Ability to Analyze Elevations in Dynamic Cross Section

Users would like the ability to quickly place a point in the dynamic section view to pull elevation information. It would be nice to have that text remain in place as you move from section to section, similar to the cut/fill volumes between sectio...

Corridor Modeling for 90 degrees corners

In modeling the road or site with geometry corner in 90 degrees or sharp, the small arc of corner is required in order to model the round corner. So that no overlap between 3d linear geometry. Software should provide the option to allow the corner...

Ability to have multiple superstructure types in one bridge definition. For example, steel main spans with concrete approach spans is currently defined as 3 bridges

Many bridges have approach spans that are smaller in length to the main spans. For example, a bridge that crosses over a railroad ROW may have prestressed concrete in the approach spans and a continuous steel bridge over the railroad, then the end...
