Description

Enhanced bridge construction from start to finish is achievable with OpenBridge Designer, which boasts sophisticated interoperability that allows users to access data from Bentley’s civil applications while ensuring a smooth connection to their bridge design and analysis tools. This enables project teams to transition the conceptual model created in OpenBridge Modeler to the detailed design phase, facilitating a comprehensive workflow that includes analysis and design, as well as assessing construction work stages using Bentley’s LEAP applications, RM Bridge, OpenRoads Designer, ProStructures, ProjectWise, and more. By integrating all these functionalities within a single application, users can significantly boost performance, create intelligent models through user-friendly 3D parametric bridge modeling features, and enhance project outputs with smart data management and automated drawing production, thereby transforming the bridge delivery workflow. OpenBridge Modeler serves as a powerful 3D parametric modeling tool specifically designed for bridges, ensuring precision and efficiency throughout the project lifecycle. Ultimately, this streamlined approach not only speeds up development but also elevates the overall quality of bridge engineering projects.

Description

The development of formwork, positioning, and shop drawings encompasses all essential features necessary for structural design, including associative dimensioning, level indicators, hatching, and various symbols. It includes layouts for steel bars and mesh suitable for any reinforcement scenario, ensuring seamless integration with AutoCAD, along with customizable settings to meet office standards through styles. It allows for the direct generation of schedules, supports user-defined shapes, and facilitates the export of existing reinforcements for calculations based on the second-order theory. The system also offers a polygonal mesh layout and macros designed for creating parametric members, with the Macros Module requiring detailing capabilities. Additionally, it provides comprehensive check, production, and layout plans specifically for BAMTEC customized reinforcement carpets. This functionality enables the fully automated generation of reinforcement carpets, includes all necessary drawings consolidated into a single file, allows for the subsequent arrangement of areas, and features extensive editing options for various area specifications, whether by value or by the diameter and number of bars. Moreover, users can easily modify the designs to accommodate specific project needs, ensuring maximum flexibility in their structural planning.
