Edit Begin and End Support for Deck and Beam Groups

Let's say there are 4 spans and the user defines a bridge with 5 supports and the deck and beam groups run from support 1 to support 5. Then the engineer learns that we don't want this long of a bridge, only 3 spans. Please add the ability to chan...

Warning if we attach a dgn with ss4/ss10 schema data

As projects are still transitioning to ORD, I propose for a warning in ORD if someone tries to attach a reference dgn file that includes ss4/ss10 civil schema. As I understand it can be dangerous to mix these types of data especially if something ...

Limit the types of models that can have coordinate systems

Would be nice if the non-indexed profile models and cross section models prevented users from being able to assign coordinate systems. Also would be nice if coordinate systems weren't able to be attached to sheet models either. Since coordinate sy...

LEAP Concrete LFD LLDF

I believe that LEAP isn't accurately calculating the LLDF for LFD. It appears to currently compute the LLDF for moment and shear correctly, but it doesn't appear to calculate the LLDF for reactions at all. If it were calculating the LLDF for react...
