This is an idea for improvement in Infraworks   Let's discuss about Segmental Bridges    There are three types of constructing bridges commonly used- Using Precast RCC Girders Using Pre-stressed girders Segmental Construction using post-tensioned segments. First option is already covered in Infraworks. Second option can be covered by adding few more options in the existing module of precast girder bridges. But third option needs to be added.   I suggest that you first understand about segmental bridge design/construction. Foor that reason, I am providing some links as below.   Please follow the link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Segmental_bridge for some information on segmental bridges. Also follow the link for a Youtube video  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=If7MS7ygzcY   A presentation available on the link below could be very useful.. file:///D:/Autodesk/Segmental%20Bridges/Segmental%20Bridge%20Constructin%20Techniques.pdf       In addition to this, there is lot of information about segmental bridges available on internet.   My suggestion is to include this category of bridges in Infraworks modeling options. It will be a great value addition to Infraworks because majority of bridges are constructed using this technology because of following reasons: Speed of erection Crew efficiency High quality Many options Top down erection possible minimal disruption to traffic and surface operations Efficient use of forms So, this is my Idea in brief. Depending on your response, we will proceed further.   Regards, Rajendra Deshpande Show More

Can we have the ability to curve girders of elevation please? Show More

Currently when you switch between a Steel Plate or Precast Concrete bridge any work done in either scenario is lost if you switch between the two options.   This is incredibly annoying when you have worked out your pier setting out and arrangements, for the client to then change their mind of the type of structure they want.   Can we have a switch where we can "lock" the arrangement and the only thing that changes is the bridge type and not the setting out.

When approaching a large intersection, it is common for median to transition into turn lanes and you cannot do that in road design if the turn lane would develop across the centerline. For example a 16ft median might have a 12 ft left turn lane develop in it leading up to an intersection. In this case, 4 ft of the left turn lane ends up across the centerline when the turn lane has fully developed and there is a remainder of 4 ft of median.  If the 16ft median is centered, it would have to be modeled as two 8ft median components straddling the centerline. You cannot make a widening that is split across the centerline. If you get cute with it and make an 6ft lane on one side and a 4ft lane on the other side then your intersection will be completely messed up because technically that 4ft piece of lane drives in the other direction.  I am aware of the workaround proposed by Jeff Bartels in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DeHXN-Pxo0  but I dont have time to make those weird split and offset centerline alignments, especially if the road is already designed by others and correct and all I get are xml exports.  We need to be able to cross the centerline with components or at the very least, designate a direction for components instead of them automatically getting a direction based on what side of the centerline they are on.  Show More
