Enhancement to the Coordinate System Tool: Include the chosen coordinates to future sheet views and models

To improve time management and work productivity, I thought modifying the Coordinate System tool to add a feature that will apply the County/Coordinate System to all future sheets and models created in the file. Currently, when we use the 'CreateF...

External Flow Utility Properties for Manholes

Catch basins have the following flow types that can be added: additional subsurface flow (cfs), known flow (cfs), additional carryover flow (cfs), external CA (acres), and external Tc (min). Manholes only have the option of known flow. Known flows...

Expand range options of Horizontal Feature Constraints

Horizontal feature constraints are a huge benefit to streamlining corridor modeling and tying design intent to civil geometry. The range options (-, 0, +) are pretty limited and often trigger components to behave improperly. Adding more options to...

Rules between reference files

Indicate in the reference manager if Civil Rules exist between files. When attempting to create a snap rule to an element that is in a reference file display a warning message. Prevent circular reference errors created by snap rules between refere...

Add Triangulation Limit Shape to "Create Terrain by Graphical Filter"

We have issues with creating a terrain by graphical filter. The command grabs all filtered features in a file(s) and adds them to a terrain. The problem with this approach is areas with a gap are ignored and triangles span gaps causing one large t...

Export Geometry XML from Read Only File

We have many users on the survey side that need to quickly jump in a design file and export out an alignment xml for staking. Non-Roadway users do not have write access to these files and the export geometry tool cannot be used in a read only file...

Option to overwrite Saved views when reprocessing named boundaries to sheets

Allow a checkbox to choose to overwrite or replace existing saved views when re-processing a set of named boundaries for output to sheets. This will help to maintain order in the files and avoid excess unused items. If not creating another 'versio...

Allow Design Scenarios to change proposed conduit properties and class based on depth of conduit.

The class of a pipe is primarily selected by the depth of cover over a pipe. Sometimes vehicle loads or construction loads have an influence on the class selection

Offset Horizontal Regression from Points

The ability to use an offset to create a single line alignment based on a regression line that was created by points. This ability would allow the user to create a centerline alignment based on monuments/survey points located a specified distance ...

Detection of clashes between rebars

When modeling a 3D concrete element like a bent cap with all the reinforcment, it would be helpful to have a tool to detect a clash between bars like minimum/maximum permitted spacing between them, or minimum clear cover to concrete edges, which r...
