I'm attempting to simulate how thermal loads may affect the backfill behind an integral abutment by deploying PLAXIS 2D. I modelled the concrete bridge deck as a Linear Plate element and included a prescribed displacement near the top of the abutment…

Can LARS Bridge load rate ACROW Truss?

Hi Experts, I am new to OBM, I have done a few tutorials from online learning material. I wanted to know if OBM is the solution to Bridge modeling? Could you do the full detailed design of the bridge including all the components? (eg. On-Structure…

The bridge I'm analyzing has a flared girder and superstructure at the expansion piers. This is the cross section I have defined for this bridge: In order to directly obtain the area of steel required to resist direct shear; I removed the stirrups…

LEAP or RMBridge or STAAD pro.

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…

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…

Dear friend, The library of girder section on Leap Bridge or Leap ConSpan is so limited (Super T girder for example). Are there any solution to expand this one; it is a so wonderful if we can down load the extended library file for these program. If…

Dear Sir, Am a young engg. and new to staad pro. I just have to calculate an approximate moment calculation for moving loads for defined. Just for study purpose. i have created 2 beams and a set of loads defined for loading. i have generated load…

LEAP Bridge V8i (SELECTseries 6) Version 13.00.00.23 Within the Geometry tab I have modeled a two unit bridge, the first unit having three spans and the second unit having four spans. Is it possible to model the support located between the two units…

LEAP Bridge v8.1.0 incorporates the following enhancements: • The ABC Wizard can now directly read in alignment, cross-section and profile information from LandXML files. The bridge model can now be generated very accurately directly utilizing…

I am making Drawing Levels for a couple of the DOTs we work with. We have multiple users on different machines. Is there a way to copy some files from my machine to the others so they will have these Drawing Levels set up already? If so, which ones? Thanks…
