Group Sets of Reinforcement Together

In the substructure reinforcement maybe need to be modeled in separate groups (using irregular dispatch, single rebar distribution etc.) to avoid obstructions like plies or girders that are cast into the concrete abutments/wingwalls. This may nece...

Profiled with Equations - Gap/No Gap Option

Add the ability to add a Gap in the profile after an equation so the major stations still align with the major grids in the profile drawing model beyond the equation. The functionality would be similar to GEOPAK's Gap/No Gap option when plotting a...

Inverse Tool - Be able to select fieldbook points and geometry points

There is an “inverse points” tool, but the key in for point numbers doesn’t work for geometry points, only for fieldbook points. Would like the report it created include an interior angle between three points (right now it only has the bearings ...

Civil labeler only works for 3D linear features (points). It`s impossible to annotate the slope from the terrain between two points. If you try that, the whole terrain section is selected and the command fails. A great example is a cross section o...

Separate vertical alignment model from horizonal geometry

One of my biggest pain points about ORD is if the horizontal geometry is dropped or broken, the vertical is consequently lost as well. This creates significant rework from a design and plan production standpoint (connected named boundaries). One w...
