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…

Hi all. I have a question about Reinf crack for prestressed concrete as follows: If you calculator stress bot of section beam in MinMz_Service exceeding allowable stress tension limit is 0,5 x sqrt(f'c), you can calculator reinf area to control crack…

Hello, Camber and deflections are reported at 10th points along the beam. I am modelling a longer span which will require more than 10 screed points. Is there a way to toggle the number of points? Or do I have to interpolate? Thanks,

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…

I am using CONSPAN in my design and have a couple of questions about the method in which the program performs calculations. Does CONSPAN design prestressed girders, at the interior supports, as reinforced concrete beams? According to AASHTO, LRFD 5.14…

Dear All, I am using RM Bridge for CFD to compare values with wind tunnel test. I am able to do cfd for predefined deck section but when I make my own deck section, In Analyzer --> Aero classes when i try to do the CFD error message displays ""Cross…

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…
