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…

Hi, Dear All, How can we change the default folders of a existing workset in OpenBridge Modeler? Thanks, Dong

Hi, Dear All, How do we model a transition/stepped bent in OpenBridge Modeler? Say a bent is between a steel girder span and the pcc girder span. The girder depths are different in adjacent spans here. How do we model the stepped bent cap in OpenBridge…

Hi, I am trying to model a Pile/Columm, but in the library menu it doesn't let me disable the cap. Pier that i am trying to model: Best Regards Roger

Hi, Is there a way to create a background mask behind field text using the Civil Labeler? Even with an appropriate text style with a background, the background does not apply to field text. In fact it doesn't apply to field text in standard Microstation…

Hello there. I would like to get “span name” of Deck by using expression and show it in properties ,just like showing “Span name” of BeamSegment in Fig.1. Figure.1 For this purpose，I tried to use an expression which is "this.GetElement().Deck_SpanName…

I have an issue where I need to use a strut on a Pier from a LEAP Steel Model. When trying to add the strut in the Substructure Design portion, I am unable to click OK, however I do not see anywhere on the pier definition in the LEAP Steel model to add…

Hello, I,m trying to create a Bent where 2 separate bridges meet, is this even possible to model in Openbridge Modeler? Ultimately, I want to transfer the model to LEAP to run the analysis.

Is there a way to set up the OBM drawing interface/layout to look like what we're used to seeing in MicroStation v8i? For example: For someone who has used v8i for quite some time, it would make for an easier transition to OBM.

Is it possible to copy an entire bridge, to a new alignment? The use case would be if we needed to model multiple bridges that are all almost identical, we can model one perfectly then copy to a new location and modify as needed. Trying to copy paste…

Hello, it would be a great addition if we could create barriers on wing walls with elevation provider, same as we can do for creating barriers on barriers with R2 version of OBM. Could you please consider this for future release. thank you

Using 2021 Release 2. For some reason the Apply Skew to Solid option only shows up on some piers. The first screenshot has a rectangular cap and shows "Apply skew to solid", the second screenshot has a tapered cap and doesn't show this option. Does this…

After setting up both Text Styles and Dimension Styles multiple times, any time I try to change the text within a dimension the style is converted to Style (none). This happens immediately after placing any dimension in any style, after directly changing…

I am trying to set up some custom parametric piers in OBM 2022 Release 2. The option to place the slab level or parallel to the deck appears to not be working, and always provides an angle of 90 deg. for the cap angle. I have created a test model that…

Is it a known issue that the Civil Labeler Tool in OBM do not read the coordinates or am I doing something wrong? Everything else works fine except the N:E Coordinates when I do 2D Plan annotations.

In wich file can I change the default text that is generated in the Create Superstructure Cross-Section Drawing tool? Is there a text favorite or xml file where I can customize it?

It would be a great addition if we could create Wingwalls similar to the abutment cap with a Backwall offset option like this picture. Right now we have a workaround to create it with barrier but it would be a lot easier to add an offset parameter similar…

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…

Is there a way or a reference video to model Integral Abutment in OpenBridges? I tried to model one shown below; But in Openbridge Model when I choose it be Integral - 'True' it modifies the template I created. Is there a reason for it?

Good Morning, I'm having an issue when placing the supportlines. The line placed in the 2D layout does not fall exactly on the alignment stationing (See Figure below; Pink line is supportline & white line is the tick mark). I changed one of my bents…

Hi, I am using the OpenBridge Modeler. I tried to move the edge but it seems something is locked and the moving direction is not following the cursor. As the picture is shown below, I was pointing at the white line but the edge is snaping as shown below…

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 used the Place Path tool to place a traffic barrier railing along my bridge. I now need to adjust the start station of the path. When I select the barrier and try to change the Start Station, nothing happens. All the other Rule Properties are working…

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…
