a 3D element…

Hi I'm new user of open building. I am having a issue with a simple cylinder. As you will see in sketch below, there is a blue and red cylinder end. The blue one was drawn randomly and then in it's properties the end points on either side were modified…

I have created a triangle with some parametric constraints. I have also created some Variables to calculate the angle (X). When (C) is at a higher point to (A-B), (X) will be a positive value. I have no issues adjusting for triangle ABC by inputting Lengths…

Hello, I am trying to have multiple runs using Python scripts in PLAXIS 2D v.22. Analyses are performed smooth and well in the beginning. Nothing goes wrong, I take the desired outputs at the end of the analyses. However, after a certain time / number…

I created a custom material and used one of the pattern cells as a geometry map. The problem is when I create a clip volume this pattern is not displayed in 1:1 ratio, like Y scale is different to X scale. On the picture below the red wall is generated…

For some reason, I cannot get my profile to display. It starts out like the first picture then i had to zoom in (a lot!) to get to the station range of my alignment as in picture 2. It use to show up with the entire proposed profile and ground line. if…
