Precast girders geometrical elevation measurements
For bridge precast girders there are some elevation measurements that are an specific geometrical issue to achieve the final roadway profile while accommodating the girder camber and geometric effects of the roadway surface including super elevations…
“UltSup” Reinforcement Design
In schedule action “UltSup” with Reinforcement design selected, program calculates the necessary reinforcement area amount, required for the ultimate check capacity of the cross-section.
Presuming a plane strain over the cross-section, and a nonlinear…
Detailed Camber
A detailed camber analysis within the construction schedule is also possible, with the action DoCamber for each label or type of load. This is very useful for construction control where the contractor will check the design pre-camber curve against each…
Analysis - Camber
Due to the consideration of time effects and the respective active loads and elements in the construction simulation of bridges with concrete elements structural engineers, in general, understand that the final stage design of a bridge might be quite…
Leap Bridge Concrete - Camber
Can camber calculation methodology be modified from the PCI multipliers to time-dependent analysis / AASHTO equations?
Thanks
Zero dead load deflection when concrete strength changed in Data Modification
I have a bridge where I need one span to have a different girder concrete strength than another span. When I update the concrete strength in "Data Modification" and edit my beam strand pattern, all the dead load deflections are zero. I'm currently using…
LEAP BRIDGE CONCRETE V19 U3: CAMBER AND DEFLECTION VALUES NOT CALCULATED IN DESIGN SUMMARY
Occasionally when I print beam design results, I will get zero camber and deflection values reported in the design summary. I have to go back and rerun the analysis and that clears it up. Is this bug documented and is there a fix?
LEAP Bridge Camber Diagrams
The camber diagrams always reports values in 1/10 of span. Is there a way to get the camber values to report at spacing that I determine? For example, I would like camber values at 20 equal span splits instead of 10.
Thanks
Additional Composite DW load?
Is there a way to add a supplemental composite DW load for a poly wearing surface in Leap Concrete Bridge? I want to keep it separate from the Future Wearing Surface (Composite DW) load I already have. This is necessary to accurately calculate camber…

Conspan 10th points
From what I understand Conspan calculates 10th point increments from the total precast length and not the bearing to bearing span length. Is there a way to get camber and deflection readouts at the bearing to bearing 10th points? All the DOTs in New England…
