I've just started to analyze hydrology data in OpenRoads Designer, and I'm wondering if there is a way to compute a composite runoff coefficient in a catchment I drew by hand rather than one auto-delineated by an inlet node. I know this is relatively…

Hi! I'm trying to use Create Terrain by graphical filter. I'm using a filter group which is set up by several filters. I'm using OpenRoads 2022 R3. Problem: On the left side of the road the creation of terrain surface is working as supposed to…

So we are working on a concrete project and currently we still produce pdf plans and drawings etc. so of course we need to do a concrete joint layout diagram with all the measurements etc. for now its still a 2d drawing but i have some thoughts/concerns…

Hello, I want to insert an embankment into my pond in ORD 2021 release 1. The enbankment should be on the elevation 27.90 and the bottom level is on the elevation 27. I already created a solid element that presents the embankment (pink one): …

I'm working on a rail design in OpenRoads Designer, and there is a gap in my 3D model. I have created a ditch alignment and profile. A ditch point is point controlled to the ditch profile to aid in ditch sloping. A part of the issue is that the end condition…

We try to build a library of item types that can be attached to Feature Definitions. In the Items tab in the Project Explorer properties like the length, area etc. can be read or filtered from the model. This works fine for Geometry (see image 1). For…

How do delete triangles in a complex terrain created from merged surfaces. The survey processing rules has been deactivated. I click on edit model to get the edit terrain model, click on delete triangles. I click on the terrain and it says that it isn…

Greetings and happy new year. I am a novice at ORD and need direction. I have created an existing terrain model from a corridor using a very simplistic template that is 500 ft. left and right of my alignment with a +2% cross slope (lower…

It seems, from the training videos I've seen, that the proper workflow for designing driveways (non-corridor) is as follows: Create horizontal and vertical for driveway CL/BL Create geometry offsets for driveway edges of pavement. Create arc…

Hi, I am using OpenRoads Designer v10.16.0.80 and was wondering if it is possible to increase the number of decimal places that show up when you hover over a contour. For example if i have 25mm contours they all round up or down to the nearest .1…

Hello. I am trying to create the terrain file from DTM in OpenRoads Designer Connect Edition. After the import is complete, when I display the contours, the contours are wrong. But if I import the terrain from the same DTM in Inroads V8i SS4, the contours…

Dear community, Could you please tell me that, how I can be able to insert a new point or modify the exiting point in a terrain model? Actually I would like to know that how it will be possible in CSV file and as well as in exiting terrain ( given by…

Hi I am looking to display the existing terrain contours as grey and the proposed terrain contours as black in a drawing sheet. Is there any way to do this with a complex terrain composed of the proposed and existing terrains? If not, what is recommended…

Two questions regarding Terrain Spot Elevations: First - I am trying to add the prefix "EL: " in my dimension style, but you are restricted to one character. Is there any way to have the prefix "EL: " in this label? Second - How do you remove the…

We are in the process of changing a number of projects from SS2 to ORD. Since there is not a 1 to 1 agreement between the XIN and the Feature Definition dgnlib, there are a lot of features, alignments etc that appear in ORD on the default level. Select…

Hello Eveyone, I have done some research and digging related to this issue already and have not be able to find an answer or better solution for what I need to do. The issue I am having is that I need to create a terrain model from 3D contours and breaklines…

I tried to create a terrain model from an ascii file, but my contours look very strange (see slanted lines). Was wondering if anyone can tell me what the issue is/ what I can do to fix it? I can go more in-depth of exactly what I did, but here is a…

Maybe I am just doing something wrong so feel free to call me out on that too. Here is the problem as it seems to occur, In PA we have some LIDAR data stored as DEMs it tends to be cleaner than the LAS data that is also provided. It actually is in PA…

Hello, I'm trying to create a terrain from a Graphical Filter by Feature Definitions. The Filter Group has a Filter for Break Lines and a Filter for Spots. Whenever I run it, I get an error of "No Matching Elements Found" even though there are definitely…
